Vent: That "free shipping" code that only works on orders over $75
I keep seeing people post these coupon codes that promise free shipping, then I click through and read the fine print. Its always orders over $75 or $100. I mostly buy small stuff under $30. By the time I add junk to hit the minimum, I've spent way more than shipping would have cost. Why do people even share these without mentioning the catch? Anyone else fall for this or do you just pay the $5 for shipping instead?

Why do stores think we all want to buy 3 times as much just to save on shipping? It feels like a trap honestly. I'll add stuff to my cart and then realize I'm spending an extra $40 for nothing I actually need. That's way more than the $5 shipping would have cost me. I just pay the shipping now and move on.

Right, and then you're stuck with a bunch of random stuff you only bought to hit free shipping.
