Comp traffic was down 1.8%, while average ticket increased 0.4%. Despite comps being lower than expected, we continued to generate market share gains. According to The Nielsen Company, we gained 20 basis points of market share in the measured category of 'food, consumables and health & wellness/OTC' during the 13-weeks ended Apr. 27, 2013." |
