Vera Bradley- buy now or wait?

[zippingalong]

I found a wristlet for my sister tonite on Vera Bradley. I know she'd like it and it was 50% off at $34. The shipping, however, is ridiculous. About 1/4 the cost of the item. Would you buy it now or wait for a free shipping deal to sweeten the pot? (Maybe cyber Monday?)

I don't know about Cyber Monday, but I rarely see totally free shipping. I usually wait until I can bundle my purchases to get to the free shipping minimum (now $75). I have missed out on several items because I didn't want anything else and I didn't want to pay for the shipping.

They are going to have a lot of sales between now and Christmas so you may want to wait and chance it.

I'm thinking about doing both sisters and my mom and that'll cover the free shipping.

This won't really help you with free shipping...but it will allow you to buy some extra gifts!
Make sure you sign up to receive e-mails from them...for the past few months at the beginning of the month I have received a get 20.00 off a 75.00 dollar purchase. My experience has been that I have been allowed to use this in person at Vera Bradley Outlets as well so its good to have.

After the$20 off does your previously $75 order still qualify for free shipping?
