No stress holiday shopping tips The holidays can be just as stressful as they are enjoyable. The malls, the people, the lines. How do you get around them while keeping your stress levels down? Here are a few ways to help you avoid the lines, get your gifts and stay sane. Make a list and check it twice Before you leave the house, make sure your shopping list is ready so you know where you have to go. This will help you avoid wandering the aisles aimlessly. Don't be a last-minute shopper To escape having to rush around to find the one store that hasn't already sold out of what you need, start you shopping as early as possible. This way, your biggest challenge will be finding a good hiding spot. Set a budget To avoid overspending and maxing out the credit card, give yourself a budget that works for you. But remember, it only works if you stick to it. Holiday Hours Many retailers offer extended hours to maximize on shopping. Know what the hours are and try going in off-peak, so you can get in and get out with no stress. Shop Online There's no better way to avoid lineups than to go where there are no lineups. Online retailers like Futureshop.ca make it easy to shop-- and the best part is it's always open. --www.newscanada.com ! g a J g a W e DoTh 7 Holiday Gift Guide, Tuesday, December 7, 2010 { WAGJAG (w-a-g·j-a-g)1 - (noun): an incredible deal available only if a group indulges together in a collective spree. 2 - (verb): the act of buying a wagjag with unrestrained excitement or rapidly and repeatedly sharing wagjags with uninhibited exuberance.
