Shoppers take advantage of last minute deals on Super Saturday
Shoppers take advantage of last minute deals on Super SaturdayShoppers take advantage of last minute deals on Super Saturday. Alicia Vitarelli reports during Action News at 9 a.m. on December 23, 2017.

Better late than never. We will hear that a lot today as millions of people jam stores for Super Saturday.

It is the final full day to scoop up bargains as most malls and other businesses extend hours.

Today is also jokingly dubbed Panic Saturday because 126 million people will still be looking for gifts.

Today is the last day Target is offering free shipping with no minimums. It is also the last day for free one-day shipping for Amazon Prime members in select cities.

So many people take to their phones or computers to find markdowns. Others do it the old fashion way, on foot in stores.

A recent survey showed some gifts will not be bought until after Christmas. Retailers will look for those shoppers for that extra economic jolt to end the year.
