BBB reminds to take precautions when holiday shopping this season

 

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Many of us are still in the thick of our holiday shopping, but before you wrap that last gift, the BBB has some reminders as the year ends. 

"We know that about 58% plan to shop online for the holidays, which is a really high number. People are planning on spending an average of almost 900 dollars," said Lisa Schiller with the Wisconsin Better Business Bureau. 

She said over the next two weeks, online shopping will be booming and while you may be in the holiday spirit, it's important to take precautions to protect your money.
