It is the same every year; one day we are enjoying our summer vacations, the next day getting the kids ready for the new school year and, suddenly, it is the holiday season. What does this mean for the FEC market? Simple, it's our time to stock our shelves with the hottest gifts on the market! Through our decades of operating FECs, there is one trend that has stayed constant; during the holiday seasons, our guests actually go "shopping" at our redemption centers. That is, of course, if your product is right. Starting NOW, take inventory of your redemption center, see if there are prizes displayed or in stock that are "worthy" of a holiday gift. From there, do some research, ask your staff, ask your guests, or browse online to see what are the must have gifts and start adding them to your lineup. For the latter, you have no excuses, the TRR team has done the browsing for you! Below are several links to explore the holiday shopping lists from the experts!
