If you still have Christmas cards or gifts to mail that you want delivered by December 25, the US Postal Service has suggested dates to mail items to ensure delivery by the 25th. The suggested dates are December 15 for Parcel Post, December 20 for First Class Mail, December 21 for Priority Mail and December 22 for Express Mail.
UPS and Federal Express have holiday schedules on their websites.
Also, if you are still planning on ordering items online, it is important to check the retailer website to see what their suggested order by date is to receive it on time. If you are ordering personalized or photo gifts yet, I have seen on some sites that December 14 is the final date to order to get the items by Christmas.
