Interesting Article on Spending

[Rob Markoff]

While the current round of stinginess may simply be a response to the economic downturn, some analysts say consumers may also be permanently adjusting their spending based on what they’ve discovered about what truly makes them happy or fulfilled.

Fascinating article.

Could bode well for our industry because most of the items our customers bring in for framing are of a personal nature, and therefore items that make them happy. Win-win, unless we go nuts and try to upsell too much.
