The holidays are coming and that means deals. It also means that retailers are willing to give you better shipping deals. Shortly after Walmart announced that it’s expanding its free shipping program to cover items from third-party merchants, now Target hits back with plans to win you over this holiday season.
The retailer is removing the $35 minimum amount required for its free two-day shipping offer from November 1st to December 22nd. Target will allow you to purchase items from its website without having to pay extra, no matter how small it is. Now that’s a sweet deal.
Target is hoping you will choose its website instead of Amazon or Walmart for your holiday shopping needs. So if you forgot to buy a gift and don’t want to spend over $35 the company is hoping you’ll go to Target.com to purchase a small item, since you won’t need to add extra items just to get that the free shipping perk.
Target is also expanding its “Drive Up” service to cater to more people. It will be available at nearly 1,000 stores very soon. This way you can place your orders online and have them delivered to your car. Target wants your business more than ever.
