Poll: How will your Christmas spend compare to last year?

Shoppers are predicted to spend a little bit more this Christmas.

CHRISTMAS IS TAKING hold, with those same heartwarming/nauseating songs playing in every shop you enter and Met Éireann uttering its first warnings of snow.

It’s also a time when our pockets feel a bit lighter than usual.

Figures released earlier this week pointed towards an increase in our Christmas spend from last year, but a Deloitte survey shows gloomy levels of consumer confidence.

What about your situation? How will your Christmas spend compare to last year?


Poll Results:

I'll spend less (2567)
I'll spend the same (1809)
I'll spend more (1191)
Christmas! (341)
I don't know (251)
