Check Those Shipping Deadlines!
Are you keeping an eye on the calendar? While there are technically still 9 days left before Christmas, shipping deadlines for online retailers are creeping up quickly. So if you’ve got great Christmas gifts picked out for the whole family, quit procrastinating and order them before it’s too late to take advantage of shipping deals from the top online retailers. Gifting sites like Zazzle and Overstock offer free or ultra-low cost shipping rates, as long as you order in time. Otherwise, you’ll have to splurge on express, 2 day, or overnight options, which can get pricey. Here are some important dates to remember, but make sure to check with each retailer individually before ordering.
December 16th is standard, but some sites like Best Buy and Target will honor standard shipping rates for orders coming in as late as December 20th. Express shipping can cover most orders made by December 21st, where as you’ll have to spring for overnight if you order online before 10am on Dec 23rd. But even if it’s Christmas eve and you still haven’t bought a single gift, never fear. Just check out Gifts.com for tons of unique gift ideas that offer same-day gift delivery.
