As crazy as this may sound, there are people who dislike holiday shopping so much that given a choice, they'd rather have a root canal.

A survey commissioned by GameIt found almost one-third of the respondents felt having a root canal would be less painful than shopping.

When it came to the sexes, more men (36%) than women (28%) would opt for the root canal.

The survey found men, people living in the south and adults over the age of 55 disliked holiday shopping the most.

GameIt founder Bryce Johnson said, "Even more people than we expected can't stand holiday shopping".
