Looking to save a few bucks when you pick up a new game, some books, or the newly unveiled Amazon Echo Show? You might be in luck.
Amazon appears to have dropped its free shipping minimum to $25 — just months after it had already lowered it to $35 from $49, making this the first time Amazon's cap has been at the $25 mark since 2013, according to Best Black Friday.
Though Amazon didn't say why it lowered its rates, speculation is that competition from fellow big-box retailer Walmart spurred the decrease.
It's worth noting that Amazon's site states orders shipped for free will take approximately 5-8 business days to arrive. Comparatively, those who shell out $99/year for Amazon Prime are eligible for unlimited free two-day shipping on all qualifying purchases, as well as a laundry list of other perks.
