[quote=ROGERINCA,36306]No, I think this is more unique to the Chinese culture. Most, in the west, do not purchase heavily for the ‘new year,’ be it the Chinese New Year, or the Western Calendar New Year. The big gift giving season is Christmas. However, with respect to clothing for children, parents in the US, normally will buy the new clothes for the children at the beginning of the new school year, at the end of the Summer vacation period. Many department stores and other chains in my country, have annual back-to-school sales and promotions during this period, near our Labor Day Holiday. [/quote]
