STORES OFFERING FREE SHIPPING WITH A MINIMUM PURCHASE
Really quick, one thing to note! All of the shipping deals we're about to share apply to the contiguous U.S. only. So, if you live in Alaska or Hawaii, you may want to double-check with each retailer. Rules vary!
Here are a dozen stores that offer free shipping with a minimum purchase:
- Target – Spend $35+ to get your order shipped for free.
- Bath & Body Works – If you spend more than $50, you don't have to pay for shipping.
- Carter's – Stocking up on jammies for your little cutie? Spend $35 or more, and Carter's will cover shipping costs.

BONUS TIP: MARK YOUR CALENDAR
Every year, dozens of stores participate in a one-day free shipping promotion. It's usually just before Christmas. In 2020, it's on December 14, and most participating businesses are also guaranteeing delivery by Christmas Eve. Procrastinators, rejoice!
Barnes & Noble, PetSmart, Children's Place, Macy's, Bed Bath & Beyond, Walmart, and Target are just a FEW of the stores participating this year. Check your favorite store's website or social media profiles, or call them to find out if they'll offer free shipping, too. It never hurts to ask, does it?
