There was plenty of last-minute shopping across Bay Area shopping centers on Sunday.
KPIX found shopper Robert Ricks who was on a mission with a tight deadline.
“I’m going to Shoe Palace to go buy somebody a pair of shoes for Christmas,” said Ricks, as he walked to the store. “I procrastinate every year, and I wait until last minute to shop. So I’m always on the same time, one day before Christmas.”
Ricks began his Christmas shopping on Sunday morning in Emeryville’s Bay Street Shopping Center.
