Christmasis on Monday, so if you’ve yet to cross everyone off your shopping list, you’re just about out of time to get yourlast-minute holiday gifts. There’s still a teeny bit of time left to get a deal — and no one will need to know that you didn’t pay full price. Here, I’ve found dozens of actually thoughtful gift ideas, many of which we’ve written about before on the Strategist, that are sure to delight even the most hard-to-shop-for family and friends.
If you finish your shopping today, youshouldbe able to get your gifts by Sunday, December 24. Amazon and Shopbop are your best bet to get gifts on time. Prime members still get free two-day shipping, so most things will arrive before the weekend, depending on your zip code. At places like Nordstrom and REI, we’re deep into expedited shipping territory — although some products are eligible for free in-store pickup within a day or two. (And when you’re getting a discount, that extra fee stings a little less.) This isn’t the time to dillydally, as stock and availability is constantly changing, so read on to shop.
