Easter is a time for many around the world to celebrate (and enjoy a few days off work if you can!).
We surveyed a nationally representative sample of 1,299 Pureprofile panellists from Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the USA to find out about their egg-citing Easter plans and spending habits.
Here’s what we discovered:
Due to the increased cost of living, 52% of Kiwis will spend less than usual this Easter, followed by Aussies (46%), Brits (36%) and Americans (33%)
Where to take the first bite? More than ¾ of all chocolate Easter bunny eaters like to take their first bite from the ears, with less than 8% starting at the tail
69% of Kiwis will spend up to $50 on eggs, as will 60% of Aussies and 35% of Americans, while 65% of Brits will spend up to £25
Some people won’t be buying any eggs at all… with 23% of Americans, 17% of Brits, 14% of Aussies and 6% of Kiwis skipping the chocolate aisle
Aussies say spending time with loved ones is their favourite thing to do at Easter time (37%), compared to Brits and Kiwis (32%) and Americans (24%)
Less than 10% of all respondents say travel is their most preferred activity over the Easter period
