Does drinking lead to spending?
For some 58.4 million Americans, a hangover is no longer the only thing they may wake up to after a night of drinking. Perhaps you’ll find some new shoes in your closet or even a new car in your driveway. This may leave you to wonder – has my bank account and alcohol teamed up against me?
According to Finder’s latest Drunk Shopping survey conducted in February 2020, nearly a quarter (22.9%) of Americans admit to shopping under the influence. Although the percentage of Americans that admitted to buying under the influence decreased from 26.4% to 22.9% over the past year, the amount consumers are spending increased by 13.9%. The average drunk shopper is spending an average of $768.58 on drunk purchases this year, compared to $674.96 in 2019.
Collectively, Americans spent $44.9 billion on drunk purchases in the past 12 months, down from last year’s $45.3 billion.
