No doubt Paul, it is Universal truth that women tend to spent more on shopping than men do. I guess online shopping was the only place were they were lacking behind and this Christmas season will prove that no one can compete with women when it comes to shopping.

Yep, its encouraging, also research shows more women than men are concerned about security & privacy issues means they are more safe online.

Why should men stay behind always? We need to improve our stats as well.

Well Iâ€™m not surprised as this was bound to happen sometime and everyone knows women and shopping are inseparable so itâ€™s not something unexpected.
Hey Dave men are not always behind but in things such as shopping Iâ€™d prefer to stay behind.

What do you do when you need to purchase something and you don't think you are good in purchasing that ?

Most of the Men's expect their Mother / Wife / GF / Sisters to purchase that thing for them as they don't find themselves comfortable with shopping.

So even if we say that womens put more money in shopping then most of the times we use that skill of womens to purchase things for our benefit.
