Christmas Shopping

Looks like we’re going to be partying like it’s 2007 this holiday season. According to a new Gallup poll, adults in the U.S. are planning to spend about $830 on average on Christmas gifts this year.

Wondering when all those big stores will be opening and offering those massive discounts this Black Friday?
