That's fewer procrastinators than we thought and down from 13% at the same time last year!   26% of Canadians surveyed will file in the last week of tax season while a full 7% admit that they will file after the deadline.   68% Canadians are expecting a refund (cha-ching) and we wondered if the old stereotype of buying a big ticket item (like a new car stereo or a VCR) with the refund still held true.   Alas, the Canadians we surveyed are a responsible lot with 53% of respondents saying they would direct at least a portion of the refund to savings or to pay down debt. Maybe as an indicator of how Canadians continue to struggle with household expenditures and inflation, 25% said that they would spend part of their tax refund on Groceries compared to just 11% who said they would spend it on travel.   Similar to last year, it looks like we will not see a flood of new money coming into retail as refunds hit Canadians' bank accounts this year!   Check out last year's results here: [https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/blog/2023-tax-filing-insights](https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/blog/2023-tax-filing-insights) ![Green Modern Informational Data Infographic-6](https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Green%20Modern%20Informational%20Data%20Infographic-6.png?width=654&height=1635&name=Green%20Modern%20Informational%20Data%20Infographic-6.png)   [Insider](https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/blog/tag/insider) - [ << Previous Post **](https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/blog/virtual-store-tour-a1-cash-carry-burlington) - [**Next Post >> ](https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/blog/virtual-store-tour-calgary-co-op) ## related posts ### [Dollarama by the Numbers - 5 Facts Every CPG Supplier Should Know](https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/blog/dollarama-by-the-numbers) [Read More ⟶](https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/blog/dollarama-by-the-numbers) ### [Virtual Store Tour - Flying Tiger Copenhagen, Toronto](https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/blog/virtual-store-tour-flying-tiger-copenhagen-toronto) [Read More ⟶](https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/blog/virtual-store-tour-flying-tiger-copenhagen-toronto) ### [What Are the Best Alternatives to Field Reps for Store Checks in Canada?](https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/blog/what-are-the-best-alternatives-to-field-reps-for-store-checks-in-canada) [Read More ⟶](https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/blog/what-are-the-best-alternatives-to-field-reps-for-store-checks-in-canada) ## For App Users ## Business Solutions ## Get in Touch [Contact Us](https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/contact-us) © 2022 Field Agent Canada.
