“You procrastinated and you can’t be as picky as you could maybe you know a month before the holidays there’s still going to be some really good options,” Kirstin McGrath, a RetailMeNot editor said.
She also suggested taking advantage of the deals and buying some gift cards for yourself if you can fit them in your budget.
To find the best deals while last-minute shopping, be sure to look for anything with Holiday packaging, Toys and even snag the curbside pickup discounts.

“Some stores right at the last minute are trying to compete with each other. So they’ll offer a pickup discount, so you might get 10% off, by utilizing pickup, and that’s another really good way to save if you’re a procrastinator,” McGrath said.
You might still find deals on electronics, but some of the more popular items may be out of stock.
