Read our privacy policy Shoppers are set to spend less on fast fashion brands in this year’s Boxing Day sales, new research by Barclaycard has found. However, the survey found some shoppers still do intend to make the most of the Boxing Day discounts, with four in 10 expected to spend an average of £186 each.
