1. Select a primary location.  

Seek out a shopping center with an expansive selection of stores under one roof. The more gifts you can cross off your list during one trip, the better. 

2. Check holiday shopping hours before you go.  

Special store hours during the Thanksgiving and holiday shopping season can help you get in and out more quickly and conveniently. Many locations also offer special events, such as the chance to meet Santa. 

3. Keep an eye out for shopping incentives.  

Retailers are especially generous with discounts and incentives during this time of year, often offering double points, additional savings and giveaways. 

4. Take advantage of technology.  

We’ve all experienced the frustration of losing our car in a crowded lot or wandering around a mall trying to locate a store. If the mall or shopping center has a mobile app, download it—you’ll be able to make a parking plan and review a map of the retailers ahead of time.
