For me, it depends on the time and place. If it's mid-December and a clerk says "Happy Holidays," I usually say that back. (Though I confess I'm always tempted to say "And a blessed Advent to you too!" given Christmas doesn't actually start till 12/25.) If it's close to Christmas, I usually say "Merry Christmas."
