This is for procrastinators who put off Christmas shopping....
Hi:
I was doing my Christmas shopping today on Amazon and Walmart.com and was surprised to see that many things are only arriving 2 days before Christmas already. Some even after Christmas. So if you have been putting off doing your holiday shopping now is the time not next week. Last year I tried to do some shopping the last week of Christmas and was out of luck on several things I tried to buy. Happy Holidays to all! |

Putting off Christmas shopping, to me, means putting it off onto the wife. She would just make me return my choices anyway.

I guess it depends on where you're at and what you're ordering. I ordered some stuff yesterday from Amazon and it arrived today.

UPS orders mandatory overtime
UPS started mandatory overtime for drivers on Dec. 1, which is expected to last throughout the holiday season. UPS is expecting to deliver 5% more packages this December over last year's holiday season.
So UPS drivers are working 70 hours per week during the holiday now instead of the usual 60. I am a big online shopping fan. I haven't shopped for Christmas gifts at my local large mall (Woodfield Mall) in probably 10 years.

Just got an update from Amazon prime that up to a certain date it will be the norm two day ship the week before Christmas will be a one-day ship and if you are within an area of a hub two days before Christmas will be a two hour delivery.

Amazon Prime is a big plus.

I looked at my items again and the ones that are taking the longest are not stocked by Amazon.

Have very good experiences with Amazon Prime but I'm not finished. Some days I'm simply too busy to procrastinate.
