If you are like me, you still haven’t bought all of your Christmas presents. And you are wondering: do I still have time to buy gifts online? or do I still have time to buy Lululemon online? The answer is YES for the most part. But I have a few steps you should follows. You have only a few days left to make those last minute purchases online if you want it to arrive before Christmas. I recommend eBay for those last minute gift ideas whether they are Lululemon gifts or not. The reason for this is you can ask the eBay seller questions regarding their shipping time and can ask them for express shipping so that you will have it in time for Christmas. As this is one of the busiest times of the year for eBay sellers trying to make a few extra sales before the holidays begin, they will often answer your questions with in a few hours.

So if you are like me and are going to order a few more gifts online in the next day or two here are the steps to follow:
1) See if the seller’s website states if they are still shipping product to arrive before Christmas.

2) If nothing states that they expect their shipments to arrive before Christmas, send them a message asking if it will arrive before Christmas. Also ask if they have express shipping options so it will arrive on time. Also make sure to be extra nice. Here is a template that you can use:

Dear Seller,

I was thinking about purchasing the [Enter Product Name Here] from you. However, I am planning on giving it as a Christmas gift. If I order it today will I expect it to arrive before Christmas using your standard shipping? If not, do you have any express shipping options? If so what is the extra cost? I would really like to purchase this gift from you, so please let me know if there is anyway that I can buy this gift from you so that it arrives before Christmas. I would really appreciate this.

Thanks in advance,
[You name here]

3) Now, don’t just play the waiting game, find some other options. I would then contact 3 to 5 more sellers with the same or similar items, just in case the previous seller you contacted cannot ship in time or is slow to answer you email.

4) If you haven’t bought from eBay in awhile, log into you PayPal account and make sure everything is up-to-date so there will not be any delay in your payment.

So there you have it, yes there still is time to do your Christmas shopping online, just make sure you follows the steps above.
