MINNEAPOLIS (November 10, 2010) — From exclusive daily deals to the biggest Target free-shipping event ever, Target.com is the place to find the perfect solution for all your holiday needs – including fresh Christmas trees delivered right to your door.

 

“Target’s multi-channel shopping experience makes holiday shopping simpler than ever – anywhere and anytime – in a way that’s convenient and fun,” said Steve Eastman, president, Target.com. “From our popular Daily Deals experience to online-only shopping events, Target.com is the place to be this year for guests seeking the convenience of online shopping. And this year we have enhanced that experience by quadrupling the number of items eligible for free shipping and offering an additional five percent off all online purchases when guests use their REDcard* at checkout.”

 

Everyday Great Deals

Target.com’s Daily Deals will offer exclusive one-day savings of up to 50 percent off Target’s regular prices. New through the holiday season, are:

 

* “Mega Merry Mondays,” kicking off each week with deals on 17 hot items; and

* “Total Toy Tuesdays,” offering deep discounts on five toy favorites.

 

Guests can be alerted to these daily deals by signing up for e-mail, text message or Twitter alerts at Target.com/dailydeals.

 

And for the first time this year, Target.com is selling fresh Christmas trees, wreaths and garlands. Guests can pre-order now, with trees shipping for free beginning Nov. 15. Prices range from $79.99 to $159.99, depending on height.

This year, Target.com is offering its biggest free-shipping event ever. When guests spend $50 or more on Target.com from Nov. 21 to Dec. 11, they will receive free shipping directly to their home on more than 800,000 items, from toys and appliances to bedding, furniture and home décor.

 

In addition, estimated delivery dates are provided for all items. To ensure a Dec. 24 delivery, guests can order in-stock items via standard shipping up until Dec. 21 or 1-day shipping up until Dec. 22.

 

Thanksgiving Day Online-Only Sale

For guests who want to get a head start on holiday shopping while stores are closed, Target.com will host an exclusive event on Thanksgiving Day from midnight PST to 11:59 p.m. PST. The sale will feature up to 50 percent off electronics items like cameras, televisions, a Blu-ray player and video game console. In addition, any Barbie item purchased will ship for free.

Free Shipping would be nice. I almost ordered a couple of items last night, but the shipping killed it for me. I was just searching on-line for coupons for free shipping/discounts actually.
