Loeffler also broke down the strong state of the U.S. economy, which is proven by indicator such as strong GDP growth, job creation, confidence, and spending. Loeffler also acknowledged the disconnect between those positive indicators and how Americans are feeling on the ground, but noted the progress the Trump admin has made as they work to climb after the economic damage of the Biden years.

To water down our fantastical wishes. Poise to give, and try to forget about receiving. But we CAN reclaim the enchanted miracle energy of childhood wish granting!  This money date is all about RECEIVING in the most magical way, believing 1) we are worth it and 2) magical, magical things can happen in 2026 and beyond.      Visualization: Eyes of Wonder. In this visualization, borrow the eyes of your inner child as you review your life. Your inner child holds so much vast wisdom for you. They can see your blind spots, what you've taken for granted, and where you can PLAY even more.

With Thanksgiving next week, holiday shopping kicks into gear.Retailers hope people are ready to spend on gifts this year, while shoppers seek the trendiest gifts and best deals.What factors could play a role in what gifts and how many land under the tree?

New data shows that more Kiwis will have to take on debt ahead of this coming Christmas season. A nationwide survey by MYOB showed 35 percent expected to feel financially better off in a year's time, while 38 percent expected to be about the same, and 24 percent believed they would be worse off. Personal finance expert Mary Holm says more Kiwi households will be struggling to afford presents for their kids, but there are workarounds. "There's buying only op-shop gifts or second-hand books, which could be quite fun, going and rummaging around bookshops to find the right gift for people."

The holidays can be a special time full of connection with coworkers, friends, and family, but they can also be a season when money feels out of control. Between travel, gifts, parties, food, and "just one more present" moments, it's easy for two months of spending to undo months of progress. For many military families, the pressure hits even harder with long travel distances, family expectations, and the feeling that memories have to come at a price tag. In this episode, I'm breaking down how to prepare for the holiday season in a way that keeps your financial goals front and center, so you can enjoy all the celebrations going into debt or starting the New Year stressed out and behind. https://milmo.co/podcast/holiday-spending-tips For more MILMO, follow at: MILMO.co ItsMILMO on YouTube @itsmilmo on X @itsmilmo Instagram @itsmilmo LinkedIn @itsmilmo Facebook

We'd love to have your feedback and ideas for future episodes of Retail Unwrapped. Just text us!In a wide-ranging conversation, Shelley and Tom McGee, president and CEO of ICSC, discuss a mix of consumer trends that will impact holiday spending. It might surprise you to know that Gen X controls 33 percent of all spending (although only 19 percent of the U.S. population); so why are retailers still ignoring them? There's $1.4 trillion wealth transfer to this generation that nobody's talking about. Overall, consumers are resilient but cautious, price-sensitive and selective, focusing on value and budgeting more carefully making discount retailers the beneficiaries. Next, while tariffs haven't dramatically increased prices yet, the real impact has been on consumer mindset and timing — people buy earlier, avoid waiting for discounts, and are cautious about overspending. Gift cards are increasingly popular as practical, budget-friendly gifts that also appeal to younger, sustainability-minded generations. In terms of retail development, there's a supply-demand mismatch in retail real estate. There's a strong retailer demand for well-located suburban spaces, but they are facing limited new construction. Retail sales have risen about 82 percent since 2009, but physical retail space has only grown 7 percent. Tom reinforces not to rule put physical stores; they remain critical for browsing and as fulfillment centers. Listen and learn about how this confluence of trends results in a mixed prediction for holiday.Special Guest: Tom McGee, President and CEO, ICSCFor more strategic insights and compelling content, visit TheRobinReport.com, where you can read, watch, and listen to content from Robin Lewis and other retail industry experts, and be sure to follow us on LinkedIn and Twitter.
