British Lifestyles Outlook

The rising cost of living and successive interest rate rises mean the pressure on consumer finances has not let up in 2023, and more serious effects have now spilt over to include middle- and higher-income mortgage holders. In every month of 2023 so far, Brits are more likely to feel worse off, than better off, than the year before.

Mintel estimates that consumer spending will increase to £1.73 trillion in 2023.

British Lifestyle Trends and Opportunities

Quality products still engage consumers

Despite the continued squeeze on incomes, Brits are still intent on buying quality goods and services. Most say that they would opt to purchase products or experiences less frequently or wait for them to be on offer, rather than purchasing a cheaper version of lesser quality if they had to make cuts to spending across a range of categories.

British lifestyle trends: 47% of consumers agree that high-quality products or ingredients are worth paying more for.

The true value of holidays

Despite over a third of adults reporting that they are spending less on holidays now compared to last year, holidays are still the top priority in discretionary spending. Holidays offer an ideal escape from everyday life, and this mental break is even more appealing after the hardships of the past few years.

British lifestyle trends: 32% of consumers would continue to spend on holidays even if they had to make cutbacks to overall spending.

Expert Insights from a Lifestyles Analyst

This report, written by Francesca Smith, a leading consumer lifestyle analyst, delivers in-depth commentary and analysis to highlight British lifestyle trends and add expert context to the numbers.

Brits have been feeling the pinch of the cost-of-living crisis for a sustained period of time now, and for many, the ability to spend freely has almost completely disappeared. Essential categories, such as housing and groceries, are driving inflation and dominating consumer budgets. As a result, we expect the real value of consumer spending to fall in 2023.”
