Default Christmas is coming.... What gifts will be HOT this year?

Here's the way the trend seems to be going....

The trend seems to be that people are buying (for others and for themselves) more LOW-TECH gifts which ground them in the "real world"....

Among the fastest growing categories in the home decoratives industry were frames (sales up 97 percent); tabletop gifts (up 32 percent); vases/urns/pots (up 32 percent); and decorative boxes and tins (up 19 percent).

Interestingly, HALLOWEEN decorations went up (by 53% last year), while Christmas decorations went down (by 11%)....

Sales of music boxes grew by a whopping 74%....

LOW-TECH isn't dead.... Some people are reacting against all the high-tech stuff, so it seems good to keep a foot in the REAL WORLD with physical products if you have a good gift product!
