Last week, after being inundated with heavy headlines
about the auto industry bailout, the flailing stock market and the
troubled economy, we decided to lighten things up a bit. For last
week’s AMN Poll, we asked: “Was your total household spending on
holiday gifts higher, lower or the same compared to 2007?”
According to our survey results, 60 percent of respondents said they
spent less on holiday spending this year, as compared to 2007. A mere
14 percent of generous gift givers said they spent more and just a
little more than one-quarter of respondents said they spent the same as
last year. We hope you weren’t among those who found more coal than
candy in your stockings this year!
THIS WEEK’S POLL
In keeping with the holiday themes, tell us: What’s your New Year’s resolution? To cast your vote, go to aftermarketNews.com and scroll to the “Poll” section at the bottom of the page.
