Last-minute shoppers have always lived on the knife’s edge, but if you’ve been holding off this year, you’re a special breed of thrill seeker. With supply-chain issues, a microprocessor chip shortage, and a dearth of retail employees, finding the perfect gift might be a bigger challenge than usual.
While in years past, Christmas Eve shopping has been a crowded affair, it’s hard to predict what 2021 will be like. Unfortunately, it’s also really hard to predict if your go-to store will be open, as most retailers have irregular hours.
If you’re one of the brave not-so-few looking to go gift shopping up until the very last second, we won’t judge. In fact, we might even be able to help. Coins2Day has an extensive collection of gift guides to help you if you’re stuck—and we can tell you when stores will be closing. Keep in mind, though, that some locations will have different hours than their parent company, and it’s always wise to call to confirm.
