With the holidays around the corner and inflation still running hot, many consumers are starting their shopping early this year. Because overall product prices are up about 10%, shoppers are likely make fewer purchases and give fewer gifts, while spending roughly as much as they did collectively last year. That breaks down to an average of $1,455 spending this year per household, according to Deloitte's 2022 Holiday Retail Survey .  Americans are are expected to purchase an average of nine gifts, down from 16 last year, while also pulling back on non-gift purchases like holiday décor. "Consumers are going to spend as much as they did last season, but they are limiting the people they're spending on. They only have a certain amount of money, so they have to tighten that list of who they're buying presents for," said Howard Dvorkin, chairman of Debt.com. "Because of the increased pricing, their dollars won't go as far as they did last year." Gift

To help avoid relapse while navigating the holiday season, consider these tips from the experts at Alsana, a national eating recovery c

Retirement is the moment in our lives when we think we'll finally take those bucket-list travel trips of a lifetime. But ironically, when we have the time and a bit of savings, a recent study suggests that we might actually spend far less on travel in retirement than we expect to—the good news being, that we might actually need less money to retire. Economists often talk about the ideal of consumption smoothing to financially plan in the best way. That's where we spend and borrow lots when we are young, earn and pay it off when we are middle aged (when we are living through our peak earning potential), and save enough to retire and live in older age on our savings. The problem is that it's tricky to work out how much money we might need. We don't know future interest and bank rates, how our households and its needs might change and most importantly, we don't know how long we will live. So how can we know how much money we will need? Some economists suggest t

When Eric Goldmann took his first business trip after 15 months of being grounded by the COVID-19 pandemic, the avid road warrior sensed he was getting back to his true self. Goldmann, who traveled almost weekly in pre-pandemic times for his health-care technology sales job, was so pumped for his first in-person customer meeting in June 2021 that as soon as he landed in Jackson, Miss., “I just ran up to the Hertz counter, grabbed the keys, left the airport.” “I just felt — I felt alive,” Goldmann said. It wasn’t until after his meeting he realized that in his thrill to get back to business travel, he’d forgotten to claim his checked bag. More than two years after the pandemic disrupted business trips and corporate junkets, work travel is ramping up. Atlanta-based Delta Air Linessays it has seen strong business travel this fall, a season that typically brings more work trips and conferences after the summer break. Delta is based at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, the busie

TEMPO.CO , Jakarta -  State-Owned Enterprises (SOE) Minister Erick Thohir hoped that more Indonesian people are interested in traveling domestically instead of abroad. Erick made the statement during the opening of the 2022 Garuda Travel Fair. "It's okay to travel to foreign countries. It's not prohibited. But if you have more fortune, for example, traveling abroad once and traveling in Indonesia twice," said Erick during his speech at the opening of the 2022 Garuda Indonesia Travel Fair in Indonesia Convention Exhibition (ICE) BSD, Tangerang on Friday, October 28, 2022. Other than its beautiful destinations, Erick argued that vacationing in Indonesia is better amid the lingering COVID-19 pandemic because there are various natural tourist attractions.

PLYMOUTH, Mich. – More than 200 people rallied in Plymouth at the historic Penn Theatre to save a holiday tradition. The crowd was hoping to convince Paramount Pictures to allow the theatre to hold a screening of It’s a Wonderful Life, which the theatre has been doing every holiday season for 15 years. For many, the holiday season isn’t complete without seeing the Christmas classic on the big screen. Paramount granted exclusive licensing to the film and put a moratorium in place which prohibits the theatre from playing it. “If it was just a moratorium, that would be one thing, but they’ve given exceptions to several other theaters,” said Melanie Elliott. The exemption was for theatres that played the movie every year. “Only year we missed was 2020 because we closed because of COVID,” said Charlene Falardeau. Elliott spent 16 years working at the theatre, which is owned by her mother. The theatre has been showing the film since 2007 but skipped a year due to the pandemic in 2

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. With the rise in energy prices, interest rates, rents and utility bills, consumers don't necessarily have the same purchasing power as they used to, leading to a shift in their behavior. Consumers now have a new scale of preferences, with luxury almost out of reach for most of the population. Small and large businesses are already feeling the impact. According to reports from Salesforce , global same-website sales were down 3% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2022. Significant contributors to this decline are traffic (2%) and shopper spending (1%). New holiday season. New consumer. As we quickly move into the most competitive and profitable time of the year, retailers are shifting their priorities. Consumers are more selective in buying decisions, so impulse buying is less common. The current inflation rate also has an effect when it comes to maintaining profit margins.

Coming next on The World and Everything in It : celebrating heroes of the faith. Halloween’s next week and many Americans are putting on costumes and handing out candy. But some Christians have their sights on a different celebration. Here’s WORLD Reporter Anna Johansen Brown. ANNA JOHANSEN BROWN, REPORTER: All Saints’ Day isn’t a flashy holiday. If you walk down the party aisle at your local Walmart looking for themed table decor, you’re going to be out of luck. But it’s a holiday that Christians have observed for centuries. It started long before trick or treating took center stage. BROWN: It's a heroes of the faith sort of day. Paul Brown is a research pastor and an adjunct professor at Trinity International University. BROWN: Abraham, of course, is a saint from the Old Testament, but
