Have you ever been shopping online and thought to yourself how cool it would be to get those shoes, jeans, blender, (or whatever it might be) sent to your home for free so you could try them on and check them out in person? Then if they didn’t fit, or you didn’t like it for whatever reason, you could return them for free? How cool would that be.

Well, today I’m here to tell you that this already is the reality with a bunch of popular online retailers. Shop ’til you drop then mail back the stuff you don’t want for FREE. 100% risk free shopping. Here are 28 popular online stores that’ll currently let you do it.

Also, were you aware that all Amazon Prime members can get the same free 2-day shipping benefits when shopping on Shopbop? Very cool (and clever) add on service.

Sunglass Hut

Sunglass Hut.com ships for free (no minimum) and lets you return items for free as well.

Have you ever broken a pair of expensive sunglasses? If so, listen up. From their website, “Occasionally sunglasses break. It’s sad, but true. But when it happens to sunglasses bought at Sunglass Hut, we replace them with the same pair (or equivalent, if unavailable) at 50% off the original price.”

I just completely fell in love with this company.

World of Watches

Buy your next killer time piece and if you don’t like how it looks on your wrist, just return it for free. Oh, and I forgot to mention that they’ll mail it to you for free to begin with. Win-win.

Make sure to return items within 30 days of receiving them or you’ll get stuck paying a 20% re-stocking fee.

Apparently they sell a lot more than watches as fragrances, swimwear, intimate apparel, and hosiery are all non-refundable.

Zappos

The Zappos shipping and return policy is the current gold standard in my opinion.

Free shipping and free returns for 365 days after you receive your purchase.

24/7 customer service to help you if you have any trouble with your purchase or return.

Not sure your size? Just order a few pairs of shoes and return the ones that don’t fit or you don’t like.

Order your shoes on 2/29 of a leap year….you’ll have exactly 4 years to return them! Seriously.

Ask the Reader: Do you know of any more online stores that offer free shipping and free returns? Let me know, thanks!
