BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – As last-minute holiday to-do lists pile up and ground shipping deadlines pass, Shipt is here to help ensure customers' holiday shopping needs are met with care, quality, and reliability, with a focus on delivering connections. Shipt's marketplace of beloved national and local retailers offers customers access to the things they need for the last-minute holiday sprint, all the way up through Christmas Eve.
Members who order by 3 p.m. local time on December 24 can expect to receive items at their doorsteps the same day. Shipt's nationwide network of local shoppers will be supporting customers in filling those stockings and prepping food for the holidays.

Shipt is also making gifting easier with its new gift delivery feature. Perfect for those "I forgot" moments, this feature lets customers easily send gifts to loved ones near and far.
