Shoppers optimistic for Christmas

We are experiencing the strongest start to Christmas sales in years. Shoppers we talk with are optimistic. Gone are concerns of recent years about what may be around the corner. While what we hear on the shop floor is no scientific survey, the optimism is obvious and delivering good early Christmas sales.

Card sales are good but its gifts that are selling very well. So well, in fact, that we are ordering more stock.

    I agree Mark. We are in NSW and are delighted to report the same. Perhaps it also has to do with some changes we have made in store 😛

    Our newsXpress catalogue stock only arrived yesterday, is only half unpacked and is selling as we unpack it before it is even properly displayed. Yes it looks like a better Christmas is on the way at last.
