I was just reading
this article over at Search Engine Watch which has some very interesting stats.
Cyber Monday 2011 was the heaviest U.S. online spending day in history, with the holiday season as a whole up 15 percent YoY to $15 billion this season-to-date.

If there was any doubt as to the increasing popularity of mobile devices, then this should dispel them:
PayPal Mobile reported a 552 percent YoY global increase in Cyber Monday global mobile payment volume. This represents 154 percent more than the average Monday and 17 percent more than Black Friday 2011.
Mobile traffic to e-commerce sites rose from 3.9 percent on Cyber Monday 2010 to 10.8 percent this year, according to IBM. Sales as a result of that heavier traffic increased from 2.3 to 6.6 percent YoY.
