Christmas is my favorite time of the year. And it’s just 39 days away. Are you ready?

• Catalog Choice – Save the environment, save money not impulse shopping, and save having to carry a stack of mail in every day. Opt out of mailings for thousands of different catalogs in one place.
• Amazon Prime – I haven’t needed a mall for Christmas shopping in years. $20 apiece for four people to get a year of two-day shipping. Seriously one of the greatest miracles the Internet has to offer.
• Amazon Universal Wish List – Especially now that you can add anything anywhere to your list.
• Etsy – It’s like the coolest boutique in the world, but bigger. Cooler. And all handmade.
• Black Friday Ads – If you’re a better shopper than me, you’ll find these useful.
