Northbrook, Ill. - March 31, 2011 - Easter may not bring in revenue like Christmas or Halloween, but it's still a huge spending holiday for most Americans. In 2010, Americans spent over $14 billion on food, gifts, candy, and other products for their Easter celebrations, according to a March 24, 2011 article on TheStreet.com. However, Nikoleta Panteva, a retail analyst at market research firm IBISWorld commented to CNBC.com that food sales especially would see an increase because Easter "is a family holiday, and consumers are more likely to splurge on a good meal rather than decorations or greeting cards" ("The Easter Shift: Myth or Reality?").
In fact, IBISWorld found that the majority of the average $120 each American spends on Easter went to food ($37.45), gifts ($18.16), and candy ($17.29) (CNBC.com). That leaves less than $17 dollars to spend on Easter decorations. If you're like most Americans, and you'll be prioritizing a family feast over holiday decor in your Easter budget, you'll need to find a creative way to bring some springtime cheer to your Easter party without breaking the bank. Check out the Hop Into 7 Free Easter Crochet Patterns eBook from AllFreeCrochet.com.
