Many people have compared the “magnitude” in sales between the three biggest holidays of the year Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Halloween. These are major holidays but when compared, Christmas comes out on top as expected, Thanksgiving is recorded as the second most favorite holiday, and obviously, the third on the list is Halloween.

The comparison shows how magnitude the e-commerce sale is on Thanksgiving and how much you must run more campaigns to leverage this second biggest holiday of the year. 

Thanksgiving is traditionally observed on the 4th Thursday of November, which is regarded as a national holiday and is celebrated in all states. People have a long vacation to reunite with their families and want to celebrate this day safely in the midst of the pandemic so the demand for online shopping increases significantly this year.

Before jumping right into the main course of what to sell and which niche to use, let’s dive into the huge market potential for Thanksgiving!

The market potential for Thanksgiving eCommerce in recent years:

Despite the COVID-19 Delta variant’s impact on the U.S. economy, based on a forecast from Deloitte, U.S. consumers will spend up to 9% more this year compared to 2020, when consumers spent a total of $1.2 trillion during the key shopping period between November and the end of the year. Retailers can look forward to an improvement over holiday spending over the last two years, when sales grew less than 6% in 2020 and just over 4% in 2019.

“This year’s range is considerably higher. What we might find with the Delta variant is that folks will perhaps spend more online versus in brick-and-mortar stores” – Deloitte Vice Chairman Rod Sides. That means the purchasing power of U.S consumers will not decrease and they will change to shop online more to be safe in the current situation. Like last year, consumers who are still wary of the virus,  online holiday spending is predicted to increase 11% to 15% this year.
