Christmastime is quietly creeping closer. Today brings us 80 days away from this gift giving celebration. Instead of waiting until the last minute to handle your holiday shopping needs, why not get a head start now to save yourself some time? After all, the sooner you start on those wish lists, the sooner you can put your mind at ease while everyone else scrambles around you. Here are some helpful tips for early Christmas shopping: Come up with a budget and adhere to it to avoid overspending. Yard sales and flea markets are often overlooked, but perfect for steals on vintage items. Create gift categories rather than shopping separately for each person. Buy similar items at the same time. Also, if you are unsure of what to gift a client or business associate, consider sending a few gourmet goodies. Our Classic Gift Box will ensure that they have a holly, jolly Christmas!
