This year, the National Retail Federation is projecting that Americans will spend more than $600 billion dollars celebrating the holidays. Most of that money will be spent on gifts. According to a recent Gallup survey, the average U.S. adult plans to spend $781 dollars on gifts this year, which is significantly up from $704 last November.
