Maybe today in some places, but most people don't wait until CHRISTMAS EVE to rush out and buy, buy, BUY!!!
But a local ABC affiliate just did a "news" story saying that since the "shopping season" is 6 days shorter this year, there will be a "mad scramble" the whole time just to buy the latest crap.
"Buy gifts! Buy gifts! BUY GIFTS!!!'
Sheesh.
