It seems like Black Friday was just yesterday, and now here we are at Christmas Eve.

Experts estimate 23 million people nationwide finished their holiday shopping the day before Christmas.

Where Black Friday shoppers were camping out early and on for the hunt of the deal, Christmas Eve shoppers have lists, a deadline and strategies of their own.

They had their cell phones in hand and closing time on their minds.

Nationally, consumer reports says Americans spent an average of 15 hours on holiday shopping this year.

Some retailers depend on the holidays to make up a third of the sales for the entire year.

The National Retail Federation predicts that holiday sales will reach more than $451.5 billion this year, up 3.3 percent over last year.

Coastal Grand Mall will open again at 9:00 am Sunday Morning. Belk, Sears, and JCPenny open at 7:00 am. Dillards will open at 11:00 am. Best Buy will open at 8:00 am.
