Busiest shopping day of the year expected

Retailers in London have been preparing for a busy shopping day, expecting it to be their busiest ever due to Christmas falling on a Tuesday and schools breaking up late. Shoppers are anticipated to spend £4-5 billion over the weekend, with peak shopping hours between 2:00 and 3:00 PM. Despite requests, the government did not relax Sunday trading rules, leading to a condensed shopping period. Retailers like Marks and Spencer and Waitrose are extending hours and working around the clock to meet demand, highlighting the challenges of managing increased shopper traffic in limited time.
