Holiday Shopping Online Kicks Off Early

I was surprised to see the stats of my online shopping mall this morning. There was a sudden surge of visitors shopping online. Usually at this time of the year, we encounter a normal flow of visitors to shop for the halloween items. The holiday and christmas shopping starts around mid November for the past years.

It seems people do not like to wait for last minute shopping or they are making searches for better deals and offers early. The most searchable term is "Home Shopping", that indicates most people are going for online shopping at home.

Another indication for early christmas shopping is the serach for "Toys".

Can we justify that this year is going to be a record breaking for online shopping by consumers?
Gas prices are high, and traveling takes time and to save both time and money, online shopping is the best option.
