Do you ship to Alaska and Hawaii?
Yes! We offer 2-Day Express and Next Day Express shipping to Alaska and Hawaii. You may select
either of these shipping options at Checkout, but please provide a street address for delivery. Express
shipping cannot deliver to P.O. boxes.
Do you ship outside of the United States?
No, but we are always striving to provide the best service possible to our customers. We are currently working on finding ways to ship our products to reach more locations.
Additional Shipping
SmartBargains.com strives to charge as little as possible for shipping. However, due to the incremental
shipping costs created by each additional item, we include a nominal $1 handling charge for each additional item above two items in your order. Additional shipping charges also apply to oversized items.
SmartBargains.com will only include additional shipping charges when necessary to handle your delivery
quickly and accurately.
The chart below shows how additional shipping charges are calculated in each scenario:

pages for those items.

Fragrance Shipping
Fragrance items can only be shipped via Standard. There are no expedited shipping options for fragrance items.
Combination Orders
Shipping charges are cumulative on combination orders. In other words, if your order includes general
merchandise as well as oversized items, shipping will be calculated for each component of the order
and totaled.
Fragrance items will always be shipped via Standard, separately from the rest of your order.
Most items are available to ship in 1 - 2 business days.

When to Expect Your Package
What "Ready to Ship" Means
Each item's page tells you when it will be "Ready to Ship," that is, how long it will take before it is
packaged, labeled, and ready to leave our warehouse.
We start preparing your order as soon as we receive it so you can have it as soon as possible. In many
cases, your order leaves our warehouse the same day you place it. Most orders leave our warehouse
within 24-48 hours. The warehouse ships packages Monday through Friday.
Standard Shipping
Please allow 5-8 business days from the date of shipment for your order to arrive. Most orders arrive sooner.
Expedited Shipping
When you need it fast, we deliver. Choose from these three expedited shipping options at Checkout. Note:
delivery time is measured from the date of shipment, not the date of order. See individual product pages
to learn when your item will be ready to ship.
