As the clock ticks to Christmas Day, procrastinating parents are on the prowl for toys. Last minute shoppers spent Christmas Eve scouring stores like Target and Toys R Us in search of anything and everything for their little ones.

Hot items include Wii products, Dora the Explorer, Hot Wheels, even Rock and Roll Elmo. Many shoppers admit there's no excuse for waiting so long. However, they say waiting does pay off...many items were on sale Friday.

"We got her (his daughter) probably $200 worth of stuff for under $100," says Richard Lister, last minute shopper.

 "This was $189 with 50 dollars off to $139 and then Toys R Us had a coupon so we ended up getting it for little over $100," says Maria Acoff, last minute shopper.

"There's better prices than there were on Black Friday," says Laura Bruno, last minute shopper.
