It is hard to believe that the Holiday season is only a few short weeks away! With back-to-school shopping completed, and the holidays quickly approaching, many families are now planning and budgeting for what to buy their loved ones this season.

According to eMarketer.com, holiday sales are expected to see a 5.7% increase to $885.70 billion — the largest jump since 2011. eMarketer also expects US retail ecommerce sales to rise as a whole, with the biggest growth coming from mcommerce sales as consumers become more comfortable buying on their smartphones.
