Patch's Poll: How Will You Pay For The Holidays?

Cash, debit card, credit - how are you planning to cover the holiday gift costs?

A new survey by _Burst Media_, on upcoming holiday spending trends shows that most holiday shoppers will use cash to pay for their purchases this year.

In a press release, Burst Media said the October survey of more than 650 online U.S. adults ages 18 or older showed that "to keep from paying off those overflowing stocking stuffers well into spring, most are choosing to bypass the plastic, with only one-fourth (25.3%) of shoppers saying they will primarily use credit cards to make their seasonal purchases. More than one-half (54%) will primarily be  using debit cards, cash or checks."
