Clothing and other accessories were the top gainers, adding 2.5 percent, followed by household goods at 1.7 percent, food at 1.6 percent, restaurants and department stores at 1.1 percent and other retailing at 0.2 percent.
By region, South Australia was the top gainer at 3.1 percent, followed by the Australian Capital Territory at 2.7 percent, Victoria at 2.1 percent, New South Wales at 1.3 percent, Western Australia at 0.7 percent, Queensland at 0.6 percent and the Northern Territory at 0.5 percent. Tasmania was unchanged.
