Living in the United States intends in 2010 to spend on gifts for Easter, a total of about $ 14 billion. It is reported by Bloomberg, citing data from IBISWorld.
Spending on Easter gifts this year grew by 1.8 percent – the first time in the past three years, said the agency. In 2009, spending Easter in the U.S. declined by 8.3 percent, and in 2008 – one percentage point.

It is also anticipated that the sale of eggs before Easter in 2010 will grow by 25 percent.Typically, sales increased almost twice, but in 2000 reduced because Americans are increasingly being used to decorate homes or for gifts, plastic imitation.

Easter, which in 2010 falls on April 4, took fourth place in the list of holidays on which Americans spend the most money. In the first place – Christmas at the second and third – Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day.
