Retailers are calling the day after Christmas, Black Friday Two, while shoppers are calling the day's deep discounts a deal!
The crowds were not as thick as they were before Christmas but the stores at Bel Air Mall were full of bargains.
Stores like JC Penny opened their doors as early as 6 am. Several retailers slashed their prices by 50 percent.
News Five spoke with a couple of shoppers who just couldn't pass up on some of the sales.
"Fifty percent off on the Swarovski, Waterford those type of ornaments, so that kind of comes in pretty well...not too cheap but even better the day after,"Said Lance Slade. "I just came mostly to go for after Christmas sales, see the Christmas ornaments and wrapping paper and all that kind of stuff. You don't want to wait until next year then you'll pay full price,"Said Maureen Hansen.
Despite today's deep discounts analysts say it still may not be enough to save a slumping holiday season.
