Saturday shopping set a single-day sales record, analyst says https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/saturday-shopping-set-a-single-day-sales-record-analyst-says/ar-BBYhl0P?li=BBnbfcLHoliday shopping set records over the weekend, with Super Saturday sales reaching $34.4 billion, the biggest single day in U.S. retail history, according to Customer Growth Partners.
“Paced by the ‘Big Four’ mega-retailers -- Walmart, Amazon, Costco and Target -- Super Saturday was boosted by the best traffic our team has seen in years,†said Craig Johnson, president of the retail research
Job growth and fatter wallets, along with stronger household finances, have put consumers in a buying mood this season, Johnson said. And more of them are shopping online. As retailers offer improved web platforms, online spending so far this season has accounted for 58% of sales growth from a year earlier, he said.
