Consumer Reports says that one-quarter of Americans say that hard liquor is actually the gift they would like least this holiday season. Comparatively, wine is an acceptably gift, with just six percent of Americans calling that the gift they’d want least.

Plenty of Americans fall into that category of late-shoppers, however, as Consumer Reports says about 30 percent of shoppers have yet to do any gift shopping through early December.
