Even during these tough times it appears online sales won’t be stopped. Online retailers are still seeing brisk business even though the High Street is taking a hit as consumers stay away. Some analysts are struggling to find the reason why, but it seems obvious to me…

As our lives become more complicated we are constantly looking for ways to make the best of our time and any activity that wastes precious minutes and hours needs to be cut out of our timetables. For many, a good dose of ‘retail therapy’ is just the ticket, but it comes with the dangers of impulse buying and wasting yet more cash built in.

No, relaxing these days means a walk through the woods or down the canal towpath – shopping is sooo 1998.

It’s an unscientific survey, but recently I asked a bunch of people how they relax and nobody said that hiking up and down the High Street turned them on. Even out of town shopping centres are losing their flair and people are looking for something different. In these times of Internet, ‘different’ means online stores.

Even the grocery shopping is now being done online. Tesco, Waitrose and ASDA have got this area of the market pretty much wrapped up and they’re about to enter into a price war as Waitrose are dropping their delivery prices.

The benefits are clear. No impulse buying, easy to use shopping lists and I can go a walk rather than lug my bags the car on a hot sunny day. It’s the ultimate in outsourcing, really. I shop, someone else drops.
