February 16, 2007, Newsletter Issue #40: Cost of Shipping

Tip of the Week

When figuring out how much your food delivery is going go cost to ship, consider the weight and how quickly you need the product. If you have your food shipped express or if you choose a company that charges you according to the weight of your item, your $39.95 gourmet dessert can end up costing you $75 or more after shipping. So be careful of what method of shipping you choose.

Some companies will charge you 10 percent of your order for shipping if your order is, say, more than $300. Others will offer free shipping if you've spent that much money with them.
Shipping to places like Alaska and Hawii can cost extra.
You can pay for your order with most major credit cards.
