Amazon, Wal-Mart and Others Set Last Shipping Day on December 22 (or Later)

Monday, December 12, has been designated “Green Monday,” and many online retailers have announced some new sale pricing for the day. Coming as it does on the second Monday of December, Green Monday falls right around two weeks before Christmas Day and is close to the last day consumers can get free shipping from the online retailers.
Free Shipping Day this year is December 16. On that day, many (but not all) retailers will offer free shipping on any order without any minimum order size. The list of retailers included in this promotion has not been announced yet.
For shoppers who can’t make up their minds by December 16, retailers offer a number of other shipping options that may not be free but promise delivery in time to get that holiday gift under the Christmas tree.
The following list was provided by consumer retail website BestBlackFriday.com and is based on announced shipping deadlines from a number of retailers. Visit the retailer’s website for actual costs. Thursday, December 22, is nearly universally the last day for two-day shipping (and not free), but some retailers offer overnight or same-day delivery for even the most dedicated procrastinator.
