Cyber Monday again strongest online Sales Day

Dec 3 2007, 10:19am CST | by Luigi Lugmayr

comScore, Inc. published some interesting online sales numbers for Cyber Monday and the holiday shopping season so far.

More than $13.4 billion has been spent online during the season-to-date (11/01-11/30), which is an 18% gain compared to the corresponding days last year.
Cyber Monday (11/26) is so far the highest online sales day with $733 million in sales. Actually the whole week was doing well with an overall sales volume of $4 billion.
Now it makes sense that Walmart extended their Cyber Monday sales to the whole week. I guess they got a nice piece of the online sales action in that week.

Also interesting is that for the first 30 days of the holiday season, 45.5% of all online retail spending came from work locations, edging out the 44.1 percent of spending from home.
