[quote=Anonymous]Most large businesses still offer free shipping wouldn't order over $50 or more. As a small business owner that also does e-commerce. Unfortunately, we can not afford to offer free shipping as the cost of shipping has increased significantly and with only 20-30% n profit margins offering free shipping plus the cost of the box and packaging materials decreases our margins by 10% or more depending on where the package is being shipped to. Many small businesses make the mistake of offering free shipping and discounts to lure customers and then either have to stop offering them all together or raise there prices to make up the loss.
