Clearly shopping “click” instead of “brick” has taken over this year. Online shopping went through the roof from Thanksgiving through Cyber week, and it looks like only holiday shipping deadlines will slow things down.
Naturally, consumers can always depend on Free Shipping Day, the one-day event on Dec. 16 when they can shop from more than 2,000 merchants with delivery by Christmas Eve. Other stores offer extended deadlines, however. FreeShipping.org put together a comprehensive list of 170 merchant holiday deadlines, including dates for standard and express shipping as well as the date offering the fastest shipping with delivery by Christmas.
