This week is the week for last-minute gift shopping. If you’re still on the hunt, you’ll probably have to rely on Amazon Prime or in-store pickup at this point — or stick to places with fast shipping like Best Buy and Target. Lucky for you, I’ve spent all of this week finding nice things on sale that would make good gifts (and will still, fingers crossed, arrive on time), and my fellow Strategist writers found even more on-sale tech gifts, toys, and gifts for teens. I’ve included several picks in today’s big list of sales for the procrastinators who love a deal.

If you’re willing to pay for expedited shipping, you can also check out END. Clothing's sale. I’ve been particularly enchanted by the treasure trove of Aesop products, home décor, and winter accessories there, and I included a few giftable favorites in today’s roundup.

As the end of the year is approaching, so are the end-of-year sales, and some have already started — and are pretty good. Glossier’s warehouse sale is not to be missed, nor is Reformation’s winter sale, which went live earlier this week. We’ll be back after Christmas to round up all the best Boxing Day sales, so stay tuned for more then.
