Target's "Seasonal Shipping" fails to deliver...

Good morning readers! Did everyone have a happy holiday? And if you ordered items online from Target, did you get them on time? I, for one, did not. Target's so-called "Seasonal Shipping" - which was supposed to arrive by 12/24 if you ordered by the 12/20 cutoff - didn't deliver for me. Oddly enough, one order I made on the 18th arrived on the 23rd, whereas another order I made on the 17th hasn't shown up yet (and according to the UPS tracking # is scheduled to arrive today). I never received an email stating "your item is delayed", either, as Target usually sends when there is a lag in shipping. Anyone else out there have this problem?

I didn't get a package either. It was supposed to arrive by Monday and then Tuesday came and went and nothing. Still today, no arrival.

Ileana, did you you use your Target RedCard? If so, you should be able to track the package via their website. You can look up your past orders and click on the UPS link to see where it is in transit.

To be fair, I think USPS and the other carriers were overwhelmed this holiday season. I work with another company that followed the guidelines from the shipping companies to guarantee arrival by Christmas; once the item has been transferred to the carrier, any delays are out of the sender's hands. For the most part, our things did get delivered on time, but a few packages were delayed, which was the fault of the carrier..
