simon. >> allen, this is prime money- making time for small mom and pop shops like jeffrey's toys here in san francisco as they do battle with the down economy and with bigger stores moving in on their turf. there is no shortage of stuff to buy. >> christmastime is the big time of the year. we are always busy but christmastime is always the busiest. >> reporter: just two blocks down bustling market street at the westfield shoppping center, a toys 'r us is set up an express shot a smaller venue designed to take advantage of the holiday rush. listen to the company's ceo. >> we are going to reach every nook and cranny of american's every and that's what we are doing with these holiday stores. >> reporter: last year they opened 90 express stores. this year, it's opening 600 more. at jeffrey's, what did you think? >> i didn't really think much. i did i than the it was going

to affect us -- i didn't think it was going to affect us in any way. >> reporter: no one store can hog the entire toy market and besides, different stores serve different needs. toys 'r us express in a mall setting works for some. >> they have more stuff for sale and it's cheaper and you get more stuff for less. it's more convenient. >> reporter: jeffrey's works for others. >> they are very nice. we come to jeffrey's because it's convenient and it's always open. the springup stores aren't available all the time. >> reporter: what did you get in here today? >> a binocular. >> it's more pleasurable for me. >> reporter: how? >> well, they just have the old-fashioned toys and it's just not all plastic toys. >> reporter: one reason jeffrey's doesn't really sweat toys 'r us moving into the neighborhood is because they have already survived fao schwarz and the disney store moving in. so allen, really not that much of a difference for them.

and it really does depend. they have niche. >> there is this -- tomorrow is the first-ever small business saturday thing which is a national deal. i'm sure all small businesses are hoping to reason the benefits of that. >> everybody certainly would like to have more people coming in. >> thank you, simon perez okay. were you part of the frenzy setting the alarm super early, fighting for parking and battling the crowds? sure, those alleged deals are a big draw but think about it. is this black friday business really worth it? on the consumerwatch, julie watts says, the early birds might not save as much as they think. julie? >> reporter: that's right, sydnie. it depends on how you pay for those black friday sales. we are here at the serramonte center where there is a steady stream of shoppers all night. some of these folks have actually been up since yesterday searching for the best black friday bargains. but, you know, according to

consumer reports, 13.6 million of shoppers nationwide just like these are still paying off last year's holiday debt and this year, they are expected to spend even more. how much money do you think you'll spend during the holiday season? >> $2,000, $3,000. >> i would say probably more like $2,000. >> we're paying on credit because we are going to the big department stores. >> reporter: and he is not alone. according to the national retail federation, the average american will spend $689 this holiday season. but tack on the average credit card interest rate and they are actually spending about $100 more. >> if i just did the calculations, you saved about 10% on your purchases. but you'll actually end up paying about $12 more because of credit card fees and service charges. >> i was not aware of that. >> if you are putting even great deals on a credit card, you might be negating your savings and paying much, much more. >> reporter: this marketing expert points to the obvious pitfalls of putting those black friday purchases on plastic,

something many have learned the hard way. >> i paid credit cards before and i'm not going to do that this year. >> i couldn't even qualify. they denied me. >> reporter: the national retail federation found four out of 10 americans will pay with debit instead of credit this year. and as a result, many stores are changing the way they do business. some brought back layaway and others like target have expanded store credit card offers to include debit. >> if somebody wants to come in without paying a fee open up a target debit card, direct to your debit account, you still save the 5%. >> reporter: so while research shows black friday shoppers are spending more money this year, many will be paying less when it comes to fees. >> we know what we're doing. >> yeah. i don't want to run up a big credit bill. >> reporter: whether paying with credit, debit on cold, hard cash, economists say it's good news for the economy that they are paying at all. apparently, the economy is largely dependent on this kind of consumer spending and for these stores, they get much of their annual income during the

last month and a half of the year, sydnie. >> julie, i'm looking at these shoppers behind you. looks like it's still going strong, the shoppping. >> reporter: absolutely still going strong. in fact, i ran into target to grab a couple of items for myself and basically waited in line for about 35, 40 minutes. it is still jam-packed. >> all right. julie, thank you very much. julie watts in daly city. well, we are happy to report that no one lost their life in the crowds today. you might remember the wal-mart employee who was killed under a mob of black friday shoppers. that was on long island in 2008. but there were some tense moments outside a toys 'r us near madison, wisconsin. this morning, a woman walked past a line of shoppers who had started gathering the night before. when they confronted her, she threatened to get her gun from her car. in the words of local police, she's now spending her shopping money to post bond. [ screaming ] >> in buffalo, new york, they barely go out of the gate.

apparently this target had deals worth trampling another human being for. but the real story in that buffalo target wasn't the trampled shoppers. it was the story of perseverance. take a look at the video. the man who he merged from the melee in apparently in immediate of a medic but what's a back injury? he shook it off, composed himself and struck out for aisle 6. watch enough television news and this might come as a surprise to you. in the everyone lives for the black friday consumer cattle call. don't believe us? well, we sent don knapp to find them. >> reporter: union square, san francisco. on the most important retime sales day of the computer. black friday. >> don't wear fur! >> reporter: a shopping day important to merchants and even the economy. but some people say it's a good day to avoid. one family visiting from san diego decided to skip union square and visit the de young museum. >> enjoy time with your family

instead of shopping. like i said, shop online and avoid the crowds. >> reporter: the pace is slower here. and on a higher plane. >> i want to do -- get cultured, go see a museum or movie or hang out with family. >> we love the thing, the impressionist stick or the post impressionistic artist. so we love the dorsey museum. we heard it was here today so this is why we're here. >> reporter: sounds awfully hifaluting. >> it's better than shopping. >> reporter: this san francisco bar pilot? >> is your everything at ocean beach in beautiful conditions. offshore winds, small fun waivers and i guess all the rest of the people are shopping because there's nobody in the water. >> reporter: and very few people in golden gate park. these folks came from fairfield and victorville but not for the shopping. >> crazy, busy. i can find the deals later. >> reporter: while shoppers may

wonder if they are getting a better deal than online or later in the season or if fighting crowds is worth the effort, karen is walking in the sand her mind at ease. >> i hate shopping. >> reporter: so what are you doing instead? >> walking off my meal, of course. >> reporter: what these folks saved on black friday was some time for themselves. >> i am not buying anything today, too crazy out there. >> reporter: instead you're doing what? >> i'm running and going to work. >> i think people are all nuts about it. i mean, i don't want to go -- i don't want to have dinner with my family and get up at midnight and wait in line for 50 bucks off a tv. not my idea of thanksgiving. >> reporter: shop till you drop or do just about anything else. to those who avoid black friday, it's a no-brainer. in san francisco, don knapp, cbs 5. well, to outsiders it might sound nostalgic but for small town residents it sounds very different. >> it gives me a reassuring

feeling that it's calling the firemen and if someone is having a crisis they are going to get help. >> it's a growing town facing noise complaints even a lawsuit. like giving up the old siren may be. possible. >> and another sad thought for those who love tradition. is it going to take some mad man style marketing genius to safety once timeless christmas tree? and i'm len ramirez in san jose where christmas in the park is back for another season. the question is, will it be back again next year? just ahead how much people are being asked to donate to try and save it. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

the young woman shot and killed on thanksgivin francisco.. is i checking bay area headlines, the young woman shot and killed on thanksgiving in san francisco is identified tonight as 23-year-old [ indiscernible ] that shooting happened in the japantown neighborhood of buchanan street and geary boulevard just before 9:00 last night. no arrests yet. and a motive is unclear. in san rafael, a police officer near a dui checkpoint was struck by an unlicensed and allegedly drunken driver. police say the driver, guillermo garcia suddenly stopped his suv and reversed

and hit the officer. rodriguez was arrested. the dmv is seriously backlogged. california dmv is two weeks behind schedule in processing license application. officials there blame the new licenses which have a lot more security features. it takes workers longer to scrutinize them. state worker furloughs are also being blamed for the delays. budget cuts are threatening a 50-year-old tradition in san jose. if the city or corporate donation don't come through, this year could be the last for christmas in the park. however, organizers have a solution. len ramirez joining us from san jose to show us one thing each visitor can do to help. i think i know what it is but i'm wondering how much. >> that's right. everyone has asked to be a little bit of santa claus in them this year. and donate at least a dollar to help keep this tradition alive. right now, we are waiting for the big tree to be lit behind me. it's just going to happen in a few minutes. but the question really is, is this going to happen for the last time here in downtown san jose?

at san jose's christmas in the park the fun is back in a big way. >> a lot of families are coming together, smiles on their face and a lot of rides, food. >> reporter: like many of the folks who come back every year, the nicholas marsh family of fremont has made this a family tradition. >> i been coming here for 32 years basically my whole life, you know, since i was born since i can remember. >> reporter: but that tradition may have to end. this year could be the last for christmas in the park. funding problems threaten to leave the celebration in the dark. >> because of the economic downturn, the city's budget to us was cut in half. that means we have to raise an additional $200,000 in order to bring christmas in the park back again next year. >> reporter: so in addition to the trees, toy train, mechanical elves and the nativity scene, visitors will see donations boxes in more places than before as a matter of survival. >> we had the theme help keep the lights burning so we implemented this sign and this

is the donation box and it will be at the 5 main entrance to christmas in the park. and while the park will not be gated and we do not charge an admission fee, we do ask that people put a dollar in the box. >> reporter: last year, 450,000 people attended christmas in the bark. if they all donated, the problem would be solved. >> i think it would be really sad if this is gone. >> reporter: her group decorates a christmas tree in the park that kids are proud to show parents. she says a buck is not too much to ask. >> i think it is reasonable. and it's a donation. as long as people aren't being forced, i guess to give something, but, you know, something can give something. it might help the cause. >> reporter: mr. marsh and his family agree. >> i think everybody can, you know, manage to go in their pockets and take out a buck. >> the lights just came on. the crowd is appreciative of that. the question again is will it happen again next year? allen, there is no guarantee of

that. as of july 1st, christmas in the park is out of the san jose city budget. so it's really up to the folks around here to make that tradition keep happening. >> it's a shame when you see the sight behind you and hear the ooos and aaa. s from the kids and everybody, it's worthwhile. >> reporter: to see the looks on the kids' faces, every year new kids come in and to see them enjoy it, it's special. my kids have enjoyed it over the years and i'm sure many kids around here have grown up doing that. they want their kids to be part of that tradition. we'll see what happens. >> we'll see if people come through. i bet they do. len ramirez in san jose, thanks. and as you can see from len's live shot there, a beautiful, beautiful evening. but let's go to lawrence now for a changing forecast. >> yeah. the deep freeze over the last couple of days but the clouds moving in means big changes not going to be as cold but rain is bearing down on the bay area. outside the clouds continuing

to make their way across our skies. no rain just yet. but it is not that far away. likely going to see some rain developing overnight tonight across the entire bay area. so with that in mind, let's check out the doppler radar and check things out right now as most of the rain located in far northern california. you can see showers up in toward the eureka area, showers beginning to make their way further south. we'll time it out. in the meantime the clouds will continue to moving across the skies. that's good news. not going to see that record- breaking cold temperatures overnight tonight. just that nice blanketed of clouds making their way across our skies. also the rain going to help to warm things up in the atmosphere. so tonight still cool. 40s and 50s, more clouds. if you are staying out late tonight toward midnight bring your umbrella you may need it as we are expecting rain. temperatures are going to be cool for tomorrow again. and we have that rain to contend with.

50s and rain everywhere. not a total washout this weekend as we head in towards sunday. looks like partly cloudy skies and dry on sunday. warmer dry weather continuing on monday and tuesday. a chance of rain returning to the bay area toward the middle of next week. back to you. >> thank you. at a time when good marketing can mean financial life or death, does the christmas tree need a new pr campaign? that's in two minutes. ,,,,,,
