How to Use This
Build in production time
Personalized gifts and handmade items often need several extra days before they even ship.
Assume carrier strain
December networks slow down. A 2-day buffer is conservative, not excessive.
Use with your budget tracker
Once a gift is ordered, add it to your shopping tracker so deadlines and spending stay aligned.
