London, (ContentDesk) December 13, 2004 -- This Christmas, as the race to gain share of the Christmas pound among retailers has resulted in a large number of pre-Christmas sales and promotions, research from consumer review and comparison shopping website, Ciao (www.ciao.co.uk) shows that a third of men claim they plan to leave their Christmas shopping until the week before Christmas.Ciao's survey of 1,000 UK adults shows that 33% of men are planning to do their Christmas shopping the week before Christmas, compared to only 8% of women.

Women are also more likely than men to say they intend to buy, and to research their Christmas shopping online. % UK internet users???????????
