To limit delivery costs when I order a gift on the internet, I discovered the wishlist. You've never heard of it ? It's time to test the principle to prepare for Christmas without delay!
A few years ago, I passed my baccalaureate in the United States. In addition to having had a great experience, I came back from there with a second family… And who says 2 families, says twice as many gifts to give at Christmas and birthdays. Fortunately, I discovered the wishlist that Amazon has set up on its site.
In fact, the wishlist works a bit like the birth list I told you about a few weeks ago. Once connected to the site, you enter the references of the objects that you would like to see offered to you by your friends or your family.
Everyone is then free to buy what they want from you, according to their desires and their budget.
Completely free for those who create their list, this principle only costs the price of the product to the buyer.
If the gift must be delivered in France, the shipping costs are free without minimum purchase for all things books, shoes and clothes.
It is necessary to reach 15 € of purchases for the other products.
If your delivery is for abroad, you will pay an amount that varies depending on the delivery area .
For example, when I send a package to my American “sister”, I pay €7 for postage, and €1.50 per item. Basically, for less than 20 €, I send her a substantial package... with objects that she has selected herself!
Frankly, I tend to encourage everyone I know to create a wishlist. Especially when they have family or friends who live far away. Sending parcels is always expensive when you go through La Poste.
There, you make your purchases and everything is delivered to your home, without the slightest loss of time... Or money ! In addition, you are guaranteed to please since the gifts have been selected by the person directly concerned!
Do you have any other tips for limiting delivery costs when ordering gifts? Let me know in the comments!
Personally, I save around €20 per package I send. Knowing that I'm leaving one for Christmas, one for my "sister's" birthday and one for my "niece's", I'm already saving €60 per year> . And I'm not even talking about the packages I have delivered in France, for different occasions.
Frankly, go check it out and you shouldn't regret it!
