Similar Stories to Maybe Warehouse Clubs Have Influenced Our Shopping Even More Than E-commerce on Bing News

(Mike Mozart)Americans’ shopping habits have changed somewhat over the last few decades, but that’s not necessarily because of e-commerce.

Maybe this will change after consumers have had a few more years of buying everything they possibly can from Amazon Prime, but here’s something to consider: online shopping represented only about 4% of consumer spending in 2012, while about 8% of all spending was in warehouse clubs. While nationwide data only goes up to 2013, Americans spent $348 billion on e-commerce and catalog purchases in 2013, and $420 billion at warehouse clubs during the same year.
