The trend is clear especially in electronics, where spending has skyrocketed from a little above $160 to almost $190.
That figure is the average spending per user post-Black friday. The main winners were Best Buy—with a 18.3% year-over-year growth—and Fry's—with a 12.2%. No only that but, spending in high end retail has also increased, reverting a negative trend. [Mint (http://www.mint.com/blog/trends/the-return-of-retail-holiday-spending-2009/?display=wide)]
