Dec 22, 2017 at 17:19 comment added whuber The advantages of tracking actual sales by store include (but are not limited to) (1) being able to assess the distribution of sales across all stores at each week and (2) being able to assess the correlations between sales, by store, from week to week. This makes powerful techniques like time series analysis available to you.
Dec 22, 2017 at 17:16 comment added Russ Harris My bad - I pasted the average sales. I edited the question. Will I get better results if I use actuals instead of averages?

Dec 22, 2017 at 15:56 comment added whuber If indeed the control stores were "very similar" to the test stores, then why are their total weekly sales almost the same despite having ten times as many control stores? Something's not consistent in your description. For the best analysis of this situation, you ought to examine the actual weekly sales of all 110 stores, not just their totals.
