Episode Details

Australians splashed $21.9 billion online in the last three months — a 14% surge driven by end-of-year sales and savvy deal-hunting, with average basket sizes shrinking to just $90. Nearly six in ten shoppers now wait for discounts, turning sales into strategic budgeting tools. Online marketplaces captured $5.1 billion, while the “Lipstick Effect” is alive: people trade big buys for affordable treats. Millennials still lead spending ($7.8 billion), but the biggest year-on-year jump came from Gen X (born before 1946), up 18%. Consumers are smarter, more patient, and expect seamless experiences — retailers better deliver or risk losing out.
