MIDLAND -- The Christmas holiday is over -- and for some, that means time to return some of those gifts.
At Best Buy in Midland, the line was extensive Monday afternoon. It was still much shorter than it was on Sunday, when store managers say it looked like Black Friday in the store. While some people were returning larger items, most were just looking to make a trade.
"Most of what we see yesterday and today is going to be more exchanges of items like games, music, movies... where people already have a title and are just swapping it for something else," a store employee told Big 2.
If you do need to return something, bring your patience with you. You also should have your receipt handy, because that can make the transaction faster.
If you don't have the receipt, many stores can only offer in-store credit.
