BBC: UK shoppers have defied the harsh winter weather to spend during the last weekend before the Christmas holidays.
The New West End Company, which represents more than 600 traders in central London, said sales were up 10% on last year's sluggish trading.
"We estimate £140m to be spent over the weekend and we are looking to go over a million people," it said.
Heavy snowfall has caused traffic chaos in many parts of the UK, and is expected to continue on Sunday.
Sales were reported to be brisk across the UK, while credit card firm Visa expects people to keep spending this week.
Visa expects to process a new record of more than 17 million transactions in the UK on 23 December, up 16% from the same day last year.
WHY IS THE USA LAGGING IN RETAIL SALES WHILE THE BRITS ARE SURGING!??!
COULD IT BE THAT OBAMA IS SPENDING TOO MUCH TIME ON AGE AND OBAMACARE AND NOT ON THE ECONOMY!?
YES.
AND IT'S ALSO BECAUSE OBAMA HAS NOT BEEN OUT SHOPPING HIMSELF.
- IF RAHM AND AXELROD AND OBAMA AND JARRETT WERE AS SMART AS THEY THINK THEY ARE, THEN THEY'D HAVE BARRY AND MICHELLE AND THE GIRLS OUT ON SHOPPING PHOTO OPS EVERYDAY!
- THE POTUS IS THE TEAM CAPTAIN OF THE USA, AND HE SHOULD BE LEADING US.
- INSTEAD OBAMA IS HECTORING FOX AND THE GOP AND WHINING ABOUT IMAGINARY PROBLEMS THAT MOST CITIZENS DON;T GIVE A CRAP ABOUT (CUZ THEY'RE IMAGINARY).
I GIVE OBAMA AN "F" FOR CHRISTMAS.
IF OBAMA REALLY WAS CRYPTO-MUSLIM AND/OR A "BLACK LIBERATIONIST CHRISTIAN" WHO HATED "WHITE CHRISTMAS", THEN WOULD HE BE SHOPPING AS LITTLE AS HE HAS!?
YES.
