Gifts That Will Deliver On Time: Last Minute Shopping Guide
December 10, 2021

Another year has rolled around, and another final few weeks of panic has set in. One of these year’s I’m actually going to stick to my goal of having my holiday shopping done by the beginning of December. But guess what? This year is not that year. I officially have LESS than two weeks to get all of my online shopping done [thanks a lot, shipping deadlines] and spoiler alert- the list of who needs to be bought for is longer than the list of who’s done. Next year: more shopping, less eating cheese.
Thankfully the good people at several stores are still setup to get you [and me] our gifts in time if we order quick! With so many shipping delays expected this year, deadlines to order your gifts are earlier than ever! We’ve rounded up a list of those stores and made lists of some of our favorite items that are still available for gifting! Grab that hot cocoa, slip into something comfy, and let’s get to last minute shopping together!

When not in front of her computer screen [with a La Croix or wine in hand] or in front of a mirror taking mirror selfies, you can find Erin spending time on the water, cuddled up with her two pups and husband most likely watching the latest Shark Tank episode, or getting lost in an easy beach read.

While the CDC may be recommending social distancing [thanks, Coronavirus], the calendar isn’t paying attention, and holidays aren’t changing their dates! I’m talking Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, and Graduations. Whether we’re going to be celebrating them in person or taking advantage of technology to see one another, it’s still a time to celebrate those we […]
