The Smartest Ways to Start Your Holiday Shopping Early
Don’t wait until the last minute to do your holiday shopping this year. These tips will help you get started early and beat the shipping rush so you can have a stress-free holiday season and make sure all your gifts, decorations, and other necessities arrive with plenty of time to spare.
💰 Shop End of Summer Sales
US stores always have Labor Day sales at the beginning of September, and afterwards plenty of summer inventory stays on sale. While you may not be searching for flipflops and swimsuits for holiday gifts, you can still find hidden gems like beauty products, toys, and more that can be enjoyed year-round. So even if there isn’t necessarily a sale being advertised at your favorite stores, don’t forget to check the clearance section!
📝 Plan Ahead and Bulk Shop
Make a list of every person and occasion you need to shop for this holiday season, even if you don’t have specific products in mind, so you’re guaranteed not to miss anything. You can even try to buy everything all at once from the same store to save you time and money. This way, it’ll be easier to hit any minimum purchase requirements for free shipping or store specific coupons and you won’t need to worry about doing any more shopping.
🛍️ Get Ready for Black Friday
Shopping for holiday gifts on Black Friday may not be considered shopping early, but you can still get prepared before the deals arrive. Many US stores release their Black Friday ads in advance so you can get an idea of what you want to shop for and budget accordingly.
🛒 Shop Small Businesses
Big retailers get loads of orders during the holidays, which can lead to processing delays. Shopping from small businesses directly on their websites or through marketplaces like Etsy can help you avoid the chaos and provide you with unique gifts that support family and self-owned businesses.
💻 Online Shopping=More Choices
Shopping at US stores online provides you with a huge number of options to find any type of gift you could ever dream of. Plus, online shopping is easier to do because you don’t need to leave your home and spend hours hunting for the perfect present and dealing with crowds.
