Prime members will have their own special two-day holiday sale.

Macy’s Inc. and Toys “R” Us are officially launching their partnership in time for the holidays.

Macy’s is taking a cautious stance when it comes to staffing up for the holidays.

Scrooge may pay a visit to online retailers this holiday season – in the form of rising retailer costs and increased consumer prices.

This year could bring one of the earliest kick-offs to peak trading season ever, with customers in a determined mindset to buy.

Consumers’ willingness to spend overcame inflation in August as more jobs, higher wages and falling gas prices helped ease some of the pressure of high prices.
