On Sunday, December 2, Hanukkah begins - this means that gifts for friends and family celebrating this holiday must already be at the American post office to be delivered for the holiday, writes Consumer Reports. But also those who are going to congratulate their loved ones on Christmas and New Year, it’s worth it to hurry.

You shouldn't be under the illusion that December is still a long time before 25! Most of the big sellers and carriers are overloaded this season, so in order to avoid awkward moments with late delivery of gifts, order in the coming days. Pay attention to what time frame the FedEx, UPS, and US Postal Service promise to deliver.

And do not forget about the Free Shipping Day (Free Shipping Day). Hundreds of online merchants will take part in this tremendous December 14 promotion, offering a huge amount of gifts that can be received by Christmas.
