Survey says people shop online sans clothing and/or intoxicated
According to a survey conducted by Conchango, six percent of people in the UK say that someone they know has shopped online while undressed. Apparently, a growing number also do their online shopping drunk. From The Register:
The research shows a rise in a new spending syndrome dubbed BLOTO, or Buying Loads Of Tat Online, with seven per cent of Britons now claiming they know someone who has gone shopping on the web for items they don't need whilst intoxicated.Link (via Techdirt)
"These findings throw a new light on internet spending and pose a number of questions for retailers as they develop new online products and services," said Paul Dawson, head of customer experience at Conchango.
