Christmas Wishlist: The Ultimate Guide to Festive Shopping!

Its December, which means that you don’t have much time left before the big day to get your shopping completed! Christmas Day will take place on Saturday 25th December 2021 this year, which leaves you a little under four weeks to find everything you desire! Are you ready?! We have prepared the following useful hints and tips to help you navigate the festive shopping period and ensure that you get everything you need!

Make Christmas Stress Free!

It is important to try and limit the stress of Christmas this year. These past few months have shown us the importance of prioritising our mental health and navigating through the trials of Christmas shopping should be no exception! Take care to include detailed lists in your plan this year so that you know what exactly you need to buy, who for, and more importantly how much you have to spend!

Why not take advantage of our Christmas Shopping Planner to help you manage your lists and budget this year! Let us take some of the stress off your shoulders during this festive period.

Research products ahead of time!

We always advise customers to research products before they buy them, taking care to read customer reviews to get a clear idea of an item’s suitability. Just because customers find cheaper products than other competitors, this does not mean they should buy it straight away. 

Make sure to check the price history of any products of interest; there are useful tools like CamelCamelCamel or PriceRunner that consumers can use to determine how much a product has actually been sold for in the past so they can decide whether the discounted price actually represents real value.

These kinds of tools will also show you alternative stores where items can be purchased – this can mean that, should it sell out in one location, you will have a list of several others to choose from to ensure you don’t miss out!

Discounts and Promotions

You will ALWAYS find deals and promotions available during the Christmas period! But why not make it easier to find them this year? Using sites like Honey can give you access to a database of usable promo codes that can save you lots of money! We would also advise that you get SOCIAL! The social media accounts of your favourite retailers are the best platform to find out about secret sales, early access promotions and exclusive deals and discounts on a range of products. Also, by signing up to a stores newsletter or mailing list you may receive alerts and promotions ahead of other customers, giving you exclusive access to some of the hottest intel. 

Last month, to combat the very real issues faced by all of us, EshopWedrop decided to do something a little different for Black Friday! Existing customers were given an infusion of reward drops with a value of 100 GBP to assist in the delivery of their orders! We are hoping this will allow everyone to make the very most of the festive shopping period this year! If you still have drops left, now is an excellent time to make use of them!
