ABERDEEN was John Lewis's best performing department store in the week to 8 November, recording only a 2.2 per cent fall in sales compared with a drop of 9.7 per cent throughout the chain as a whole.

Bucking the trend were handbag sales and games consoles, with the company reporting its best week ever for Nintendo Wii sales.
