The weak pound is helping the consumers buy more stuff this Christmas. And it seems spending this Christmas is going to past the billion pound barrier because more people from abroad doingare their shopping here as they are getting things cheaper than if they shopped elsewhere

Oh yes it does! The fall in the pound hasn't yet hit to raise the price of imports but it is cheaper for foreign shoppers to shop here. That will include Internet sales too.

I'd misread the post as UK consumers.
