It's Christmas Eve and of course, that means family, parties, food and very long lines on Arthur Avenue.

The lines were seen wrapped around the block on Tuesday.

Even though the lines were long, it has become a part of the festivities every year for some.

"It's family, it's tradition, you know you gotta come. So every year we make the trip. Grandparents can't do it anymore so we do it!" said a shopper.
