TweetClothing tops items bought on Black Friday
According to a story on CNBC on Sunday citing figures from the National Retail Federation, a reported 195 million people shopped in stores and online from Black Friday through the weekend. That is up more than 13 percent from last year.
But, since the shoppers were taking advantage of the bigger sales, they actually ended up spending less.
Locally, shoppers talked about seeking bigger deals for the gifts they buy this season, especially in this economy.
The NRF reported that most people shopped at department stores, with nearly half (49 percent) of holiday shoppers visiting at least one — that is almost 13 percent increase from last year.
According to the group’s data, discount retailers took an uncharacteristic back seat, drawing 43 percent of holiday shoppers. Another nearly 8 percent headed to outlet stores.
Electronics stores got 29 percent of the business; clothing stores, 23 percent; and grocery stores, 20 percent.
Most shoppers hit the stores Friday (62 percent) and Saturday (55 percent).
But, what did they buy? According to the NRF, shoppers bought clothing and clothing accessories (50 percent); books, CDs, DVDs, videos and video games (40 percent); electronics or computer-related items (37 percent); toys (32 percent); food and candy (23 percent); personal care and beauty items (22 percent); and so on.
What about you? Was clothing tops on your list? Or did that big-screen TV call your name?
