Take the pain out of online shopping with FreeShipping.org

As gas prices rise, the appeal of online shopping grows. There's no driving to the mall, no driving from one store to another to compare prices -- all it takes is a computer, a credit card, and a few clicks of the mouse. There's just one drawback -- the shipping costs.

Think about it -- how often have you found a great deal (or just a great item) online, and gone through the checkout only to find that you're being charged $10 or so for shipping? For that amount, you could drive to the local branch of a store and buy it in person. So what's a savvy shopper to do?

Check out FreeShipping.org, of course! You can shop by brand or category through over 800 name-brand stores to find free shipping coupons. That means you can get free shipping from JCPenney, Macy's, Target, Nordstrom, Bloomingdale's, Best Buy, and many more. So, no matter what you're shopping for, you're likely to find a way to get it shipped to you for free!

On your phone and doing ten other things? You're normal.


Have you ever found yourself holding car keys, answering the phone, juggling a bag of groceries and trying to keep a toddler from throwing himself into the path of a speeding Fedex truck?

How about leading a conference call, taking notes, eating lunch and formatting a presentation, all at once? Or making dinner, talking to your mother, letting the dog in, and paying your bills online?

We're positive you said yes to at least one of these scenarios. And, did you notice that the phone is a common denominator in these stories? Cell phones are even more leash-like than those long cords that tether those olive-colored kitchen telephones, and no one has time to "just" talk on the phone.
