I did some online shopping as soon as December rolled in. I always try to do most of my shopping online because it is very convenient and some times tax free. I needed to get some children’s toys for the kids in the family so I went to Target online. That day it said free shipping so I thought I was getting a good deal. I bought 3 items, and decided to have it shipped to our house since we’ll be seeing the kids on Christmas anyway, we thought it would be better to give the gifts to them ourselves (we usually have the gifts shipped to their house).  The next day, I received sale confirmations from target. And then the following day, i checked my credit card for the transactions and that’s when i noticed that the amount charged were much larger than what I purchased the toys for. Turned out 1 toy purchse is one transaction. And I got charged shipping per toy! So for a $25 purchase, I got charged $33. That’s almost 25% more than the original purchase price. And to think these toys weren’t really *that* heavy! Man, I felt ripped off. Learned my lesson. Read and double check the charges before submitting your order! Not gonna buy from the online Target store. That free shipping wasnt free at all. Very misleading. Amazon and Overstock did pretty good with shipping.
