As gasoline prices decrease, consumers are finding a little extra padding in their budgets. Nearly every retail category has seen strong sales growth in the past few months, indicating that retailers will see positive gains as consumers continue to spend this holiday season.

Consumers are getting used to high gas prices. Gas prices were high during the (Christmas) holiday season, and people were still out there spending money.

A combination of many factors, including energy prices, the job market, disposable income and consumer confidence, will ultimately affect retailers' sales this holiday season.

Energy prices seem to be in the sweet spot.
