I do see the numbers going up, with a corresponding drop in regular retail statistics. The reduced spend is indicative of the current tight economic situation, but the 14% increase in transactions is at least a positive indication of online growth

Yes not surprising. Im sure it is mostly a direct result to the ongoing recession. I expect those numbers to rebound sharply over the next 2 or 3 years. Matt Helphrey's last blog post..The Money Spot is Above the Fold

I think this is very much a positive considering the economy. Jaan Kanellis's last blog post..Top Christmas Songs - Jaan Found Santa CD

As I said in a preview post, I am not surprised at all this year. Black Friday had much better deals and I couldn't find any on cyber monday. We'll see how the rest of the holidays go, but unless they start to have better deals, people aren't going to shop as much.

I think we can still look at this a positive. I mean with the economy the way that it is, to be up 1% isn’t bad. It’s growth. And obviously prices were down because transactions were up. This is good for parents as it seems they were able to get more presents for each kid.

Cyber Monday would be more appealing if there were hoards of other people swarming around you to battle your way through. And the occasional greeter to trample. Matt Coddington's last blog post..The Lucrative MMO Black Market - How You Can Make a Killing Playing World of Warcraft

Very interesting numbers indeed. Not only an we conclude that the consumer spend less, they went for diversity. Buying more products for less money. I am looking forward to the results of "Green Monday" then. Super Affiliate Traffic's last blog post..Super Affiliate Traffic by Erick Rockefeller and Howie Schwartz
