The National Retail Federation tells us - surprise - that Mother’s Day spending is going the way of Christmas spending and most other spending this year, namely, down.
The group’s annual Mother’s Day Consumer Intentions and Actions Survey tells us that Americans will still spend more this Sunday ($14 billion) than we did on Easter, but less on Mom this year (an average of $123.89 per person) than we did last year (when we spent an average of $138.63).
