Create a list
Create a shopping list for each person that you’re buying gifts for this holiday season. By doing this, it will give you a game plan to stick to while shopping. It also keeps your stress down as well as prevents you from overspending.
Do Your Research
Research the items that you want to buy. Several stores will be offering deals on the same items. Figure out which store is offering the best deal. It also doesn’t hurt to ask for price matching.
Start your holiday shopping early
By starting your holiday shopping early, you will get the best deals. It will also ensure that you get the items on your shopping list. By shopping early, it will also reduce that holiday stress.
Shop Online
Most of my holiday shopping will be done online. Online shopping is convenient is and less stressful. Amazon is a great place to get several of your holiday items. If you have concerns about fit, find a place that offers free returns. Remember to get a gift receipt with your purchases. There are so many tools that you can use to find discounts (honey) and price dropping notifications (shoptagr).
