[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 330370, member: 13921"] As fuel prices go up, so do surcharges. It also changes the way that people think about the way they shop. I race dirtbikes. During race season, my daughter and I usually do 1-2 trips to our dealer per month. It's about a 75 mile round trip. They ship daily and for orders over $100, shipping is free. This past weekend, my daughter and I went through our bikes and made a list of the crap we need and I ordered it. It'll be here tomorrow. I spent more than $100, so shipping was free. Way cheaper than driving. On Sunday, we went trail riding and talked about this amongst the group. Seems to be a common strategy. Small businesses on my route are trying to figure out how they can inexpensively sell online. If they can figure it out, they will become daily pick up accounts. If anything, I'd bet that the threshold for free shipping will go up (maybe $250 instead of $100.) TB [/QUOTE]
