Free Shipping Day

On Free Shipping Day, many companies delight buyers with unique offers! When we order goods in online stores, we think several times before this: often transportation services have exorbitant prices. Today you can relax and save the budget.

History

The holiday was founded by American entrepreneur Luke Knowles. He was 30 years old: ambitiousness was noted by many! The man came up with a brilliant idea after monitoring statistics: purchases before Christmas peak until December 12th. It is not surprising, because starting from the middle of the month, buyers go to shopping centers for goods because of the worries that the delivery of online stores will not have time to bring things before the celebration. Luke realized it was too soon!

He not only launched the site freeshipping.org, but also filled it with trade offers in 13 days! Then the team consisted of two people – from the entrepreneur himself and a colleague: together they thought through everything to the smallest detail, secured for the sellers and prompt delivery. When Knowles talked about plans to do it, people looked at him like he was crazy, thinking it was unrealistic. As you know, everything worked out!
