Amazon and its 'Shipping Today' on Christmas Eve
If you are one of those who give gifts at Christmas and you have reached the 24th day without ideas, perhaps we can help you. It turns out that Amazon has an option within its shipments that also works on this special day and that can save you from such a situation. We refer to the "Delivery today", which means the delivery of the order on the same day (as long as it is done before the cut-off time) between 18:30 and 22:00.
It turns out that this possibility is not available, for example, on Saturdays, Sundays or holidays, which could make you think that, being Christmas Eve, it would not be available today either. Nothing could be further from the truth. Amazon considers the 24th as a Monday any and allows you to use the «Delivery today«, which turns out to be free for orders with a minimum amount of 29 euros, as long as you are Prime (If this is not the case, the payment to be made is 7,99 euros/shipment, and if you are prime subscriber but it does not exceed 29 euros, the cost is 5,99 euros).
you will have to comply two more requirements so that everything goes smoothly today: that the product obviously allows same-day shipping and that you live in an area where the service is enabled. This type of delivery is thus available for most postal codes in the Community of Madrid and for some postal codes within the city of Barcelona.
How to check if he arrives at your house on time
To check if the chosen product arrives on time at your home, make sure you have entered the address or at least the zip code -in the right column, between the orange "Buy Now" button and the gray "Add to Wish List" button.
With this entered data you will be able to see if the products you are interested in arrive after Christmas (it is shown in red, you will see it immediately, calm down) or if the message appears in green indicating: “Receive it before Christmas. Please choose the appropriate shipping option when placing your order."
