Sask. shoppers on spending spree
Retail sales in Saskatchewan soared upward by a nation-leading 14.4 per cent in April, compared to April 2007, according to Statistics Canada information released Friday.
That increase was more than double the national increase of 7.1 per cent and higher than Newfoundland and Labrador, which experienced an 11.4 per cent increase in retail sales -- the second-highest among the provinces.
Close to $1.2 billion in retail sales were made in April in Saskatchewan.
