Users spending more on different days

Consumers logged online Monday and spent $10.7 billion, marking a 1.4 percent decrease from year-ago levels, according to data released by Adobe Analytics.

This year's tally marks the first time that Adobe has tracked a slowdown in spending on major shopping days.

Despite the slowdown, Adobe expects the entire holiday season will see record-breaking e-commerce activity, as shoppers spread out their dollars over more days.

So far, from 1 November through Cyber Monday, consumers in the United States have spent $109.8 billion online, which is up 11.9 percent year over year, Adobe said.

And on 22 of those days, consumers purchased more than $3 billion worth of goods, another new milestone, it said. Adobe anticipates digital sales from 1 November to 31 December will hit $207 billion, which would represent record gains of 10 percent.

Last Cyber Monday, retailers rang up $10.8 billion in sales on the web, as more people stayed home and avoided shopping in retailers' stores due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
