Ever tried to order something from Amazon and discover you were just short of the $25 total needed to qualify for free shipping?

Now you don’t have to spend hours trying to find something small to fill out your order. Simply visit the Amazon Filler Item Finder and it will help you find something. The Filler Item Finder lets you input the maximum dollar figure you need to qualify for free shipping. It also lets you narrow the search to one or more categories such as baby, electronics, books, DVDs, or kitchen supplies.

Obviously you have to weigh which is cheaper…. buying one more item to get the free shipping or just paying the shipping cost. Sometimes it’s cheaper to just add one more item. When you’re looking for that filler item, think of things you could use around your house: pens, kitchen utensils, food items. You could also think of potential stocking stuffers, too.
