What's Your Opinion?
Compiled by Bill O'Neill

Question: Are you a last-minute shopper or do you try to get most of it done before the final rush? Why?


"I'm a last-minute shopper. I wait the whole year before Igo. I tell my kids the joy of the holidays is just getting together with family on Halloween, Thanksgiving and the entire holiday season - not getting gifts. So Iget the gifts at the last minute." Phillip Moore, Canarsie
"I already did my holiday shopping. I went Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving). Iused to wait until the last minute, but I heard so much about Black Friday. So I tried it - went out early this year." Tanisha Durden, Canarsie
"I always go the last day. Ikeep putting it off. I always procrastinate. I think I'm going to get the best deal just before the holidays - but then I find there's nothing left." Pete Harrison, Williamsburg
"I do everything well before the holidays, a little bit at a time. So I beat the last-minute mad rush and I get things a little cheaper." Brenda Freso, Canarsie
