Guess what the most popular item consumers bought this Black Friday
Quick Glance: Black Friday Disappoints UK Shoppers
  • Sales in cash terms are expected to be on a par with 2022, but prices are higher due to inflation, meaning fewer items will be sold.

  • Online activity was flat and footfall at shopping destinations was down by more than 5%.

  • Black Friday is no longer a single-day event, but now starts in November and runs for several weeks.

  • Some retailers saw a slight uplift, but sales are only expected to increase by 0.4% over last year, according to analysis by GlobalData for Vouchercodes.co.uk.
