A simple thank you works if you don't want to respond with a happy holidays. Most clerks have no choice in the matter. Company policy dictates they wish customers a happy holiday. They are not supposed to say merry Xmas, but some do out of their own beliefs or to stick their tongues out at corporate.

Ignore the words and enjoy the sentiment.
