Last Minute Shoppers Hit The Stores

Last minute shoppers can’t procrastinate much longer as the countdown to Christmas is just five days away.
 
According to a US News and World Report, 1 in 4 Americans have still not purchased their holiday gifts.    And it turns out the men might be the biggest procrastinators.
But the deals are still out there, with shoppers filling West Acres Mall.

“Well I have three kids all very busy in sports so this was kind of the last free weekend that we have to do any type of shopping,” says Jeanie Coborn of Osage, MN.
 
“All day shopping is something I try to avoid at all costs but inevitably it has to happen and coming out here to west acres hasn’t been very painful because really the crowds have been manageable. The sales are great however I’m gravitating toward the gift cards because the people on my list are so fussy,” says Sue Klassen of Mentor, MN.
 
According to the Report December 16th is the top day for deals on toys. But topping the nation’s wish list for the ninth year in a row are gift cards.
