Have we said ‘so long’ to the souvenir? Three in five people buy fewer souvenirs

New data from ABTA Travel Money, finds 58% of people are buying fewer souvenirs when going on a holiday abroad than they used to, with the change driven by tighter holiday spending budgets and environmental concerns. When asked why they buy fewer souvenirs when on holiday abroad, 32% said the reason was not having as much money to spend while on holiday, and the same number of people said they are conscious of the environment and not wanting to buy unnecessary items.
