December 17th is “Free Shipping Day”. Over 1,000 merchants have already signed up for this event, with an expected total of around 2,500-3000 merchants participating. In addition to providing free shipping, the gifts are guaranteed to arrive by Christmas.Most of the major retailers are already on board including Nordstrom, Barnes and Noble and Best Buy. Also, there are also hundreds and hundreds of small businesses that are looking forward to the free shipping day to gain exposure for their business.
In addition to getting free shipping, many merchants are going to be offering smokin’ deals on the hottest items this season in order to compete with other merchants and to add an extra incentive to buy their product in addition to the free shipping.
So far, at least 83% of all the merchants are going to be offering free shipping on the entire order, not just select items. This leaves the opportunity wide open for huge savings (in the hundreds of dollars) on heavy items!
