It's beginning to feel a lot like last-minute shopping for dozens hitting the stores on Tuesday.

Shoppers headed to the Bay Plaza Mall, keeping the parking lots packed and the stores busy.

Some stores opened their doors as early as 7 a.m. Business owners say all the extra sales make the extended hours worth it.

Some shoppers told News 12 that they actually enjoy the Christmas spirit sprint to the finish line.

While most of the stores at the mall are closed on Wednesday, the mall is open until midnight.
