christmas eve 4

Christmas is just a few hours away!

While some already have their presents wrapped and under the tree, others are still scrambling to find some last-minute gifts!

Waay 31's grace campbell joins us live at bridge street town center in huntsville, and grace, have you seen many people out shopping today?

Sophia - i've been here off and on throughout the day and there's been a steady amount of people shopping.

A few even told me they were just starting their christmas shopping!

There's been lines out the door at stores here at bridge street.

And a packed parking lot at walmart.

Many were out shopping today because they said christmas snuck up on them.

Others said they were busy with school and work.

One last-minute shopper told me he's had no problem finding the perfect gifts today.

"i've found quite a few things that i wasn't sure on what to get people, and coming out here to bridge street you've got so many different varieties of stores that it allows you to kind of do that a little better than online, and i like that person-to-person interaction.

So, yeah i've had a good day and have finding a lot of good things."

Sikora said all the stores have kept items spaced out to allow for social distancing, and enforcing masking.
