There are different ways to find free shipping deals. Each have their own benefits. I like to first hit up online shopping resource sites.

Many shopping resource websites can assist you in finding great deals online that include free shipping. These websites not only feature free shipping but other savings as well. Make sure to take advantage of not only these free shipping offers, but other coupons. On top of your free shipping you could take off $5, $10, or $50, or possibly a certain percent of your total. You can also find great deals on getting free items to go along with your order.

ItsAllFreeOnline.com

This website often features free shipping codes and deals. Most recently you can find free shipping at Finish Line as well as many other online stores. By searching their free shipping category you can find great deals without paying shipping and handling.

DealLocker.com

Deal Locker devotes their entire websites to finding deals online. Simply search the store you wish to purchase from. Many of the stores they have listed feature dozens of coupons that include free shipping.

FreeShippingOn.com

Free Shipping On is a great tool that finds you free shipping on Amazon and eBay. It will also find you free shipping on other stores. Online stores like OfficeMax, ProFlowers, Circuit City, Dell, Staples, New Egg and Walmart.

Amazon.com

When buying certain items online, I usually like to use Amazon. A large majority of their items seem to have offer free shipping. The shipping is generally a bit slower. Instead of 1-2 days you may receive it in 3 to 5 days.

Your minimum purchase generally needs to be at least $25 as well, but the money you would pay shipping would make it worthwhile to order $25 worth of items.

Hit the Search Engines

Simply by entering the store you want to find free shipping on (of course if you can't find it at these great sites) you should find results for whatever you are looking for.

Make sure to check expiration dates as well as other terms that may not let the offer be valid. Some websites will offer free shipping only with a minimum purchase. This is useful when you are trying to buy a bulk of items at a certain store. Try to save up your order into one big order instead of buying once a week, trying buying once a month. That way you can get that minimum amount and save on free shipping. This in the long run, will save you in the end.
