American Buyers: Demographics of Shopping
is a groundbreaking new guide to buying patterns,
essential information in these difficult economic
times. While most businesses have a feel for
what is happening in their own establishment, American
Buyers lets them see the big picture beyond their walls or web
site. Its weekly and quarterly data show you how many households
buy certain products and services and how much buyers pay for them, all broken down by the
demographics that count - age, household income, household type, race and Hispanic origin, region
of residence, and education.
American Buyers gives you weekly and quarterly buying data for hundreds of items that are
organized into 10 chapters - 
apparel, entertainment, financial,
food and alcohol, gifts, health care,
housing, utilities, transportation,
and a final chapter encompassing
personal care, reading, education,
and tobacco.
The raw spending data in
American Buyers are not available
on any government web site.
They were obtained by special
request from the Bureau of Labor
Statistics and provide a unique
look at household shopping behavior
in the United States. The New
Strategist statisticians calculated
how much buyers spend during the
average quarter or week.
