    A massive increase compared to the previous three. The biggest on record.

    Its a miracle!

    I can't put my finger on why but there must be a reason why sales in retail were higher when shops were allowed to open than they were in the months previous when trump junior forced retail to close.

    It was the back to school promotion.

    Serious question - how did it compare with the same period last year?

    They're up past pre-pandemic levels.

    More disposable income from people being put off going for holidays, to the pub etc has helped and it's probably online sales and people spending a bit more than normal on some early Christmas shopping.

    Proof that shops sell more when open than closed.
    Marvellous. Who'd have thought it.
