Who doesn’t love shopping on Amazon? It is one of our favorite places to shop because you can literally find everything there–clothing, athletic wear, beauty, skincare, home goods, health products… EVERYTHING. Plus, Amazon makes it easy to shop with its Prime Membership and its free shipping policy that lets everyone get their orders for free when spending more than $25 on over 100 million items. How can it get better? We’ll tell you.
Amazon just made a huge change to its free returns policy, so you will have an even easier time shopping for everything you’ll ever need.
You can now make free returns on millions of items sold and fulfilled by Amazon, across all categories. It used to be that you could only make free returns on clothing, bedding and shoes. Plus, items purchased in the lead-up to Christmas and immediately after Christmas, meaning from November 1 through December 31, can be returned until January 31. Usually Amazon only allows a 30-day return window, but this way you have more time to buy gifts and see if people will like them before returning.
Also, you don't even need to package up your returns for Amazon, or even print out a shipping label anymore. Amazon has expanded its "label-free and box-free" return program, which lets you simply bring your return item to a participating location and show them a QR code to complete your return. The program is now availabel at 6,000 locations, including Kohl's, Whole Foods locations and the UPS Store.
Well, what are you waiting for? Get shopping!
