I really really hate going to stores this time of the year as well just way too much pushing and waiting for the next person to move their carts.

Yes...that's why either shop early or online.  If I have to get last minute items, then i try to go really earlier or really late to try to avoid the crowd.

I know, every store is so packed during the holiday months. The aisles aren't big enough to accommodate the crowds. I try to get in and out as fast as possible.

 :) I enjoy watching the kids eyes and expressions. The store is full of wonder and awe for them.  :)

I had the same kind of shopping trip yesterday.  Mine started in the parking lot.  Due to health issues I can't walk very far & there were no handicapped spots so about three spots down from the handicapped a woman had just put her last bag in so I pulled way over to the right so cars could get by.  I had two different vehicles sit behind me even though they could get by and blare their horns.  I was ready to explode or cry I'm not sure which before I ever got into the store & inside was just as bad.  Oh well.

I have heard a lot of people say they will be glad when the holidays are over.  Not because they hate Christmas or the holiday season.  They are just tired of people and over all how they act.
I have not really noticed it being that much busier.  But I have not been to the mall or any where like that.  The week of Christmas it will be busy because people will be buying last minute gifts and food for Christmas day.

Listening to them scream, whine and cry when they don't get what they want?  Talking back to their parents?  Running wild and shoving and knocking stuff off the shelves?  Nah, I would rather avoid that. lol

Having worked retail for over 15 years, I do not care to be in them if I don't have too. Drove 80 mile to the nearest Walmart Wednesday, but left early and go home early. It was really getting crowed when we left though.  I do not like being pushed  or having to constantly saying excuse me just to get from point a to point b because of people just blocking the way talking or will not keep their baskets  out of the way. Oh well made it home in one piece.
