Christmas lights sales in the GTN Bestsellers Christmas Products Top 50 for the second week of December are 40% higher than at the same time last year. LED lighting has seen a surge in interest with 10 lines in the chart compared to seven in 2012.
Another sign that LED is taking over the lighting market comes in the form of Konstmide Light Arches, the only replacement bulb in the chart.
It’s also possible that the rise of LED popularity – both in terms of brightness and the number of lights you can get for your money – means that less baubles are needed on the Christmas tree.
The highest re-entry this week is the Premier Battery Operated Colour LED Lights at No 19 while the Premier Battery Operated LED Lights Multi-Action (Warm White) is the highest new entry at No 41. The highest climber is the Premier Cotton Snowman.
History & Heraldry Money Box baubles continue to sell well - holding on to No 1 spot for another week – but will there be a decline in future years as even more LED lights are bought.
