Groceries and sporting goods got a big boost in the Covid e-commerce boom Annie Palmer Americans spent $791.7 billion on e-commerce sites in 2020, up 32.4% from 2019, according to data published Friday by the U.S. Census Bureau. That behavior translated to e-commerce claiming a bigger share of total retail sales in 2020 than any year before. E-commerce ended the year accounting for 14% of all U.S. sales, up from 11% in 2019. The data provides the latest picture into how the coronavirus pandemic accelerated adoption of e-commerce. As physical stores closed and people opted to stay indoors, consumers filled up their virtual shopping carts with products they might not have otherwise ordered online. Groceries and sporting goods were among the categories that saw the biggest boosts in spending, according to the U.S. Census data. Other hot online purchases included gear for home improvements, such as furniture, gardening equipment, building supplies. Personal and health care items also saw an uptick. o~~~ O
