Hate crowds? These are the best days to go holiday shopping

WASHINGTON – There are 18 days until Christmas and you haven’t bought a single gift for anyone on the list.

If you’re planning to do all your shopping in one fell swoop, you might be better off going on one of these days that Kiplinger says are the best for crowd-free holiday shopping.

Kiplnger reporter Cameron Huddleston cites ShopperTrak Founder and Executive Vice President Bill Martin as saying the Saturday before Christmas is the busiest day to go shopping.

If you’re looking to avoid the crowds and still get the deals, Kiplinger recommends the following 10 days, some of which have already passed:

  1. Wednesday, Dec. 4
  2. Tuesday, Dec. 3
  3. Monday, Dec. 2
  4. Wednesday, Dec 11
  5. Monday, Dec. 9
  6. Tuesday, Dec. 10
  7. Friday, Dec. 6
  8. Friday, Dec. 13
  9. Thursday, Dec. 12
  10. Monday, Dec. 16
