15. Stock Up the Day After Christmas
Did a string of tree lights burn out this year? Don't wait until next season to replace them — we guarantee you'll be halfway through trimming your Fraser Fir before you realize you need to make an emergency run to get new ones. Most stores have great day-after-Christmas sales, so it's the best time to grab other essentials like holiday wrapping paper and a new stocking if, say, a baby is on the way.
16. Store Smarter
You can organize boxes by room (one for the foyer, one for the living room) or by type of object (all wreaths together), but we wholeheartedly recommend clear bins so that you can easily see what's inside. Also, there's no such thing as having too many labels, especially with your box of ornaments. If you have specific ornaments that need to go in specific containers, write it on there. Trust us, you think you'll remember where they all go, but you won't.
