Last-Minute Holiday Buyers Flood Popular Shopping Centers For 'Super Saturday'
NOVI (WWJ) -- Forget Black Friday -- Super Saturday seems to be taking over as the busiest shopping day of the year. One shopper, Kaitlin from Fraser, called Twelve Oaks Mall in Novi "ground zero."
"It's a mad house. There's lots of little kids dressed up in their Christmas outfits to see Santa," Kaitlin said. "The line was kind of long, I'm glad I don't have kids, so I didn't have to stand in line. It looked hectic, but it looks like they're having fun."
Finding that perfect holiday gift was almost as tough as finding a space to park as last-minute shoppers flooded to popular shopping center.
Many local shoppers were out searching for last-minute gifts on the final Saturday before Christmas, like Lanzo of West Bloomfield.
"I don't do a lot of Christmas shopping anymore, my kids are a lot older now," Lanzo said. "It's also for my wife's birthday too, so I'm doing some Christmas shopping and some birthday shopping."
Super Saturday is expected to be the top sales day of the year, surpassing Black Friday.
