Unlocking 6 Months Free of Target‘s Shipt Delivery

A Retail Specialist‘s Guide for Target Circle Members

As a retail specialist, I often get questions from Target shoppers wondering – can I get an extended free trial of Shipt grocery delivery as a Target Circle member?

The answer is yes! By leveraging your free Target Circle membership, you can enjoy 6 full months of unlimited free Shipt deliveries from Target on orders over $35.

Here‘s your ultimate guide to maximizing Target‘s Shipt delivery including must-know details on how Shipt works, Target Circle perks, membership costs, and more.

How Target‘s Same-Day Delivery Service Works

Shipt is a grocery and household item delivery service owned by Target since 2017. After placing a qualifying order on Target.com, Shipt‘s team of personal shoppers will:

• Pick up your requested items from the shelves of your nearest Target location
• Carefully pack and load items into insulated cooler bags as needed
• Deliver directly to your doorstep in as little as 1-2 hours

According to Shipt‘s website, their shoppers deliver to 92% of members in under an hour during "delivery windows".

Shipt Delivery Statistics

While Shipt can deliver from other grocery chains like Kroger and Meijer, members who want same-day Target delivery will find this service indispensable.

Unlocking the 6 Month Target Shipt Free Trial

Here are the key details you need to know about scoring an extended free trial:

• Non-Target Circle Members: Get a 4 week Shipt free trial
• Target Circle Members: Get a 6 month Shipt free trial

The key is to use your existing Target Circle membership. If you don‘t have one yet, don‘t worry – signing up is fast, free and easy online or via the Target app.

Once you‘re a verified member, simply locate the Shipt offer in your account and tap "Save Offer". The 6 month trial will start automatically from your first order over $35.

You can cancel anytime during the trial period to avoid being charged a membership fee. But with practically half a year of free deliveries, why not enjoy this perk to the fullest?

Shipt Membership Costs

After your free trial concludes, you‘ll want an affordable membership option. Here‘s a breakdown:

• Annual Plan: $99 per year for unlimited deliveries
• Pay Per Delivery: $9.99 fee per eligible order

Based on previous analysis, choosing the yearly plan ensures you get the lowest price per order. Paying monthly makes more sense if you won‘t use it often.

Just take note – RedCard holders unfortunately cannot save 5% on Shipt membership costs or delivery fees.

What Can You Order and Not Order?

As a same-day delivery service for Target inventory, Shipt gives you convenient access to all your usual Target finds including:

✅ Groceries & household items
✅ Baby products, toys
✅ Pet supplies
✅ Health and beauty products

However there are limitations around:

❌ Age-restricted items
❌ Alcohol / Tobacco
❌ Gift Cards
❌ Starbucks, Target Cafe
❌ Items over 40 pounds

And unlike buying directly on Target.com, you cannot apply Target Circle offers or promotions to offset costs. The benefit is paying retail prices for speedy delivery.

Bottom Line

Thanks to the 6 month trial for Target Circle members, you can fully experience the convenience of 1-2 hour Shipt delivery completely free.

Just remember to tip your delivery driver, and cancel ahead if you want to avoid membership charges after the trial concludes.

As a Target shopping expert, I highly recommend all Target fans leverage this nice retail partnership perk! Enjoy exploring everything Shipt has to offer.
