The latest post on ‘Mashable’ is titled “Cyber Monday Sales Up 30% From 2011”.

Seth Fiegerman says, “Who says Cyber Monday is dead?

Cyber Monday sales increased by 30.3% from the year before, according to the latest data from IBM Smarter Commerce, which tracks online sales for 500 retailers in the U.S.

Total sales increased even though the amount spent per order decreased, a fact that IBM attributes to consumers placing a greater number of orders this year. IBM found that shoppers spent an average of $185.12 per order this year, compared to $198.26 in 2011. Consumers purchased about one more item per order this year than last year, bringing the total to 8.34 items”.
