How Will You be Doing Your Holiday Shopping this Year?

We at dealnews only have eyes for deals ... and pretty and insightful infographics about deals and the online marketplace. Our friends at BlueKai have dug deep through 2010's online holiday shopping trends to predict The Future of Online Holiday Shopping.

Not surprisingly, consumers' online holiday shopping habits are growing, but in what ways? For one, shoppers are more likely to buy from multiple websites, rather than shopping one and done. dealnews of course supports that tactic, since getting the best deals generally means cherry-picking the best offers from a variety of vendors.

But we want to know more! When will you do your online shopping? Will you still shop in-store, or are you leaning toward doing all your holiday shopping online? Which merchants do you prefer, and what products are you planning on buying? (For example, the infographic says that digital picture frames were hot in electronics last year, but is anyone planning on buying them this year?) [BlueKai]
