en As we begin the year, retailers should focus on encouraging consumers to redeem gift cards to help sustain sales and buoy margins. Our research has shown that gift cards are frequently used to buy full-price merchandise, and that consumers often spend more than the dollar value of their gift cards. Retailers that quickly begin to identify what gift card holders are buying and stock sufficient quantities of merchandise should reap stronger sales and margins. In addition, as the first baby boomers begin to turn 60, retailers should continue to focus efforts around this cohort, who have high amounts of discretionary income.

en Roots gift cards provide our customers with a fun, easy-to-select gift for all occasions and for all types of friends and family, and since their arrival last fall they've been flying off the shelves. Not only can the gift card be used in Roots stores, but customers can register their gift card online at roots.com to protect the balance in the event the gift card is lost or stolen, as well as check the remaining balance at any time.

en In the retail sales, it may be from the gift cards people received during the holiday time frame but didn't use until January.
