The chair of John Lewis has said that consumers are starting to budget and are more conscious of spending, despite being eager to celebrate the first “normal” Christmas in three years.

Dame Sharon White said, during a panel debate at the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) Annual Conference, that there were signs of shoppers changing their habits as a result of cost-of-living pressures.

She told the CBI: “This is the first Christmas for three years that people get to spend with family, friends and loved ones, and I think people will be really excited to have a proper Christmas. But you can see all sorts of things going on with consumer spending.
