Photo of the Night: Toys (Backwards R) Us at 1 a.m. :(
Yes, people were shopping early Christmas Eve in Santa Cruz, since Toys R Us stayed open all night long.
However, they threatened to throw me out if I took a picture. Seems CORPORATE needs to approve all pictures. Next time, I'll shop at a non-corporate store, I promise.
After telling me to leave, the manager let me stay since I had some shopping to do.
I was curious to see who took advantage of the all-night shopping. One thing I noticed was a nurse in uniform from Dominican Hospital nearby. Another, a Jag, which I'm guessing was someone else from that institution.
Other than that, it looked like a bunch of frazzled parents trying to get some shopping in without the crowds. And, there definitely weren't crowds, but a few people in each aisle.
Wonder what it was like at 3 a.m.?
