Key Highlights
CHRISTMAS NOT IMMUNE TO WIDER ECONOMIC PROBLEMS
While a slightly higher proportion of consumers said that they
spent more this Christmas compared to the year previous, in the
context of rising inflation - particularly in food - the overall picture
was much less rosy - with volumes in decline.

6. Brief Summary
Although consumers do prioritize Christmas to a much larger
extent than other occasions, there has been an increasing
tendency to reduce the more wasteful aspects of spending.
EVOLVING VALUE EXPECTATIONS IN FOOD
Running in parallel to a rising focus on price, which is driving
higher promiscuity among consumers, has been evolving value
expectations. The importance of quality holds marked importance
at Christmas. Against this backdrop, private label has come to
represent a key differentiator among the major grocers,
particularly considering the majority now operate a form of
branded price matching.

7. Brief Summary
INSPIRATION AND IDEAS IN GIFTING
With money tighter than ever, consumers are keen that the gifts
they buy are of value to recipients. As many people now own most
of the things they want, selecting good gifts has inevitably
become more difficult. Retailers should aim to provide consumers
with ideas and inspiration on websites, in-store and via
catalogues and magazines. This helps to encourage spending and
allows brands to engage with consumers, hopefully stimulating
loyalty in the process.
