“It’s not as busy as it used to be, so it’s a nice day, and we are off,” he said.

Riddle added after shopping, he is looking forward to seeing his two-year-old daughter open presents Christmas morning.

Other Londoners in the mall were a bit more prepared this year.

“I was actually done last week; I usually wait to the last minute, but this year I finished early,” Vince Gavin said.

If you still have some gifts to pick up or enjoy watching the chaos, Masonville Mall and White Oaks will both be open until 9:30 tonight.

For your last-minute Christmas Eve shopping, White Oaks will be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. tomorrow, and Masonville is open from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.
