Amazon Deadlines for Christmas

Amazon has a variety of deadlines for Christmas purchases.

+ Friday DEC 22 is the last day for the usual 2-day Prime shipping

+ Saturday DEC 23: for some areas, this is the last day for Prime 1-Day shipping. Minimum order of $35 is needed for this option

+ Sunday DEC 24: for other areas, this is the last day for Prime 1-Day shipping. Minimum order of $35 is needed for this option. Ends by 9:30am local time (or earlier, varies by region), so this is for very early orders (or late night Saturday orders).

+ Sunday DEC 24 by 9:14pm local time (or earlier, varies by region): PRIME NOW deliveries, Prime members only. Minimum order amount required (varies by region).

+ Monday DEC 25: gift cards and other digital purchases

It is important to note that for local deliveries (Prime NOW, 1-Day Prime shipping) the items of interest must be in-stock at a local/regional facility, otherwise there isn’t enough time to get to you in time.

The shopping cart will give you a more accurate estimate when you are about to place an order. There are many variables in play, so the above deadlines are only a guideline/estimate.
