Retailers are scrambling right down to the wire to help last-minute shoppers complete their gifting. Here are just a few examples:

This week Sur la table has been sending emails featuring last-minute gifts that can be purchased in-store -

I especially liked the subject line for yesterday’s mid-morning email, “Bonjour, Procrastinators! We’ve Saved the Best Deals for You.”

And today - on Christmas Eve morning - the merchant threw this buoy to both in-store and online shoppers alike -

Of course there’s always the trusty gift card, that saves wrapping time, too. I got this yesterday, December 23, from Pac Sun, whose site I shopped - abandoned a cart and then purchased from in-store - a week or so ago. The subject line was, “Forgot someone? E-gift them!” -

Listrak client Bella Luna Toys employed the same tactic with this email yesterday featuring the subject line, “There’s Still Time to Send the Perfect Gift!” -

And of course, the option to buy online and pick up in-store is the perfect solution for time-challenged gift buyers. Helzberg Diamonds sent this email this morning with the subject line, “Get it under the tree!” -
