The growth rate was 0.8%, while in May 2009 it dropped by 0.8%. The overall sales increased by 3%, compared with an increase of 0.8% in May 2009.

Because of the good weather, clothing and footwear sales benefit.

Sales of household goods have improved, but the sale of large ticket products is not good. Although the shopping centres continue to offer discounts and promotions, consumers are still in the market.

And the income situation is uncertain, so the sales situation is still bad.

In May, non food free shop sales (Internet, mail order and Telesales) increased by 21.9% over the same period last year, an increase of 15.9% over April.

Although it is the best month for sale since December, the growth rate in May is relatively weak compared with that in May 2009.

Stephen Robertson, director general of the association, said: "sales in May are more instructive for potential development trends, because the Easter season has been affected in the past few months.

The campaign does not largely change the way consumers consume, but it remains to be seen whether future budgets will suffer a lot. Many retailers still rely on promotional activities.

Sales of clothing and shoes are generally good, but the performance of women's clothing is still bad.

However, the sale of furniture and floor coverings will once again bottom up, highlighting the uncertainty of consumers who are unwilling to buy large ticket products. "
