Last-Minute Shoppers Save on Shipping

Today is the unofficial web shopping holiday known as Free Shipping Day, when online retailers aim to lure last-minute shoppers out of the stores and onto their sites. It's also considered the last day to order online before gifts are in danger of missing delivery by Christmas Eve.

If you've been waiting to get a gift that you can't find locally and hesitating because of the shipping cost, today may be the best day to do it. Everything from beauty items to bikes to clothes, jewelry and toys is available.

You can find all of the 717 retailers participating in Free Shipping Day at freeshippingday.com.
