EDINA, Minn. — The holiday hustle is heating up. Grocery stores were packed on Monday with people racing to pick up those last-minute items. 

At Jerry's Foods in Edina, the parking lot was filled and customers lined up at the check-out counters. 

"This is like, insane, I should have come this morning," said shopper Irene Plantenberg.

The store was filled with the sounds of live music, and employees rushing around to keep items in stock. Store Director Derrel Link said meats and seafood are the items that are going fast.
