With one week away from Christmas, shoppers are hitting up stores big and small to finish up their gift list.
Many told KPIX this holiday season feels almost like 2019 normal. They noticed more people are out and about, fewer masks, and people walking around with an upbeat attitude."The way it's going now, I think we'll beat 2019 this year. For that, I'm thankful," said Sonny Han, owner of Payn's Stationery."I plan on working everyday until the end of the month, except for Christmas day," said Han.
Across the street from Han's store, at Shoes on Solano, the store is offering discounts to draw more customers in. Many small businesses on Solano Avenue told KPIX they're making less money this holiday season compared to last year."Being sheltered in place for so long has kind of taught people how to shop alternatively," said Eversole-Rose.
It's a huge contrast from Union Square. The popular San Francisco shopping district was packed on Saturday evening with thousands of people walking around.
