Black Friday shopping is a tradition for Lee Hilts.
"I do a little bit of research every Wednesday morning to see what I want to get," said Hilts.
Lee was armed with his list ready to shop for his wife and daughter and he's also enjoying the lack of crowds. He says he thinks everyone shopped Thanksgiving Day.
"Ever since they changed the 5 p.m. thing the crowds do (sic) down so it's wonderful for me," Lee added.
