  圣诞节:老爸收到的礼物最便宜

  Despite dads often being the main bread-winner in a household, just 1 per cent of Britons plan to spend the most money on their fathers this Christmas, according to a survey into family buying habits by supermarket Sainsbury’s.

  虽然父亲多是家里的主要经济来源,需要赚钱养活一大家人,但英国第三大连锁超市Sainsbury最近进行的关于家庭购买习惯的调查显示,这个圣诞节,只有1%的英国人计划把最多的钱花在为父亲买礼物上。

  Sisters do not fare much better, with only 2 per cent of people saying they will spend the most on their sister this Christmas.

  姐妹的情形也不容乐观,只有2%的人表示会花费最多的钱为姐妹买圣诞礼物。

  A poll of 1,500 customers by the supermarket found that daughters are more popular than sons. Around 12 per cent of people said that they will spend the most on their daughter, while 10 per cent said they will spend the most on their son.

  超市进行这项1500位顾客的民意调查显示,女儿比儿子更受欢迎。12%的人表示为女儿花的最多,而要为儿子花费最多的只有10%。

  Partners and spouses are the most spoiled. Almost one in four people said they will spend the most on their partner this Christmas.

  伴侣和配偶则是最受宠爱的。几乎有25%的人表示会为自己的另一半买最贵的圣诞礼物。

  Other research suggests that consumers will be looking to save money this year by making their own presents.

  其他的研究表明由于经济不景气,很多的顾客为了省钱今年打算自己制作圣诞礼物。

  With just 15 shopping days to go until Christmas, B&Q, the DIY chain, found that a quarter of all shoppers are making their own cards, presents or decorations this year.

  百安居DIY连锁店的调查显示,虽然离圣诞节只剩15天的购物时间,25%的购物者今年都在自己手工制作卡片、礼物和房间装饰。

  Cash will also feature strongly this Christmas. More than half of Britons are planning to give cash as a present this year, the Payments Council has found. It expects a total of £2.4 billion in cash will be given over the festive period.

  现金也成为这个圣诞比较明显的特征。英国支付委员会调查发现,超过一半的英国人今年计划直接送现金当礼物。据估计在今年的节日期间,一共有24亿英镑的现金会被当作礼物送出。

  In a poll of over 2,000 people it found that over-55s are the most generous. Almost two-thirds of this age group said that they will give financial gifts worth £116 on average, more than double the amount that 18-to-34 year olds plan to give.

  支付委员会进行的一项超过2000人参与的民意调查显示,就现金礼物而言,55岁以上的长辈最大方。这个年龄层中有2/3的人表示计划会给出平均116英镑的圣诞礼物,这比18-34岁年龄层人们的计划支出要多一倍不止。

  小编有话说:你有送过父亲礼物么?还是会习惯性忽略,觉得老爸不爱礼物?
