Consumers look for best retailer deals as holiday shopping begins
Consumers are showing off their holiday spirit online as they begin to look for the best deals ahead of Christmas. With just under 50 days to go, the Halloween items packed away and the holiday decorations unpacked, Americans are ready to spend on Christmas gifts.
According to the National Retail Federation, Americans are planning to spend around $890 per person to buy holiday gifts, food, decor, and more in 2025. However, this number is actually less than in 2024, when U.S. shoppers spent a record $902 per person.
Experts say the largest piece of the holiday spending pie is gifts, with more than $600 expected to go toward presents this year.
Amid challenges such as the government shutdown, inflation, and tariffs weighing heavily on many consumers, shoppers are desperate for deals. “Consumers are embracing discount stores as a part of their shopping list this year. They are prioritizing big box retailers and dollar stores while having less interest in outlet stores and e-commerce sites,” said Mary Hines Droesch, Head of Consumer and Small Business Products and Analytics at Bank of America.
Some retailers are now offering early Black Friday savings on everything from holiday decor to select toys. Even places like Wayfair are boasting discounts of up to 70% off cookware, Christmas trees, furniture, and more.
Experts say it is never too early to start saving for the holidays.

Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont to seek third term in 2026
EAST HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont filed the necessary paperwork on Friday to seek a third term in 2026. The Democrat, who has been asked by reporters for months about whether he will run again, said a formal announcement will likely be made next week.
“Yeah, Susan and I are ready to go,” he said during an event about affordable housing, referring to Lt. Gov. Susan Bysiewicz. “I didn’t want you to have to ask me any longer.”
Lamont’s candidate registration form was filed Friday afternoon with the State Elections Enforcement Commission.
Lamont, 71, a wealthy former cable entrepreneur, has developed a reputation as a fiscal moderate. He has signed a major tax cut and worked to pay down unfunded state pension liabilities. Additionally, he has supported access to abortion through safe harbor laws and advocated for greater protections for immigrants.
Notably, Lamont was one of two Democratic governors who attended President Donald Trump’s inauguration. He has carefully chosen which issues to criticize the Republican on, a tactic that has drawn complaints from more liberal Democrats in Connecticut. Some critics have also taken issue with his budgeting approach, deeming it too conservative.
No Connecticut governor has served three consecutive terms in modern times. Former Republican Gov. John G. Rowland was elected to a third consecutive term in November 2002 but resigned in 2004 amid a corruption scandal.

Located on Northeast 14th Terrace, directly across from Lotus House’s 500-bed shelter, The Children’s Village is home to a preschool, after-school care programs, intervention services, and healthcare support. This vibrant center brings together multiple local youth organizations under one roof, united in their mission to support kids and families in the community.
“During the pandemic, we realized that our kids needed more than what we were offering them, so we came up with the idea of building a playground. Shortly after, we realized that they needed more than that. So we invited all of the providers who offer amazing services in Overtown to join us in one roof,” said Lotus House Executive Director Isabella Dell’Oca.
Among the programs offered at The Children’s Village is Girl Power Rocks, which focuses on empowering young girls through educational support, confidence-building, and safety awareness.
“We provide them with different skills to avoid dangers. For instance, trafficking is a significant concern here in Miami, so we address these issues with the girls and provide them with tools like conflict resolution and guidance on how to be better citizens in the community,” explained Rashada Campbell, Director of Operations for Girl Power Rocks.
The Children’s Village is open and available to any youth residing in Overtown, aiming to create a safe and supportive environment for the neighborhood’s children and families.

After dropping her newest album, she’s hitting the road, bringing a fresh, carefree vibe to her music and performances. Recently, Deco got a taste of Demi’s delicious life, and it’s clear she’s keeping it cute, catchy, and totally fun.
Demi Lovato is done taking things so seriously. In her latest album, *It’s Not That Deep*, she’s leaving all the drama at home. “It’s a simple, party fun song and it’s sexy and it’s like, that’s what it is,” Demi shares. “I think so much of my past was, like, I want to try and write, you know, deeply emotional songs about my past. And with this album, I was like, ‘I’m in a place where I’m having fun. I want my lyrics to reflect that too.’”
For Demi, combining heartbreak with a breakthrough remains important, as shown in songs like “Here All Night.” She explains, “It’s about someone that’s really struggling through a breakup but they’re going to dance on the dance floor until her heart gets out.”
A big part of her personal journey has been tying the knot with the love of her life. Demi says, “I found the love of my life and we’re married, and he helps me feel confident. He helps me, you know, live in the moment. And I think it’s a combination of everything coming together, right?”
Maturity plays a significant role in her new outlook. “I think there’s something about your 30s too, where you just take a second and you are able to let go of some of the pressures that you once put on yourself maybe in your 20s,” Demi reflects. “Now I’m 33 and I’m not taking myself so seriously because I realize there’s room for everyone.”
Going on tour with this album feels like the most festive time of the year for Demi. “It’s like waking up on Christmas morning when you’re 6 years old,” she says excitedly. “I was like, ‘Wow, I’m really sure of this album and I’m really sure of this era,’ but so many people are too, and that’s really rewarding. I can’t wait to bring the show on the road.”
