British shop prices fell in September for the fifth straight month, driven by deep discounts on non-food items, the British Retail Consortium said on Wednesday.
Prices fell by 0.2 percent compared with a year ago, the smallest drop since June.
The decline in prices was slowed down by easing deflation in the prices of clothing and footwear, furniture and electrical goods along with a return to inflationary territory in health and beauty products.
