Town Center Mall Shopping Hours, Pictures with Santa

I admit that I'll be braving the crowds at Town Center at Cobb today to do some last-minute shopping. If you too are a proud procrastinator, take a look at the mall's special holiday hours below:

• Friday, Dec. 23: 8 a.m. to 11 p.m.
• Christmas Eve, Dec. 24: 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.
• Christmas, Dec. 25: Mall Closed
• Monday, Dec. 26: 8 a.m to 9 p.m.
• New Year's Eve, Dec. 31: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
• New Year's Day, Jan. 1: 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Also, there's still a chance to take the kids to see Santa today and tomorrow. Photo packages range in price and start at $24.99. Santa will be available during the following hours:

• Friday, Dec. 23: 9 a.m. to 9:30 p.m.
• Christmas Eve, Dec. 24: 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.  

Happy holidays, and happy shopping! Be sure to say hello if you spot me around the mall. Like many of you, I'll be pushing a stroller while frantically hopping from store to store in search of the perfect last-minute gifts.
