Co reported on Saturday record single-day sales for Nov 29 of more than $1.43 bln at domestic stores, compared to $1.25 bln recorded for the similar post-Thanksgiving day in 2001; sales increase was driven by improvements in both customer count and avg ticket, and top-selling categories were home electronics, small appliances, and toys.
