Unique experiences give both the gift giver and the gift recipient more joy than material items, and this year, more shoppers are joining the trend of purchasing experiential gifts.
DENVER, Colo. — Even if you’re feeling the pinch of inflation, chances are you’ve still purchased at least one or two gifts this holiday season. Overall, most of us are spending the same amount of money this year as we did last year, but more people are opting to buy an experience for a loved one over a material gift.
“You smell things. You see things. You hear things that you just don't see when you're in a car, and there is a feeling of freedom that I think we all need after being cooped up for two years,” said Meyer. “Our brand is all about creating memorable experiences. It is a freedom for people,” said Shawn Fechter, the vice president of Brand Experience for EagleRider Rentals and Tours. Fecther said the company offers experiences for everyone from beginners to lifelong riders.
Vanderbilt professor Kelly Goldsmith said an experience helps us share memories, with more than just those present in the moment.
