2008 Holiday Gifts to Focus on Practicality and Value
OMAHA, Neb., Nov. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- While the hustle of holiday shopping
continues as always, difficult economic conditions are prompting consumers to
focus more on finding practical gifts that represent a good value this holiday
season. The sale of luxury and high-ticket items are projected to decline,
while consumers shop more for more useful gifts, as well as gifts that can be
shared with family and friends.
