The holiday season for 2010 witnessed the very first billion dollar day on record. Many retailers held big sales and special promotions during the holiday shopping season which prompted shoppers to spend money.

The Technology market was very strong in 2010 as many computers, electronic gadgets, software programs and accessories sold very well, especially during the holiday season.
