There is a wallet that I would like, but not paying $12 for shipping.

Re: Free Shipping

[ Edited ]

I really like this wreath H498116 and I've had two of them in my saved list for a while now. I've been waiting for another free shipping day because I did serious damage on the last two. 

I started seeing it on QVC's TikTok and I bought two of them last night. They had a coupon for 25% off and free shipping. Plus, I earned TikTok credits so I think I got it an additional $.76 off.

 

I also with others the title was a little misleading.

i think we all like free shipping, but $3.50 surely is not going to deter me from buying something.  Actually I find $3.50 shipping reasonable compared to the few other sites where I shop.  JJill is $9.95 and my online yarn shop is also $9.95.

I like free shipping but if an item is reduced substantially, $3.50 is no big deal. Kohl's charge $8.95 for shipping if you don't reach their minimum.

I finally go it through my big, fat, thick head that shopping at QVC for fashion is not advantageous to my budget considering I return 80% of what I order.  That adds up to big bucks as I'm paying for shipping one way and returns another.  The clothing is already overpriced and with tax and shipping it's ridiculous.  I do much better with other online retailers who don't gouge their customers.

I have to pay sales tax on shipping charges, too. Another reason to shop when it's free shipping.

Knowing QVC charges for shipping, I think $3.50 is still a fair price.  
Having said that, I never let the shipping cost deter me from buying something I like.  

I look for things to buy on free shipping days, but buy what I like when I see it.  If I waited for free shipping, my size would be sold out

The shipping at qvc is so inexpensive ( I buy mostly clothing) that i consider it a negligible expense.  I sure dont want to chance something I want being sold out for a pitiful $3.50.

@Linda0215  -  If you're returning 80% of what you order, I'm surprised you haven't received "The Letter" from the Q.

 

The Q is not for everyone and I agree with you, that it's best to move on.

@Maizie Green  -  It pays to check Tik Tok!  Good for you for getting the 25% off and free shipping.  Smiley Happy
