The team at “Delish” is giving us a guide to the best and worst times to shop ahead of the holidays.
For Christmas:
The busiest shopping days - The busiest shopping days of the holiday season will most likely be:
- Black Friday (November 29th)
- the Sunday before Christmas (December 22nd) and
- the Monday before Christmas (December 23rd)
- Saturday, December 14th and Saturday, November 30th are also expected to be big days.
The best time to shop for Christmas - If you’re looking for the quietest time to hit stores, Google Maps shows Mondays around 3 p.m. tend to be less busy in general. Make things easier on yourself during the holidays by checking Google Maps to see how busy retail shops and grocery stores are in real time before you head out.
