Thousands of people in Tayside and Fife were out in the city centre for the last full weekend of Christmas shopping.
However, the crowds appeared to fall short of previous record-breaking years.
Although no official figures were available, Susie Fisher from Dundee’s Overgate Centre said an estimated 60,000 people had gone through the centre yesterday.
However, a spokesperson for the Wellgate said while it was very steady, overall it wasn’t as busy as previous years.
Dundonians on Twitter confirmed that feeling, with one man saying ”Christmas shopping, town quiet.”
Thousands more shoppers packed into Kingsway West retail park, while Tesco, Morrisons, Sainsbury’s and Asda supermarkets were also busy.
Electronic goods, mobile phones, computers and DVDs appeared to be the most popular items as shoppers made sure they took advantage of the many sale bargains.
Many stores have already started the traditional Boxing Day sales early and retail experts are predicting price cuts that could last for months.
