You have to spend 150 dollars to get it. Seriously VS and Urban Outfitters?
The idea of free shipping is not appealing to me when..?

That is how most of the medical scrub websites are. Or it's some other ridiculous offer like "Spend $275 and get $5 off your purchase!"

Some websites it's worth it. I purchased some stuff once off the JCP website and they were running a free shipping if you spent X amount. Well I had only
spent Y amount but my shipping costs made it X amount so I went back through the website and found a sweater I liked for the same price and got my shipping
free. Either way I would have spent the same amount but this way I got more out of it.

I know what you guys mean. It's only worth it if you were already going to spend near that amount!

That is why I like Amazon. You only need a $25 purchase for free shipping.

Eh, websites always raise the price of their stuff to accommodate the "free shipping" option, so it's never really free. I never pay attention to
sites offering it an incentive to purchase.
That is why I like Amazon. You only need a $25 purchase for free shipping. I bought a DVD set for $17 there, and with the shipping options, it came out to $21 and some change. So sometimes the $25 for Free Super shipping
isn't worth it when you consider that someone people just buy things in order to make it to the $25 point.

That is why you don't buy stuff from Amazon until you have $25 worth of stuff you need.

You could buy a skirt from Bloomingdales or Saks and it could be $250
