Wal*Mart Shipping Magic

Yesterday morning, around 4:30 AM, I ordered a Blu-ray Player from Wal*Mart.com. It was on sale for $65, so I figured it was a great deal. As part of their holiday shopping deals, they are offering free shipping on any and all orders, no matter how big or small, which is great because shipping can get expensive sometimes. I went through the steps and paid for my order, and the receipt said that I should expect my package between Monday the 22nd and Friday the 26th. No problem, I figured, as with free shipping they usually go the slower route. I received a notice this morning saying that my package was on the truck and heading for delivery, and I could not believe what I was reading. I just received my package, at 4:30 PM, 1 day after I purchased this item, so in 36 hours I received a package using the free shipping method. This is almost unheard of, and I am extremely impressed. I was given the option to pay for the 2 day shipping method, which was an unsightly $20, and I'm sure glad I didn't use that. Any of you looking for holiday shopping at a great price, I encourage you to check out Wal*mart.com, because as I've said, not only do they have free shipping, but they have fast shipping. Many of their products are on sale for very low prices as well, so this looks to be a promising holiday season for the company.
