What is the busiest shopping day of the week in retail?

Saturday is ALWAYS the busiest. Wednesday is the quietest. I’ve worked in retail for ages and in loads of different shopping centres and it is always the same.

I agree with UK about Saturday. I used to be in retail managment, Sunday had a crowd too but lookers not buyers.

In the insurance business, the busiest day is Tuesday.

Well, Saturday’s are. Most people are off from work, at least the ones with a full-time job who work regularly and can afford it. It’s like a weekend activity. If you’re ever wondering the best day to shop, it’s Wednesday. Working at JCPenney, those are when a lot of our sales switch off with each other and depending on the time of day, you can find a good deal. Of course, there are exceptions to this, such as Black Friday and everything:)
