How to Shop for Your SO This Christmas
Not everyone feels the Christmas spirit come December.
While many shoppers love to embrace the pre-emptive cheer of big-box stores selling Santa merch in September, others (such as yourself, perhaps) recede into Scrooge-like states, grumpily waiting for January to arrive. But this year, something's different: you got yourself a significant other that you would do anything for—even if that means clawing through the zombie hordes of holiday shoppers just to get your bae that infinity scarf she’s been wanting.
So, without further ado, here’s your go-to guide to surviving shopping for your beloved SO for those dating during the holidays. Ah, what you wouldn’t do for love.
Make Like Santa and Make a List
If you want to come out of stores during the holidays unscathed, it’s best you make a list and stick with it. Make a budget for yourself and try not to stray away from it—because those BOGO women’s skincare products can really add up when you’ve piled ten of them in your cart.
You don’t want to be stuck walking aimlessly in a huge store full of anxious Christmas shoppers—make sure you know exactly which aisles you need to go to and what you’re looking for. In and out, baby!
Better yet, try curbside pickup out and save yourself all the stress of the aisles.
