You better watch out. Online shopping deadlines are near.
Free shipping deadlines are upon us. Since October, retailers have been trying to lure shoppers online to spend for the holidays.
Free shipping has been a popular draw. But time is almost up.
Barnes & Noble recently warned consumers that Dec. 18, which is less than a week away, is the last day to order books and other products online and receive free shipping. Dec. 18 also is the final date to get shipping for free at Target.
And other retailers say that time is fast approaching to order and receive items by Dec. 25. If you're ordering an item from Belk, the department store chain says that Dec. 14 by midnight is the latest for guaranteed Christmas delivery.
Okay, my ears must have been burning. I ordered everything today as I felt that deadline creeping closer and closer!
