Most of my life I've had to work that day - not retail, just a regular job.
One year I was off and decided to go out that day. I waited until late morning thinking the crowds would already be gone. I wanted to go to a store that was in the same area as the mall.
Hit the traffic miles away from the mall. Complete stop, only inching along. I was stuck and couldn't get out of it. When I was only a few blocks away from the store I hear tires squealing behind me, then crash - looked in my mirror just in time to see a van flying through the air towards me. It landed on the side of the road one car behind me.
I turned off the highway at the first chance and went back home. (less than a block from the store I wanted to go to)
The people were crazy and I didn't even make it to the store parking lot. Yikes. Never again.
