Ever wondered if people enjoy getting their Christmas shopping done nice and early or are more of late bloomers in that sense? We digged deep into Taxify’s analytics and made a cheat sheet for you to know when and where should you be driving these holidays to earn the most.

As it turns out, many of us prefer to go for holiday shopping two to three days before Christmas Eve, with December 21 and 22 being the most popular days to hail a ride to a mall. Still, the gift rally actually starts almost a week earlier, so you can be ready for driving Santa’s helpers from and to malls already on the 18th.

Of course, there are those brave ones who don’t step their foot into shopping realms before December 23. But it seems that on the morning of 24th everyone is busy (un)wrapping and spending time with their loved ones. We suggest you do it too.

The most popular shopping destinations in Cape Town during Christmas period last year were:

V&A Waterfront
Canal Walk Shopping Centre
Bayside Mall
Cavendish Square
N1 City Mall
Access Park Outlet Shopping
Kenilworth Centre
Ashwood Centre
Blue Route Mall
Gardens Shopping Centre
Sandown Retail Crossing

Be smart: when and where to drive during Christmas?
