Online shopping sales are soaring in UK, with lockdown forcing people to swap shopping trips for home deliveries.

According to the latest figures from the Office for National Statistics, the proportion spent online soared to 35.2% in January 2021, the highest on record. This is a significant jump from 29.6% in December 2020, and 19.5% reported in January 2020, showing a growing interest in shopping online. But will these trends continue once shops reopen?

We’d like to speak to people about how their shopping habits have changed due to coronavirus, and whether they will continue shopping online after the pandemic.

Share your experiences

Are you a convert to deliveries? What do you buy online and what will you return to the shops for? Have the things you order changed since the start of the pandemic?
