Same-store retail sales increased 7% in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024. The increase in total and same-store retail sales was primarily due to continued strong demand for value priced merchandise and increased inventory levels during the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024.
