Websites of the week
If you haven't finished your holiday shopping yet, don't worry. There are still a million websites offering free shipping, free expedited shipping, free expedited shipping upgrades, and so on. But since there's a huge transit strike happening right now, why not use that as an excuse to take your time and finish up your holiday shopping properly? Here are five all-purpose gift websites and my favorite gifts from each, plus if you really want the gift by Christmas or Hanukkah, your expedited shipping options.
