NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--The International Council of Shopping Centers Retail Chain Store Sales Index rose by 0.1% in the week to Aug. 30 from its level a week before, on a seasonally-adjusted, comparable store basis.
This result Wednesday followed a 0.2% increase in the prior week.
"Because sales promotions are rampant, this helped drive some customer traffic at times during the month," said Michael P. Niemira, ICSC's chief economist and director of research.
ICSC also said in a statement that a break at the gas pump allowed consumers to spend a little more last week.
On a year-on-year basis, retailers saw sales increase by 2.2% in the latest week. That is slightly lower than the 2.3% year-on-year rise in the prior week.
