Wal-Mart Expanding Delivery Options for Last-Minute Shoppers

Total Retail's Take: Wal-Mart is just one example of retailers vying for those last-minute holiday purchases. Target has expanded its free shipping until Jan. 1, and other retailers like lululemon, Nordstrom, Apple and Under Armour are all offering free shipping with no minimum purchase, according to PwC. Furthermore, it's come to the point that retailers really have no choice but to offer free shipping — seven out of 10 consumers say they will take advantage of free shipping offers this holiday season, according to Deloitte's 2016 Holiday Survey results.
