Christmas shipping deadlines for 2010 are here! It’s probably time to start making our Christmas lists, because before you know it the holidays will be just days away.
I’m a procrastinator; it’s not a secret. However, I do like to make sure that our holiday cards and packages arrive by Christmas. With Christmas on a Saturday this year, we’ll probably have one less day to get our packages there on time.
