Champagne
Add sparkle to Christmas and New Year get-togethers with a bottle of champagne.
Champagne makes any Christmas or New Year’s Eve dinner more festive, that is why a lot of people buy a bottle or two in December. You can stock up on champagne as retail stores tend to lower their prices as demand increases during this season.
Seasonal Meats
Ham and other cured meats are a staple during this season.
Seasonal meats such as ham and other cured meats are Christmas favorites and are very popular during December. Retails stores offer seasonal meats that come in different sizes and variants and they usually offer these at lower prices right after a holiday.

After all the reunions and gatherings, shopping for Christmas décor is actually a good idea.
