The mid-season clearance sales of Australian retailers are expected to benefit from a chilly start to winter across much of the country. The cold weather is likely to boost demand for warm clothing, allowing department stores and specialty retailers to reduce their winter inventory. Myer has commenced its clearance sale more than a week ahead of schedule, and aims to sell about $150m worth of stock, while David Jones is offering big discounts in its mid-year sale.
