UK retail sales fell by 0.3% in February as online sales growth slowed and there were large falls in alcohol and tobacco store sales.
Those falls may be linked to higher spending in pubs and restaurants as confidence increased in going out, the Office for National Statistics said.
Online sales volumes fell by 4.8% over the month following strong growth in December and January.
February's unexpected fall followed a 1.9% rise in January.
