Jewelry Gifts
by tammy on December 13, 2005
Is jewelry at the top or the bottom of your holiday gift list this year? Some retailers are worried that you've got it too low on the list.
Per an article posted on Reuters: " High oil prices and the lack of a "must-have" bling gift item may combine to dull this year's finish for some jewelry retailers, industry analysts say. [...] After polling people on what holiday gifts they planned to give, Britt Beemer, chief executive of consumer trend tracking firm America's Research Group, said jewelry was lower down on shopping lists this year, especially among consumers of luxury brands. "The only thing helping jewelry this year is that corporate Christmas parties will still be strong, and a lot of jewelry gets bought for those occasions," said Beemer."
