"Visa, the No. 1 issuer of credit cards, said sales rung up on its cards Black Friday" -- blurb -- "and Saturday rose 14.3 percent from last year to more than $7.4 billion."

"Visa's rival, MasterCard International, said Sunday that the number of credit transactions this weekend was up 9.3 percent from last year, with a 10.1 percent increase on Black Friday alone."

"Online, sales rose sharply, with a 100 percent increase on Thanksgiving Day and a 41 percent rise on Black Friday, according to figures from online merchant research firm comScore Networks."

"But the cloud in the bright picture came Saturday from Wal-Mart" URL ", which lowered its sales estimates for November after seeing customer traffic decline toward the end of the week that ended Friday."

Walmart "now expects to report a 0.7 percent increase in November same-store sales, less than the 2 to 4 percent gain it has been projecting for most of this month."
