Black Friday Sales Up 6 Percent Over '05

Quote from Jonathan:

Wow, too bad Walmart missed out on all the sales. Everyone else is doing great. Haha.

6% is amazing! The Christmas rally might actually work from here. :)

6% is a good increase. This year sales came in at 8.96 billion.

Last year the 3 day total from FRIDAY to Sunday was 27.8 B.

6% is a good number but 1 day does not make the entire story.
 
Quote from brandon12:

wmt not included with that 6% sales and also remember huge discounting so little profits

They always give "discounts". 30% off signs bring in customers.

this year many retailers are offering DEEP discounts......
 
I'd belive WalMart before I believe some 6% increase put out by some survey firm but of course it gets on Yahoo to make everyone feel like everything is just hunky dory when in fact, retail stores are slashing prices like never before just to get people into the stores.

If Walmart sales sucked, rest assured others will not be reporting glowing numbers (once there in) IMO
