Jeremy Wilson was also shopping at the mall but said he didn’t mind going into debt for something like Christmas presents for his family.
“Christmas is only once a year, so if I need to charge some stuff, then so be it,” he said. “As long as I keep working, then I will be able to pay it off.”
Wilson isn’t alone. A recent Swagbucks survey reported that 63 percent of Americans will go into debt from holiday shopping, with 25 percent of them accruing more than $500 in debt.
