Poll: Georgians Cautious with Spending This Holiday Season

After Dismal Holiday Season, Retailers Offer Deep Discounts

ATLANTA -- Georgians are planning to spend money carefully this holiday season, and overwhelmingly, they don't want to rack up enormous credit card bills in the process, according to a new poll from Georgia Credit Union Affiliates (GCUA).

The Georgia Credit Unions' Holiday Spending Poll of 1,000 credit union members from across the state revealed that 52 percent plan to spend less than they did last year, while 45 percent plan to spend the same as last year and only 3 percent plan to spend more. Concurrently, 76 percent of Georgians polled plan to pay for all or most of their purchases with cash, and only 12 percent are planning to use a credit card to make their purchases, the poll showed.

Of those polled, 59 percent plan to spend less than $500 on gifts this holiday season, while 31 percent plan to spend between $500 and $1,000. Meanwhile, a small pocket - 10 percent - plan to spend more than $1,000.

National Day of Outrage Rally November 23rd to call attention to the nationwide epidemic of violence in urban communities.

Seeing is Believing -- National Action Network, along with families and victims of gun violence and concerned Atlanta citizens are taking a stand against youth violence.

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and Viacom Host Get Schooled in LA

Rev. Al Sharpton and National Action Network (NAN), along with community members across the country will lead a National Day of Outrage on November 23 at 2:00 p.m. (EST) to call attention to the nationwide epidemic of violence in urban communities. Thousands of concerned citizens will come together from Chicago to New York and from Atlanta to Los Angeles to stand together with a unified message that vicious senseless killings in our communities will no longer be tolerated. The incidents are impacting young students, college students and grandmothers such as the 92-year-old woman in the Bronx, New York who was struck by a stray bullet while watching TV inside her Williamsbridge home on Oct. 20th.

In Atlanta, Georgia, where Rev. Sharpton will participate in the Day of Outrage, a 19-year-old Spelman College sophomore was recently hit by a stray bullet while walking on the Clark Atlanta University campus. According to Rev. Al Sharpton: "We must be just as vigilant against the shootings that are random, gang related, or intentional, because we are in a crisis state and too many lives are being forsaken. We've got to come together across all lines to fight this battle."

Join Rev. Al Sharpton live along with guest speakers: State Representative (GA) Alisha Thomas Morgan, Edward Dubose (NAACP), Rev. Samuel Mostella and Rev. Dwight Graves (SCLC), Joe Beasley (Rainbow Push), Min. Charles Muhammad (Nation of Islam), Derrick Boazman (Radio Personality/Community Activist), Able Mable Thomas (Community Activist), Dr. Kenneth Samuel (Pastor, Victory Church), Rich Pellegrino (Cobb Immigration Alliance), Michael Roger (Gang victim), Jean Hudley (Boys2Men Youth), Shanelle Campbell (Silence the Violence Youth), Mary-Pat Hector (Youth in Action President).
