Christmas Shoppers Plan Restraint

BNZ-Nine Rewards Consumer Trends Survey


Christmas Shoppers Plan Restraint


A full pdf copy of the BNZ-Nine Rewards Consumer Trends Survey is attached and also loaded here.


Our monthly survey of NZ consumers has found that a net 30% are optimistic about the state of the economy in a year’s time which is down just slightly from November’s net 35% outcome. A high net 47% plan raising spending from November but there is clearly a seasonal effect in play here. Asked whether they intend spending more or less than last Christmas a net 17% said that they plan spending less. Retailers therefore should be cautious in their expectations for sales this December.

The survey is made possible by Nine Rewards, an online market research panel of over 70,000 people in New Zealand. www.ninerewards.co.nz
