through the streets of the old baroque town. dont know what a
stollen is?

uk shoppers spend big on christmas

heavy snow has caused havoc across the uk, but it hasnt
dampened peoples passion for shopping just one day ahead of
christmas.

shoppers crowd londons oxford street - one of the citys best
known shopping areas - on what is predicted to be the busiest
shopping day of the year.

the uks shoppers are expected to spend an average of 833,000
pounds every minute according to analysis by visa europe.

unexpectedly heavy snow prevented many shoppers from
completing their christmas purchases at the weekend - and the
catch up buyers will be joined by the habitual last minuters.

a shopper said, because of the snow we didnt get out earlier
in the week which we thought we might do.

another shopper said, i always leave things to the last minute
but this is fairly early for me there is a day and half to go.

across europe the snow has been a major delayer of
christmas purchasing according to the ceo of euro commerce,
xavier durieu who send spending had been well down in recent
weeks. he said, some countries speak about roughly the
minus ten percent due to the consumer not going shopping
and for trucks being prevented accessing the shops in many
countries such as germany, france, belgium and netherlands.

so much so that catch up buying will amount to 2 billion
pounds spent on visa in one day across european countries.

visa europe predicts over 18,000 card transactions every
minute, with around 124,000 pounds spent per second in the
final push for gifts and supplies before christmas.

richard dodd from the british retail consortium said it should
finally be good news for retailers. he said, i think there is a
really significant amount of catch up shopping so shopping
that people werent able to do because of the weather
disruption last weekend and earlier on in the month and i think
on top of the food shopping that will make today a big day and
that is certainly what retailers are looking for.

its predicted that thursdays spending is set to smash previous
records.

visa expects to process around 26.5 million transactions.

uk shoppers are also expected to buy now before a rise in
purchasing tax vat is introduced in january.

christmas celebrations grow in china

christians make up less than two percent of chinas
population, but christmas has quickly gained popularity in the
country. department stores, shops and markets are cashing in
by selling a large variety of festive gifts and decorations.

without much religious significance attached to it as in the
west, christmas has become a day for chinese to shop and
enjoy.

shop owner chen zhenfen said, the business during christmas
is much better than the chinese new year. because celebrating
christmas is a popular trend in china. christmas goods have
become very important to customers such as clubs and
restaurants.

chen says she makes about 100,000 yuan a day in sales
during the christmas season.

li jin, property management co. employee, said, i just bought
some decorations and christmas trees, mainly for creating a
kind of christmas atmosphere and decking the residence
compound. ive spent about one thousand yuan.

for most residents in beijing, christmas offers them another
good reason to celebrate.

beijing resident li ya said, chinese new year is a traditional
festival for all the chinese, but christmas has become an
important holiday for the young people.

some people also believe that celebrating the festival is also a
sign of china going international. according to a report by the
chinese academy of social sciences, the christian religion is
spreading quickly in china. among all christians in the country,
about 73.4 percent became christian after 1993.
