According to PayPal, shit loads. Apparently over 30 million dollars will be spent online by the end of this year in Australia. That’s barmy, that is.

Why do I know this? Because I’ve been working with PayPal for over a year now as a contributing editor at Lustable and this Christmas they’ve put my online shopping addiction to good use and have taken me on as their online shopping expert for Christmas 2011.

Here’s a few recordings of interviews that I’ve done over the past few weeks. I know a few of you were disappointed that you missed the live airings and the PayPal gals were kind enough to track down recordings for me.

111205 2UE BOSD – interview with Carly by Smaggle

Honestly, I don’t expect anyone except my mother to listen to them all, so don’t feel pressured. I start almost every sentence with ‘absolutely’ and speak at the speed of a runaway freight train, so that’s the basic gist if you don’t have the inclination to listen. Also don’t panic at the second one, I only speak for the first little bit, it’s not 38 minutes of moi.

I’ll keep you guys updated with any more interviews.

You can also find my interview updates on Twitter and Facebook.

So… how much of your Christmas shopping was done, or will be done, online this year?

Me? 100%. True story.
