Will Green Monday Beat Record-Breaking Cyber Monday As Biggest Online Shopping Day Of Season?
Dec 12th
A new report from ComScore show that the first 39 days of the November-December 2011 holiday season mark $24.6 billion in online spending, signifying a 15% increase from the same time period last year. The week ending December 9 hit $5.9 billion in spending, up 15% from the same week last year. Three days showed spending of more than $1 billion. On Cyber Monday, Americans spent $1.25 billion online. Yet, the biggest shopping week of the season might be starting today, December 12, on Green Monday.

EBay invented “Green Monday” in 2007. It describes the Monday of the second week in December, which consistently ranks among the top spending days of the holiday shopping season.

This past Cyber Monday spending hit $1.25 billion, making it the heaviest U.S. online spending day in history. Does Green Monday even stand a chance to become the biggest online shopping holiday of the year? Not if Free Shipping Day (December 16) can help it. What more incentive do online shoppers really need?
Will you be spending big today? Or did you finish your shopping on Cyber Monday? Tell us what you think in the comments.

Kids Want iPads This Holiday Season
Nov 18th
A new report from Nielsen reveals that kids ages 6-12 want Apple devices, especially iPads. Forty-four percent of kids ages 6-12 expressed interest in the iPad, up from 31 percent in 2010. Only 30% of kids want an iPod Touch, and 27% want an iPhone. For kids ages 13-and-up, iPads still top the wish list, with 24% this year, up from 18% last year. The second most desired item is a computer – 18% of kids ages 13-and-up want it more than an iPad. Yet last year, computers were the top most desired item for this age group after televisions, smartphones and then iPads. When it comes to holiday shopping, 2011 is most certainly the year of the iPad.


In September, information from the International Data Corporation (IDC) said that tablets and smartphones would truly begin killing the PC in 2015. The top three items for kids ages 6-12 are iPad, iPod Touch and iPhone. In 2015, that age group will be 10-14.
