As a matter of fact,the estimate was backed up by payments company Visa Europe, which expected 960,000 transactions worth 36 million pounds would be made on Visa cards on Christmas Day. Visa transactions account for over 1 pound in every 4 pounds spent.
Online sales surged an average 22.5 percent year-on-year in October and December and although deliveries have been disrupted by recent adverse weather conditions vogue-mall.com was confident shoppers will not have been put off.
Christmas Day has become a busy online shopping day in recent years as people with an eye for value look to take advantage of the 24/7 nature of online retail.With many people not being able to get out to the high street sales due to the wide-ranging impact of the snow, online could see a real boost over the next few weeks.Otherwise,like furniture and electrical goods, could get a boost ahead of an increase in VAT sales tax in early January.

UGG boots productive process in our factory
As we know, Ugg Boots have certainly taken the world by storm and become a huge fashion craze. Everybody whose anyone is wearing them! Austrailians know that Ugg means "ugly" but these woolly sensations are still everywhere.Wondering exactly how Ugg Boots are made and just what makes them so comfortable? Ugg Boots are made from the highest quality materials, including sheepskin hide in our factory.
Step 1. Tanning/ Processing
The first step in tanning or processing of sheepskin is "Soaking". During this process, theskins are thoroughly rinsed in cold water to remove any excess salt or dirt from the wool and pelt. This soaking process is done overnight in a vat of fresh cold water.
The next step in the tanning process is called "Fleshing." This part of the process uses a fleshing machine which removes any excess fat and muscle tissue from the underside of the sheepskins.
After Fleshing comes "Scouring." This 30-45 minute segment of the process uses surfactants at high temperatures (around 38 degrees Celsius) and takes care of removing dirt and lanolin (grease) from the wool."Pickling" of the sheepskin then takes about 16 hours.
Next comes "Wool Dyeing" or "Fat liquoring."Fat liquors are part of leather manufacturing that help to lubricate the collagen fiber and allow them to move flexibly and freely once the skin is dried. This is what makes the leather feel soft.
Step 2. Finishing
After the lengthy tanning process is complete, the final finishing is done so the skins may be used to make Ugg Boots.
The skins must be conditioned to approximately 20% moisture content. Staking is the process by which the skins are softened and stretched, and a "nappy" surface is added to the pelt.
Final "Combing," "Ironing," and "Clipping" then takes place to remove any tangles, burrs, or grass seeds that may be remaining in the wool. The wool is straightened using an iron to remove the natural crimp. Lastly, a clipping machine creates auniform wool pile at a desired length (usually 12-15 mm).
Step 3. Manufacturing
A "clicking press" is used to cut individual panels from the skins. After being cut to the right size, the panels are then sewn together using special industrial sewing machines. The soles are then glued to the boot upper, and, finally,the Ugg Boots are ready for you to purchase.
Such a complex process this is the reason why ugg boots are so hot and warmly.
