Boxing Day 2014: The ultimate shopping guide to the best deals and discounts in-store and online
Boxing Day. Oh, how we love and loathe thee. It may be the most wonderful time of the year for shopaholics all around, but it definitely comes at the price of sanity. But have no fear. With a thought out shopping plan (see below) and battle gear (ie. running shoes, water bottle, cross body bag, etc.), your mission will be a breeze comes December 26th. Of course for those who much rather stay home in their PJs and avoid the Boxing Day craze altogether, we’ve found plenty of online deals as well.
