Not one, not two, but three round-ups of retailer deadlines for placing online orders that are guaranteed to arrive by December 24.
Dealnews put out a list, as has Coupon Sherpa and DealHack.
That latter two are the most comprehensive, each with somewhere north of 170 retailer deadlines listed—and there are separate deadlines listed for standard, express, and fastest (ludicrous speed?) shipping. But, it must be noted, some of the retailers may not exactly be high on your holiday shopping list. Coupon Sherpa’s roster includes Paintball Discounters, for instance, while DealHack has 1-800 Contacts. Let’s just say my wife would be less than pleased with gifts from either of those retailers, but to each his or her own.
Also, at last check, 531 retailers that have agreed to participate in Free Shipping Day. So the big day, December 17, when some form of free shipping will be available from all of those stores, should be a huge day for online sales. Just a few weeks back, when I spoke to Luke Knowles, Free Shipping Day’s founder, only 322 stores had signed on.
