'Cyber Monday' Effect Lifts Slurp
The first Monday of December has been dubbed ‘Cyber Monday’ and is traditionally the strongest of the year for online retailers. The effect was felt strongly by us this year. Monday 7th December 2009 saw Slurp.co.uk receive the highest number of individual orders (some 17% more than the previous busiest day) in our four year history. Online sales have been extremely resilient across the economy through this recession, and wine has proved no exception. We are hugely grateful for all the Christmas orders we have received and you can be sure that Santa’s little wine elves will be extremely busy between now and the 25th wrapping and delivering so many liquid gifts!
