Internet communications company Tiscali UK has observed an increase in online adult gift buying in the run up to Valentine's Day.
The company claims that the Internet offers shoppers anonymity while buying adult gifts as they can arrange to get them delivered direct to a specified address - either their own or the gift recipient's home. A spokesperson for Tiscali has said that with the increase in online buying the company believes that less people are buying flowers or chocolate and instead are purchasing more risque gifts.
Tiscali has observed the rise in adult gift buying from the number of shoppers visiting and making purchases from its own Valentine's Day site at http://www.tiscali.co.uk/valentines.
