They have them, they have them out or if you have a party shop nearby, just try to grab a couple fun festive hats if you are able to have enough time to do that. And then utilize like whatever you have in your home. If you have maybe just some nice platters, run to the store, get something you can just pop in the oven really quick. You can even get some of those frozen, a lot of places in the grocery stores have those frozen like appetizer meals that you can get, do that or even just order out, order some pizza, order maybe from like a fast food chain, call out, order out, go pick it up, get some wings, that sort of thing. Have everyone bring a dish or bring some beer or wine, but do make sure that you have champagne on hand. If you don't have your champagne glasses you can pick them up even from again at New Year's Eve time you can pick them up from the grocery store, the little plastic ones or if you don't have you know champagne glasses at all that's okay too since it's a last minute party.
