There’s no need to wait for Black Friday ads to snag some fantastic deals on gifts for everyone on your list. In fact, you don’t even need to leave your house. Just check out these great gift ideas for adults and kids. Most of these deals are also perfect for relatives whose gifts need to be shipped, especially since many are offering free or discounted shipping.
You can find everything from monthly subscription services to premium gift boxes to high-end fitness equipment, gourmet fair trade coffee, delicious steaks and magnificent crafting kits. Best of all, these deals are available right away, with no waiting for Black Friday ads and no waiting in lines.
I don’t know about you, but I’m not willing to wait in Black Friday lines. I love a great deal even more than most people, but I draw the line at getting up early, fighting huge crowds and waiting for an hour to check out. Fortunately, there are so many phenomenal discounts available online that it’s not even necessary to go anywhere near a brick and mortar store anymore.
I’ve done almost all of my Christmas shopping online for years. Here are some of my favorite deals going on right now, and I’ll continue posting about gift ideas and deals throughout the holiday season.
