I typically say Merry Christmas. The only exception is when talking to someone who I know celebrates another holiday, or doesn't celebrate at all.

I usually say happy holidays to someone I don't know very well or celebrates another holiday but if I know the person celebrates Christmas then I say merry Christmas.

I say Merry Christmas to people I know personally, but Happy Holidays to customers and other strangers, just because you never know what someone celebrates, if anything.

Merry Christmas to family and friends, Happy Holidays to clients and strangers.

Happy Holidays unless it's to someone I know or if the person wishes me Merry Christmas first. Also tell everyone Happy New years during the few days before and after.

Merry Christmas if I don't think it'll offend the person (or if I know them), otherwise Happy Holidays is a great faith-free greeting.

I say Happy Holidays, since Christmas isn't my holiday, and I try to be inclusive to everyone.

I always say Happy Holidays, since most faiths have a holiday at this time of year. Merry Christmas is reserved for those we KNOW celebrate only Christmas. If we don't know the people, why use a completely exclusionary "greeting" like "Merry Christmas" if that may not be at all what THEY celebrate????

...indeed. One that WELCOMES all and offend no one (maybe an atheist, but even for them, the SEASON can be HAPPY!

Interesting. If I KNOW folks are Christian, we say Merry Christmas. If I know they are Jewish (not "or something"), then we say HAPPY Hanukkah! Happy Holidays is great if we don't have a clue what the celebrate, if anything.

Warms the cockles of my heart seeing SO many people here that are SENSITIVE to the fact that MAYBE NOT EVERYONE CELEBRATES CHRISTMAS and thus a HAPPY HOLIDAYS is a very ALL inclusive greeting and there is NOTHING demeaning about it to Christians or anyone else!

Happy Holidays is the perfect way to wish everybody cheer without risking offense.

Depends on who I am talking to. To a Christian I say Merry Christmas, to a Jew I say Happy Hanukkah, to a Pagan I say Happy Yule or Blessed Solstice, to an agnostic I say Happy Holidays. To people I don't know well enough to know their persuasion I might just say Season's Greetings or something generic. Have a great day works as well!
