Specifically, ShopperTrak’s latest National Retail Sales Estimate (NRSE) notes that online sales attached to ‘Super Saturday’ (December 19), which is the final Saturday before Christmas, leapt to $767 million USD in 2009 – a year-on-year improvement of some 13 percent.

Conversely, retails sales attributed to traditional bricks-and-mortar outlets plunged by 12.6 percent, while foot traffic through stores across the United States fell by around 12.4 percent.

so net/net, we're about flat on the yoy comparison (last year being a nearly 5% drop)

green shooots!!!!

Was in Kohls tonight. The only line was the one for returns at the Customer Service Desk. About 30 people in line there. Other cashiers were standing around. Store activity was normal for a Monday.
