Best Times to Shop this Season by Store

Posted On: 12/05/2016

For whatever reason, this is the first year when Christmas shopping has seemed sincerely daunting to me. I've only purchased items for about five people on my long, long list so far and soon I'll need to go out and continue on my path. If I'm smart, stay current with travel news, and share my findings, my friends (you) and I may be able to keep in the Christmas spirit without hating all the other crowds of people who are just as grumpy to be out shopping!

THE FACTS

The great minds at Foursquare have used their algorithms, last year's traffic, and US census information to calculate when each type of store will be busiest this holiday season so you know when to avoid them! Foursquare is a website that combines the great elements of Yelp and Zaggat together, helps customers find the top rated food, coffee, shopping, bars, and entertainment anywhere in the world. Locations and events are rated by the regular people who use the site and are then tallied together to get a rating out of ten. The ratings are then put in chronological order so you can see where the number one favorite places are! The number one rated place on Foursquare for food in Laconia is Local Eatery!
