'Organised' shopping at The Mall in Sutton Coldfield
The Mall Sutton Coldfield can report that footfall over the Christmas build up has increased by 9 per cent. Sales are steadily increasing, with fashion accessories, including shoes and handbags, taking the number one spot and jewellers following very close behind.

Top selling toys are the Sony PSP and the new XBox 360 and stores are struggling to meet demand.

Customers appear to be more organised and know exactly what they want. Shorter, high-spend visits seem to be the norm, with a good festive atmosphere throughout.

The Mall Giving Tree has generated an excellent response, alongside our famous Grotto and Oscar, the singing bear.
