Black Friday sales in the United States broke a new record - about $ 9 billion

Black Friday sales in the United States broke a new record - about $ 9 billion. The Americans seem to have coveted the shopping on the websites instead of storming the regular stores and department stores. Black Friday sales jumped twenty-two percent compared to last year, when purchases totaled $ 7 billion and $ 400 million. At the same time, there was a drop of more than fifty percent in the number of shoppers in regular stores
Data published last night by the Israeli credit card company, "ICC", showed that the purchases of Israeli citizens at the celebration of shopping on international websites amounted to NIS 60 million. This is a twenty percent increase over Black Friday last year. Fashion sites led with one hundred and thirty percent increase in purchases, and sales at health and nutrition sites grew by fifty percent.
