Michiganders rush stores for last-minute Christmas shopping

FRASER, Mich. – Many of us have already bought all the gifts this Christmas Eve and traveled to our holiday destination, but others are just getting started.

Doors at the Meijer store in Fraser opened at 6 a.m. Shopping on Christmas Eve can be a gamble, but if you start early enough, it’s almost like you were ready for the holiday.

Christmas Eve is one of the busiest shopping days of the year and retailers are hoping for a year-end bounce to finish off the holiday season.

If you’re trying to get out of a store quickly, self-checkout might be your best bet.

Meijer closes at 7 p.m. and is closed on Christmas Day.
