Even if you’re a major Christmas shopping procrastinator, there’s still hope to get a few of those holiday gifts under the tree or in the stocking by Friday. A few online retailers’ shipping deadlines have already passed as of this afternoon, but a limited handful of others are still available.
For example, Amazon.com’s Christmas ordering cut-off for many items doesn’t end until December 23 at 4:30 pm (PST). Now that’s really cutting it close! Items on the site that are marked “ships from and sold by Amazon.com” or “fulfilled by Amazon.com” can still be ordered before the deadline to ensure its arrival by Christmas Eve.
For handbag lovers on your shopping list, you might consider the affordable but trendy, croc-embossed Jessica Simpson Sasha Tote or the Big Buddha Union Tote. Designer divas would love the Moschino Cheap & Chic Wish Bag, if your Christmas budget can handle the price.
Also in the running for last minute shopping is Endless.com. If shipping to one of the contiguous 48 states, you’ve got until 5:00 pm (PST) on December 23 to order items that are marked “free overnight shipping.”
Portero.com has a promotion running until 11:59 pm (ET) tonight to get free overnight shipping on orders over $1,000 from their “Now or Never – Last Minute Gifts” section. That might seem like a steep minimum to meet, but it’s not at all hard when you’re shopping Chanel and Hermes handbags.
