Expressly Yours

If you want to lessen your environmental impact this time of year (and we know you do), consider sending your gifts straight to your recipient when ordering online. By doing so, you’ll eliminate a step (the one from the seller to you) and save fuel and other natural resources. Sure, that cardboard box isn’t quite as adorable as Santa wrapping paper, and you won’t get to showcase your gift-wrapping skills, but you will be saving some paper. With so many presents coming and going during the holiday season, every one you keep from having to be shipped twice counts.
