FREE SHIPPING PROMOTION REQUIREMENTS  (When Available)
You must select the "Free Shipping" option from the drop down box when selecting a shipping method. Free shipping applies to all qualifying orders. All orders made with the free shipping promotion must have a shipping address that is within the continental United States. Please note that your shipment will be sent UPS ground though you may choose a faster method of delivery service. Almost all our products qualify for this promotion. Some items do not qualify for this discount and may have a fixed shipping charge due to their weight, size or if they are sent from another manufacturer, such as strollers or furniture. Items that are large or heavy may be drop shipped directly to you from the manufacturer and may not qualify for free shipping promotions. We reserve the right to discontinue or change promotions and coupons at anytime without notice.If the free shipping icon is not displayed on the product page in the price area then it does not qualify. Most products do qualify.
 
*Not available to Hawaii, Alaska, APO/FPO or other International destinations: Packages must ship via USPS Priority service.

**IMPORTANT: If you qualify for this promotion and later return merchandise that reduces your total order below the qualifying promotional amount, you will be charged the full cost of the original promotional shipment charges. Adhering to these guidelines allows us to offer better promotions, discounts, low and free shipping opportunities to our customers. By asking you to become a larger customer we then can reduce our profit margin and pass on the savings to our customer like you. This can only be achieved if our policies are followed. We strive to offer excellent customer service and thank you in advance for being a new or welcomed back existing customer.

DAYS IN TRANSIT
The amount of time before you receive your purchased products is determined by the shipment method and the location of your shipping address from our warehouses in Washington State. Please be advised that time in transit begins and is calculated to start from your ship date as noted by your receiving of a shipment confirmation and/or tracking number email. USPS does not provide a tracking number to customers but rather a confirmation.

USPS PRIORITY MAIL AND 1st CLASS MAIL PACKAGE
Take approximately 2-3 days on domestic U.S. shipments. UPS Ground takes a little bit longer (please refer to chart below for time period). These shipping carriers are the most efficient method to get your items fast and at a low cost. Packages of light weight or smaller items usually show it to be faster and less expensive to ship via USPS. Larger and heavier packages will usually be more economically sent by UPS Ground.

UPS GROUND
Estimated Days in Transit depends upon the geographical zone of your shipping address.

Please inspect your merchandise upon receipt and report any damage immediately to us within 48 hours. Our statistics show that very rarely shipments are damaged. If by chance the box has been damaged causing subsequent damage to the product, please retain the shipping box for proper proof and contact us and the shipping carrier to make a claim and provide the required information.

SHIPPING COSTS
It is important to realize that the more you buy the less the shipping cost as a percentage of the total. This is because there are many items that don't add any or little additional charge for shipping. Many of the items are so light weight and compact so they do not incur extra freight amounts and we pass on the savings to our customers. This means that a few more items added to your shopping cart should not add much more in the way of shipping fees. We pass on our established excellent freight contract rates to our customers.

PROPER ORDERING WHEN MILITARY ORDERS ARE ACCEPTED
Military Overseas Addresses 
Following these steps will ensure that you're charged the correct shipping amount and that your order will be delivered in a timely manner. When registering your address for payment on our site you will enter as your "billing Information" the same address within the U.S.A. where your credit card statement are mailed on the credit card you are using. Then enter the "shipping Information" of the overseas military location, including, if applicable: the Military Base name, Unit Number, Box Number, or USS Ship name. Enter the city, state, zip code according to the guidelines below

HOW TO COMPLETE THE SHIPPING INFORMATION FOR MILITARY PERSONNEL & FAMILIES:
Regardless of where the recipient is stationed, select "United States" as the Country.
Select in the "Shipping Information" section at checkout the country as United States and choose the state as either AA, AE or AP.
 
AA (Armed Forces of Americas)
AE (Armed Forces of Europe)
AP (Armed Forces of Pacific) 

Enter "AA" if the recipient is stationed in the Americas. "AE" if the recipient is stationed in Europe, Canada, Africa, or the Middle East. Enter "AP" if the recipient is stationed in Asia or the Pacific. All shipments to APO (Army Post Office) or FPO (Fleet Post Office) addresses are sent via U.S. Priority or First Class Mail. The Military handles the delivery once the packages arrive at the designated AA, AE or AP address, and from that point the delivery is subject to the military delivery schedules. We estimate 5 to 7 business days for delivery once the order has been shipped; however, some destinations may take up to 21 days. We automatically calculate your shipping charge which is the same as domestic U.S.A. rates. Once you have approved the total cost, including shipping charges, payment can be made. Certain over-sized or heavy items cannot be shipped to these addresses.
