GIVEN high baggage fees and your propensity to shop last minute, transporting presents for far-flung family is no easy task. Enter Roadie. This self-described “on-the way delivery network’’ helps you connect with local folks car tripping in all sorts of directions, offering delivery options for just about anything. Create a “gig’’ and Roadie will match you with someone headed that way. Drivers pick up and deliver at your designated doorsteps. No packing peanuts required.
