The feeling that a child or let’s face it, ANYONE gets as they’re opening their presents bright and early Christmas morning is indescribable!
It’s also not just about the presents though, it’s a time to spend the most precious moments with friends and family that you may never get back. For me, it’s one of the holiday’s that I look forward to the most because I know that mostly all of my family will be together some traveling as far as California but that’s what family truly means, getting together for the holidays and enjoying each other’s company.
But, like many, there are some people that still need to find those presents for that special someone or loved one. Those people who haven’t started or still need to go shopping are in the majority. The International Council of Shopping Centers concluded that about 76% of adult shoppers make their purchases for the holidays right up until Christmas day.
Those same people may have the right idea in waiting until the last minute to get their shopping done then, considering all the great sales that many of the major department stores such as, Macy’s, J.C. Penny, Boscov’s, etc.
Although, don’t despair, because everything happens for a reason. Even if you didn’t get that really cute highlight palette or the drone that everyone wants “just to fly around the neighborhood” when in fact you just want to see what your neighbors are up to!
