So, according to the L.A. Times, the Macy's store in Queens Center Mall in NYC opens tomorrow morning at 7 a.m. and doesn't close again till 6 p.m. Monday night (107 hours later, for those keeping count... that's a lot of kaching--assuming anyone shows up). Some J.C. Penney stores will stay open till midnight this weekend, Mervyn's till 2 a.m., and Kmart plans a 64-hour binge starting at 6 o'clock Saturday morning. Here's my question... Does anyone shop at 3am? This article says there are four types of shoppers... neurotic, psychotic, compulsive, or normal. Seems to me that anyone poking through the clearance rack at Macy's in the hour of the wolf might fall into one of those other-than-normal categories. But, given my lack of shopping skills, it's entirely possible that I'm just missing something here... maybe extreme shopping is the way to go. As always, I still haven't done most of my Christmas shopping... What's your secret to getting the best deals and beating the crowds during the holidays? Any shopping horror stories?
