Shopping online via phones and laptops, instead of on the high street, has become more popular every year. But the COVID-19 pandemic caused a swell in the number of online shoppers in 2020, with millions of Brits stuck at home due to lockdown.
Our report, A cut-price culture: Discount codes and shopping behaviour, suggests this trend is set to stick – Finder surveyed 2,000 Brits in May 2020 and found that 1 in 10 (11%) say they will continue to do most of their shopping online in the future. That’s 6 million Brits set to largely ditch the high street.
Is there a future for the high street?
The COVID-19 pandemic has shifted many shoppers online, and some stores have sadly shut their doors for good due to financial difficulties. While some shoppers are likely to return to the high street post-pandemic, for those 6 million Brits, there will be no going back.
Sofie Willmott, lead data analyst at analytics agency GlobalData says: “It’s no secret that many stores were struggling before the pandemic, but coronavirus may well be the “last nail in the coffin for the high street.”
When is the best time to shop online?
You can bag bargains any time of the year by shopping online, especially if you use a discount code or deal. However, visiting the above shopping sites on the below dates should be part of any shopaholic’s calendar:
Which online clothing stores stock high-quality clothes?
For high-quality fashion, there are some online stores to order from… and some to avoid. ASOS, Ted Baker, Superdry, Fat Face and M&S are all fairly safe as far as quality goes, although the quality varies depending on the shop.
Which fashion sites are great for cheap clothes?
If you’re after cheap fashion online then boohoo, PrettyLittleThing and Missguided are all great sites to find on-trend pieces at affordable prices. Hunt a little further and you’ll find that ASOS’s own brand is on the cheaper end of the clothing spectrum. Of course, if you find a discount code for your favourite fashion boutique, you can always shave a little off the end price. Discounts are only a search away.
Which online clothing stores are British?
Quite a few, actually! Joules, Ted Baker, John Lewis and Boden, just to name a few.
