We also share figures from Barclays, KPMG and high street tracker BDO:

- According to BDO’s High Street Sales Tracker, the week of Black Friday provided retailers with a much-needed boost, with in-store and non-store sales soaring by 24% and 28% respectively.

- 42% of Brits wouldn’t be engaging in the sales bonanza at all according to research by KPMG.
