Poll: Are you doing your Christmas shopping online?

Online purchases are up largely thanks to the weak sterling.

Online purchases were up largely thanks to the weak sterling, which recently hit a three-year low and continues to hurt Irish retailers.

So today we’re asking, are you doing your Christmas shopping online?
