What days of the week are retail shops in Oklahoma busiest?
Fridays and Saturdays are busy at retail shops across the country, and things were no different for Oklahoma retail businesses.
Fridays were particularly big, as 20% of all retail revenue in Oklahoma came in on that day alone. On average, only 29% of retailers keep their doors open on Sundays in Oklahoma, making it easily the slowest day of the week overall.
Among transacting businesses, Fridays and Saturdays were the biggest days of the week in terms of foot traffic, with Oklahoma retail shops processing an average of 12 transactions per day.
Oklahomans spend more per transaction on weekdays, with Mondays claiming the largest average ticket size of the week at $70.34 per ticket. Still, average ticket price remains fairly consistent throughout the week except for Sundays, when lower-ticket-item shops are perhaps more likely to remain open than higher-end boutiques.
What time of year do retail shops in Oklahoma make the most money?
Oklahomans clearly love to shop regardless of the season, but what does the average year look like from week to week at retail shops in Oklahoma? Let's take a look.
May was the biggest month of the year overall for retail shops in the Sooner State, no doubt thanks to a huge lift from Mother's Day Weekend. The week leading up to the holiday was the 2nd biggest week of the year, and the week before that was the 5th. While May may have been the biggest month of the year overall, Valentine's Day was responsible for the single-biggest week of the year for Oklahoma retailers: February 11th through the 17th.
