UK Christmas Toy Spend – Infographic

As the Black Friday sales week starts, NetVoucherCodes.co.uk has gathered some interesting figures on toy sales from last year. Toy sales during the festive season account for 34% of all toy spending during the year, from total revenues in the region of an incredible £1.2bn.

If you think about this figure alongside the fact that 40% of children’s toys are typically replaced each year, then what an enormous amount of time, effort & money goes into not only purchasing new toys but also clearing kids rooms of unused/unwanted toys from years gone by.
