Just a quick warning: if you haven’t ordered your holiday gifts and plan to shop online, you’ll need to do it today or tomorrow. Tomorrow is pushing it, especially if you’re doing the ‘cheapo’ regular shipping method. Most retailers offer 2 day, but it’ll cost you and there’s never a guarantee. You’ve been warned.
