44% of holiday shoppers last year made an online purchase, a number which is expected to increase this year not only on Cyber Monday but throughout the holiday season.
This is important to retailers because shoppers who shopped online AND in-store spent 25% more during the holiday season on gifts than shoppers who only shopped in-store.
Last year, Cyber Monday saw 106.9 million shoppers visit online retail sites, a 10.8% increase from 2009 (96.5 million shoppers) and a 43.3% increase from 2006 (60.7 million shoppers).
