Even though the holidays aren't really here yet, most of us are already planning our gift shopping. Black Friday is just around the corner, which means everyone needs to be prepared with their shopping lists and credit cards, especially when the deals on Amazon go live. 

Although Amazon Prime members are used to receiving free shipping around the holiday season, people without Prime memberships usually have to spend at least $25 just to qualify for the five to eight-day shipping. This year, Amazon has announced that they will be offering free shipping on all Christmas orders, starting now. Spend as little or as much as you want to, then know that your package will arrive in time for any holiday party or celebration. 

Never before has Amazon offered all shoppers, even non-Prime members, free standard shipping without a minimum. However, if you are a Prime member, you still get the added bonus of free same-day delivery on many items. 

What are you waiting for? Start knocking things off your list today so that your holidays are less stressful than usual.
