It's already that time of year to start thinking about your holiday shopping!

In 2023, inflation continues to impact Canadians, causing many to shop less or plan their holiday shopping early. Luckily, a number of retailers have introduced Black Friday and holiday pricing as early as November 1, giving everyone more time to shop and budget.
