Companies Seeking Holiday Profits

by Global Patriot on November 28, 2009

It’s that time of year, when companies cross their fingers and hope for a robust holiday season to boost sales, and considering the year we’ve had, the next thirty days will be critical for many corporations. But how far will a company go to bring in much needed profit?

  • The area I live in is rich in local produce, it's just that local shops close at 3-4pm and often don't open at all on Sundays and Wednesdays.

    I try to organise myself, but sometimes I submit to the ease of the bigger chains.

    I'm not 'buying' any gifts this year and many of my friends are re-evaluating their spending; donating to charities etc. Sometimes it's purely financially motivated: cheapr to buy a cow for an african village than Xboxes, games etc for 6 nephews/nieces, or other toys or colthes that will be old/unwanted or out-grown in a year.

    And even if people are feeling flush, the poll above highlights alternate motives for changing spending habits.
  • I love the notion of donations instead of presents, there's really nothing that I need, and there are so many that need so much - great idea Alex!
  • Economies are crazy. My family and I recently moved to Montana where local trade is very high. We moved from Salt Lake City, where, even if local trade was available, the onslaught of goods was too much to bear a real, sustainable, local economy.

    We moved because of smog. It's thick there.
