Why does it have to be so high?! I will always put stuff in my online cart but end up not purchasing after seeing the shipping amount! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822359 Fri, 31 May 2013 14:32:33 +0000 TheReelDeal 822359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup! It sucks because I love online shopping but most times I will shy away if there isn't low cost or free shipping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822313 Fri, 31 May 2013 14:13:50 +0000 birdofafeather 822313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hate paying for shipping. Glad I'm not the only one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822284 Fri, 31 May 2013 14:05:13 +0000 regberadaisy 822284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: Thanks! Good to know about free return on Gap/ON! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822273 Fri, 31 May 2013 14:01:33 +0000 Charm54 822273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As a Canadian I'm used to it. :( I'm always jealous of you Americans and your free shipping!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822257 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:56:19 +0000 SugarplumsMom 822257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I'm a little ridiculous about it, too. I don't mind waiting, even if it's something I actually need. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822256 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:55:50 +0000 betsyboop 822256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, I refuse to pay for shipping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822224 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:42:31 +0000 Foodnerd81 822224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Return shipping is free on Gap/Old Navy-- they won't accept most maternity clothes to the store, though with regular clothes I've also returned to the store with no problem. You just print out their shipping label and drop it off with UPS. </p> <p>J Crew charges for return shipping, but will accept returns to the store, include bathing suits (as long as those sanitary liners are still in or whatever). Just make sure things aren't on final sale, since then they will not take returns (hence, ordering the full price stuff to make my order big enough). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822218 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:40:58 +0000 PurplePumps 822218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tlcbaby: that's what I do too! I used to be easier when I lived and worked near a mall. Now that it's not convenient, I just don't buy as much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822211 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:37:39 +0000 runsyellowlites 822211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's rare I'll order if I have to pay shipping! I WISH we could get prime but right now we can't add another subscription (I was sad when the free trial of that &amp; music unlimited were up *boo*). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822194 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:31:09 +0000 rattles 822194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, I hate shipping fees! I also hate when you have a discount code and a free shipping code and they'll only take one. Totally deters me from buying and using either! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822193 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:30:27 +0000 regberadaisy 822193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: brilliant. Is return shipping at ON/Gap free? What about Jcrew? They let you return bathing suits? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822188 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:27:54 +0000 Foodnerd81 822188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hate it. I order a ton from Old Navy and the Gap lately (yay reasonably priced maternity clothes! Boo not have it in the store!) I always order enough so my order gets to the free shipping limit and then return most of it. They do free returns by mail too, so you don't even have to go to the store. </p> <p>I do the same thing with J Crew, though I return to the store then. Like, I want this one bathing suit that's on clearance? I'll order all the sizes of other bathing suits I might want when THEY go on sale, try them all on, and return them to the store. Then, I know what size I am for when THOSE items go on final sale. </p> <p>I might put too much thought into this. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822183 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:26:18 +0000 Lindsay05 822183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hate when I shop on a store online for hours and then go to checkout and the price doubles because of shipping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822181 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:25:26 +0000 tlcbaby 822181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: This is what I always do with Target and ON orders. A friend told me she does this a long time ago and I couldn't believe I had never thought of it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822180 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:24:45 +0000 Alivoo01 822180@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG - yes!!! I refuse to buy stuff online if there's a shipping fee. The fee is just ridiculous!</p> <p>@tlcbaby: That's a great trick/idea!! Purchase enough items to get free shipping, and just return the miscellaneous items! Bit of a hassle, but if I desperately want something in the future, I'll keep this tip in mind! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822176 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:23:50 +0000 emg86 822176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, Amazon prime has got me spoiled. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822174 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:23:18 +0000 regberadaisy 822174@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! Often times a good deal is no longer a good deal bc of S+H! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822173 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:23:14 +0000 MrsStormy 822173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I hate shipping costs. I will almost never buy something if I have to pay shipping. </p> <p>@PrincessBaby: This drives me absolutely insane, I normally give up, decide its not worth it and don't order it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822172 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:23:06 +0000 PrincessBaby 822172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tlcbaby: Oooohhhhh! I like your style!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822170 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:22:38 +0000 PrincessBaby 822170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: ditto on the prime:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822163 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:21:29 +0000 mrsjazz 822163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. It usually stops me from ordering items once I calculate the shipping. Which is why I love my Amazon Prime membership. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822161 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:21:24 +0000 kjpugs 822161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, free shipping makes me 10000% more likely to shop online. Just bought a friend's wedding gift online at Kohl's because I had a 15% off plus free shipping code... but after the 15% off it fell just under their "$75 free shipping" limit so then I had to try another free shipping code, it wouldn't work, so I had to call and have them place the order for me. It was SUCH a waste of time but that shipping was more than $10!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822159 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:21:01 +0000 tlcbaby 822159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh, I'll do anything to avoid paying for shipping! I usually won't order something if I do have to pay.</p> <p>@PrincessBaby: Can you return in store? Usually I buy $50 worth of stuff and just take the stuff right back to the store that I don't want so I can still get the free shipping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822157 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:20:05 +0000 autumnlove 822157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: Baby Gap gets me every single time...!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-hate-paying-for-shipping#post-822155 Fri, 31 May 2013 13:19:29 +0000 PrincessBaby 822155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes it deters me from purchasing! And I hate how some sites only do free shipping with a minimum order of way more than what I want to buy! I want to get H a little sun hat on baby gap and it's only $16 and the min for free shipping is $50 and Homegirl does not need any more damn clothes- gah! </p>
