Kim Brown+FollowKohl’s Holiday Hours Hack: Shop Smarter!Heads up, last-minute shoppers! Kohl’s is giving you extra time to snag those gifts before Christmas, with stores open late and even until 7 p.m. on Christmas Eve. But just like T.J. Maxx, Target, and Walmart, Kohl’s will be totally closed on Christmas Day. So, plan your gift runs early or order online for in-store pickup—because CVS and 7-Eleven might be your only options if you forget someone! #Business #LocalBusiness #HolidayShopping00Share

Brandon Long+FollowAI Shopping: Is It Ruining the Fun?Holiday shopping just got a high-tech twist, but not everyone’s loving it. Some shoppers are letting AI chatbots pick out gifts, but the results? Meh. One founder said it made shopping feel like a boring chore, and the AI kept suggesting the same turtlenecks (yikes). Plus, there are some shady experiments and price changes happening behind the scenes. Maybe vintage and thrift finds are the way to keep the holiday magic alive! #Shopping #AIshopping #HolidayShopping00Share
