Procrastinate much? Mark your calendar for Free Shipping Day on Dec. 14, 2022, if you find yourself scrambling to get gifts delivered by Christmas Eve. In 2022, retailers like Walgreens and Bath and Body Works are offering free shipping early on December 12 to get ahead (no minimum!).
Free Shipping Day is kind of like the last hurrah for retailers offering free shipping promotions during the holiday shopping season. National Free Shipping Day started in 2008 and has brought hundreds of retailers together to offer no-cost delivery to shoppers, many with guaranteed delivery by Christmas Eve. Sadly, the website FreeShippingDay.com is no longer. The website creators shut it down in 2018 after a decade of helping shoppers get their last-minute holiday items — noting on the way out that they were “ready to settle in for a long winter’s nap.”
The good news is we expect plenty of retailers to continue offering a day of free shipping, despite the website going away.

3. Retailers who are participating in Free Shipping Day 2022.

This year, Free Shipping Day will happen on Wednesday, Dec. 14, 2022. With most stores offering free everyday shipping or free shipping with memberhip to their free rewards programs. We did find Ann Taylor, Loft (use code COZY), and Forever 21 (use code FREESHIP) will offer free shipping on Dec. 14, 2022.
4. Watch out for retailers that say they’re participating in Free Shipping Day but don’t actually offer free shipping.

Yes, this is actually a thing.
Some retailers and brands are piggybacking on the marketing benefits of “Free Shipping Day,” but you still have to pay a minimum amount to reach the Free Shipping threshold when you buy from them.
For example, Kohl’s only offered free shipping on orders over $49+. In order to find out whether a retailer’s “Free Shipping” is actually free, always read the terms and conditions to see if there’s a minimum spend requirement. Here’s a coupl of retailers that lowered their spend threshold for free shipping day 2022:
- Charlotte Russe for orders over $25, normally $100 min
- J.Crew on orders $25+ (usually $99)
5. Save the most money at the last minute by shopping clearance online in addition to sales.

Really squeeze the most value out of Free Shipping Day by getting clearance items shipped for free.
Look for markdowns of 50% – 70% off regular prices or items you can’t buy in stores.
