LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - The secret this holiday season may have been to wait until the last minute. Many stores are slashing prices up to 60 percent the day before Christmas Eve and drawing in the crowds.

Shopper Diane Everse said, "Well it's not crowded there are great sales. I have a feeling a little later on in the day it will be worse but right now it's great."

Shannon Holdener says the deals coming out in stores days before Christmas are unbelievable, "Oh my gosh. I was out at the summit yesterday and I was amazed at the prices. Everything was an extra 40 percent off. It's crazy deals."

Take note for next year. These shoppers say the secret is to come early in the morning. That way you can browse through all the sales you want without feeling rushed or crowded.
