How to save on MidwayUSA shipping costs.

We all know that even though they've dropped their shipping rates, it's still pricey to buy from MidwayUSA. Well here's a trick that I learned that works out to your advantage.

Add a $4-5 "free shipping" item to your order and it'll drop your overall shipping down and you'll get item basically free as compared to original shipping charges.

Example:

Shipping on a range bag to 94621 is $11.59.

Now add item: http://www.midwayusa.com/product/971...ProductFinding for $3.99 (or any other $4-5 item you like)and your shipping drops to $5.80

So in the end, you get a tactical knife and save $1.80 based on the original shipping charges for the bag alone!

Who said the Pino wasn't smart?

I knew that if you order something with free shipping and so shiny else small and they can put the secondary item into the same box that the free shipping item normally ships in then it can ship free but I didn't know a free shipping item may lower regular shipping charges. I will have to try that next time.

Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for the tip, Ell. It will be good training for me to learn how to find something I want that only costs 4 or 5 bucks.
