So, we are a little over a week into December, which means we can legally start talking about Christmas, right? The big day will be here before you know it, so it really does pay to be organized. While it would be great if we could just leave all the gift buying to the man in red, the reality is, we need to be on the ball to ensure our presents arrive on time. Music retail giant Sweetwater has just announced that 5pm on December 15 is the recommended date and time by which you should order in-stock products to ensure they arrive in time for Christmas - and better yet, orders made before this time will benefit from their free Christmas delivery!
On the Sweetwater site, it states: "Order your in-stock products before 5 PM on December 15th with Sweetwater's fast, free shipping to allow more travel time for those precious parcels to arrive before Christmas."
