Take your holiday shopping over the line

Dec 3, 2024

Take your holiday shopping over the line

Black Friday and Cyber Monday have come and gone, but you may still have gifts to buy… here’s what to do next. Nearly 60% of Canadians finish their shopping on or after Black Friday, meaning that for many of us, holiday shopping can stretch well into December. It might be because Canadians are known to take more time to research and compare brands, but let’s be honest — if you’re anything like this writer, it’s mostly procrastination. If you didn’t cross everything off your list last week, start by setting a budget and making a list of the people you still need to shop for. This will help you stay focused and avoid overspending. Then, pick an item for each person and use sites like Honey or Rakuten to find the best deals and cashback offers. And don’t stop hunting for deals as many stores run holiday sales all month long. Lastly, hit that checkout button now — with the Canada Post strike and heaps of holiday orders, it's better to order early than risk your gifts arriving after Santa does.
