    Retail New Zealand is warning dismal Boxing Day sales reinforces there's a way to go for consumers to be ready to spend again


    New Worldline data reveals sales on December 25 were down 12.4-percent compared to 2024.

    She says maybe Black Friday sales ate into cash formerly saved for Boxing Day.
