“The beginning of the online holiday shopping season has gotten off to an extremely positive start, outperforming our earlier expectations,” ComScore Chairman Gian Fulgoni said in a statement. “While this early spending surge reflects, in part, heavy promotional activity on the part of retailers occurring earlier this season, it is nevertheless a very encouraging sign.”
