Today heralds the Official Start of Online Holiday Shopping Day. Evidently, lots of folks at work hop online to shop for gifts. Companies must have a very lenient policy – how nice!

Here are some other tips:
• Von’s, a subsidiary of Safeway, offers delivery now in the US. Another plus – Von’s usually has a very nice selection of organic produce that’s actually very tasty and priced quite reasonably. (You might consider the health benefits and savings – organic may be an incredible bargain.)
• Shop Local. Not only can you enjoy delicious produce and meat, but also save considerably in the pocket book as well. Eatwellguide.org provides a great search link to find out what’s in your area in the US.
