In my house I often here my kids and husband say who has the box when they are ready to wrap a gift! It just makes life easier!
Storage Containers Do not wait until after Christmas to buy the containers you need to store holiday items. The shelves will be empty and all your holiday items will remain in the guest room or garage floor taking up space. Keep the receipt and return what you don’t use. You will be glad you labeled those containers when next year rolls around.
