Online Holiday Shopping Well Underway

Snippet:
Consumers are likely to start shopping online earlier this year, and they're likely to spend more than they did last year, according to research from Shop.org. The 2004 Shop.org/BizRate.com "Online Holiday Mood Study" reports 53 percent of online shoppers plan to start their online holiday shopping by early October. This early activity has the jump on merchants, only 14 percent of which will have launched some form of online holiday promotions in the same period. The majority of online retailers (53 percent) won't start holiday season promotions until after Halloween.
