Record-breaking online shopping expected this Christmas

Christmasgiftstree Now that it’s the 1st of November it’s finally acceptable to start talking about Christmas (and yes the eagle-eyed among you will notice that I actually wrote about it last week, but that was just to see if you’re all awake).

According to Forrester Research, this Christmas will see us setting new records for online shopping, with the UK leading the European charge. Forrester estimates the UK’s 27 million online shoppers will spend more than £490 (700 euro) each in the lead up to the holidays, with the top product areas being leisure travel and typical gift items like DVDs and consumer electronics.

What are your planned purchases this holiday season (and will they be gifts for others, or gifts for you)?
