We did our shopping around noon on Monday (day of Christmas Eve).
They didn't have anyone directing traffic, but all the checkout
counters were staffed with checkers and packers. So although there
was a boatload of people inside the store - there were no more than
two people at the counters: one waiting and one checking out... with
maybe a third walking up as the first was paying.
