Santa makes it look so easy.
The holidays have arrived and so has the busy shopping season.
It can help to make a list of gift ideas for those youre shopping for throughout the year.
Do your gift shopping from the point of view of the recipient and youll never go wrong.
Going Overboard
Theres nothing worse than that sinking feeling of having overdone it.
Instead, try shortening the list of recipients youll be shopping for.
On the other hand, shopping too early can lead to over-buying with the increased shopping window.
Settle on an appropriate time to get started on your holiday shopping list and also set a deadline.
Hold on to yourtinselbecause were going to urge against this gift-giving mistake.
Instead, simply focus on making it special.
The best way to do it is to work back from the shipping date.
For Priority, plan to ship by the next day, Thursday, December 19.
Express shipping allows a few more days with that deadline hitting Saturday, December 21.
