“…right now the shops are rammed with people spending. Ok.”

Must gave picked up since last month then:

https://www.ons.gov.uk/businessindustryandtrade/retailindustry/bulletins/retailsales/october2024

“Retail sales volumes (quantity bought) are estimated to have fallen by 0.7% in October 2024, following a rise of 0.1% in September 2024 (revised down from 0.3% in our last publication)."

Non-food stores sales volumes fell on the month as retailers reported that Budget uncertainty affected sales.”

We’ll have to see how it goes when this month’s figures are released,
