This year is just flying by. For myself, this is usually the time that I keep myself on a lookout for good deals when it comes to Christmas presents to partially avoid all the chaos in doing last minute shopping. Usually there are a lot of deals to find too. Especially for US people I’m sure events like black Friday one could find a lot of great items to buy for presents at a cheap price.
I notice that you can usually find a lot of warehouse sales as well at this time of year mostly from companies trying to make room for more expensive inventory for the holiday shopping. Actually, I think that I am going to go check one out this week too just to see the prices and what is available. Of course, afterwards the other big sales come after Christmas.
