It’s December 15th: Is It Too Late to Order Custom Christmas Gifts? (Not If You Order Here)
Introduction
Wake up call: Today is December 15th. If you check the shipping charts for most major retailers, today is widely considered the "Cut-Off Day" for standard ground shipping if you want your package under the tree by Christmas Eve.
If you haven’t bought your gifts yet, you might be feeling the panic setting in. You might be thinking your only options left are expensive overnight shipping fees or picking over the leftovers at the local mall.
Stop panicking. You still have one secret weapon left. Because CusPrinting manufactures right here in the USA and ships with a 2-3 day nationwide network, the door is still open.
H2: The "US Factory" Math: Why You Are Still Safe
Why can we accept orders when other "custom" sites are putting up "Too Late" banners? It’s simple geography and logistics.
-
Production: 24-48 Hours. (Because we control the factory floor).
-
Shipping: 2-3 Days. (Because we ship from the US, to the US).
-
Total Time: 4-5 Days.
Let’s look at the calendar: If you order today (Monday, Dec 15) or tomorrow (Tuesday, Dec 16): Your order will likely ship by Wednesday or Thursday. It will arrive by Saturday, Dec 20 or Monday, Dec 22.
The Result: You get your custom gifts with days to spare before Christmas (Dec 25), all without paying $50 for "Next Day Air."
H2: What to Order NOW for the Fastest Turnaround
To ensure your order flies through our factory without a hitch, here are the best products to design right now:

2. Text-Based Hoodies Keep it simple. A bold slogan, a family name, or a significant date (e.g., "EST. 2025"). Simple vector artwork processes instantly in our system.

3. In-Stock Colors Stick to the classics—Black, White, Navy, or Heather Grey. These are always in stock on our production floor and ready to print immediately.
H2: Don't Push Your Luck (The "Real" Deadline is Coming)
While we are faster than the rest, we aren't magicians. The closer we get to December 20th, the riskier it becomes due to carrier delays (UPS/FedEx/USPS get slammed next week).

-
Lowest Shipping Rates: Stick to our standard $2.50+ shipping.
-
Full Inventory: Get the sizes and colors you want before they sell out.
