The current health crisis is likely to have had various consequences on the purchasing behaviors and habits of people in France. The purchase of Christmas gifts is no exception, and it seems that this year, Christmas shopping is taking a different turn than in previous years. At the beginning of November 2020, the source had therefore asked French people how much they thought they would end up spending on Christmas gifts since the announcement of the containment and closure of some stores.
Yet it appeared that the most significant variation concerned the difference between the budget dedicated to online purchases and that for in-store purchases: between, before, and after the announcement of the containment, the budget for Internet purchases had indeed increased by 21 euros, while the budget for in-store purchases only reached 85 euros, compared to more than 200 euros in 2018.
