Christmas is coming soon, and if you’re a little behind on any gift shopping, December 22nd (today) is the last day that anything ordered with Amazon Prime’s free two-day shipping will be guaranteed to arrive by end of day on December 24th.
So whether you’re still scrambling for a last-minute present, need some holiday supplies, or just really would like to avoid the general chaos of the malls this week, today’s your final chance to get things on time with free shipping from Amazon. (If you’d really like to wait until the last minute, December 23rd is the last day for Amazon’s one-day delivery, but keep in mind that’ll cost extra.)
For those who need help getting started with a last-minute present idea, we’ve put together a few suggestions of the best Prime-eligible gifts below. And of course, if you’re looking for more ideas, The Verge Holiday Gift Guide is always a great place to browse.
