Key Insights
1.
Where and how Americans are shopping — and what they’re buying — varies wildly by income level. The habits of high-income consumers, who shop online the most frequently, are often in stark contrast to those who make less.
2.
‘Tis the season, earlier again: 42% of consumers will have started their holiday shopping by the end of September. High-income shoppers are the most likely to get a jump on things — half of them are already checking off their gift lists.
3.
When shopping on Amazon, some can afford to be pickier than others. 48% of high-income consumers consider the Climate Pledge Friendly tag “very important” in choosing products, compared to 24% of those with lower incomes.
About the Report
Methodology
Jungle Scout conducted an anonymous survey between Aug. 3 and Aug. 6, 2023, among 1,000 U.S. consumers about their buying preferences and behaviors. Respondents represented 49 U.S. states, all genders, and ages 18 to 75+, as well as various employment types and income levels.
Respondents were asked questions about their behaviors and spending for the July to September period. Some of the analysis in the report compares responses from this quarter to previous surveys conducted by Jungle Scout, where data has been collected on a quarterly basis since June 2020.
