Holiday Spending Surge Boosts Economy
Update: 2025-12-31
Description
Holiday shoppers in the US boosted sales by 3.9% from early November to Christmas Eve, according to Mastercard SpendingPulse. This surge was driven by deeper discounts on electronics, furniture, appliances, and toys, with consumers splitting their spending sharply between thrift stores and luxury chains. Despite middle and low-income spending slowing, buy-now-pay-later options helped stretch budgets, contributing to a 4.3% annualized growth in the third quarter. Everyday buyers once again propelled the economy forward into 2026. Checkout Solipillow.com
