With Christmas falling on a Sunday this year, there is less shipping time before the holiday, and UPS and the Post Office have moved up their own deadlines for regular Ground/Priority Mail shipments to arrive in time for Christmas.
Because we make everything ourselves, in Steubenville, we also need time to produce your items and ship them in time for Christmas--this time has nothing to do with shipping, and everything to do with our busy hands and how much work we have to do.
This year, as in years past, we are offering you: 1) A Christmas Guarantee--all orders received by 12AM 12/10/16 will arrive by Christmas. 2) A bonus discount: 20% off your order with coupon code MIDNIGHT20
Does the Christmas Guarantee count for Free Shipping? If your order qualifies for Free Shipping at $75 or more, then yes, Free Shipping orders are included in the guarantee.
Does this mean that I can't order Christmas gifts after 12/9/16? No, not at all. All this means is that we are guaranteeing orders up to that time. Orders placed after 12/9/16 may likely still arrive in time for Christmas, especially if you pay for expedited shipping, but we can't promise you that. They may arrive a day or two after Christmas, still very much in the Christmas season--isn't it great to be Catholic?
Can I order after 12/9/16 and get my gifts even sooner? Before Christmas Eve? Yes, that is possible, but again, we cannot make that a promise. Buy after 12/9 and your order is in God's hands. As is our standard practice, orders with expedited shipping (UPS 2-Day, Next-Day, USPS Express Mail) are given priority, so if you're traveling, need extra time to wrap gifts, etc., we recommend you choose one of the faster shipping options in order to better your chances of receiving the package sooner. |
