The report said that the total Internet spend was £26.5bn, up 38% on the same period last year, which also translate to the fact that online sales have reached nearly 20% of total retail spending.

Cloths and footwear sales on the high street see a sharp drop in sale despite tempting offers from high street retailers. Internet sales of cloths and footwear on the other hand saw a rise, with over all Internet clothing sales rising by 32%, lingerie sales rose 37% and footwear was up 38%.

Year on year, online shopping has been rising faster than traditional high street shopping, Christmas 2007 saw online shopping spend rise to 15.2 billion, with was an increase of 50% over online sales of December 2006.
