Would you rather get a gift or be gifted an experience?

According to a recent American Express Amex Trendex report on shopping for the holiday season, consumers want to give something special, like a shared fun experience. Roughly one in three said they plan to gift their significant other or their children an experience. (AAA projects 119.3 million people will travel 50 miles or more from home from Saturday, Dec. 21, 2024 to Wednesday, Jan. 1, 2025.)
