One-step home delivery rates-no guesswork!

Prices in this catalog do not include charges for shipping and handling to

your home or to our Store unless otherwise stated. For as little as $1.35 and

for no more than $5.00, you can have your mailable purchases delivered

to

your home, to a friend 's, even to your office regardless of the total dollar

value and shipping weight of your mailable items'

MAILABLE I'PEMS are usually small and lightweight. They can be shipped

almost anywhere in the United States via UPS (United Parcel Service) or

USPS (United States Postal Service). An item is mailable if there is not an

"R", "F" or "Y" at the end of the catalog number (alone or in combination

with other letters). Add up the individual selling prices of all the mailable

items in your order and find the corresponding charge in the table below.

Delivery time information

In most cases, we process and ship an order within 24 hours after we re–

ceive the order. Some items are transferred from another Merchandise Dis–

tribution Center and may require a longer delivery time than normal. In such

cases, we specify the approximate amount of time it will take for delivery on

the page where we sell the item. We'll make every effort to deliver your

purchase within the stated time, but sometimes it may require up to 30

days for shipment.

Home delivery and handling charges for mailable and non-mailable items

are figured separately. The rate schedules below are based on a composite

of all orders processed through our nationwide Distribution Centers and

apply the current UPS, USPS and freight rates for delivery within the con–

tinental United States and to APO/FPO locations.

NON-MAILABLE ITEMS are usually heavy and/or bulky and usually shipped

via public (non-Montgomery Ward) truck lines. Some public truck lines

will not make delivery inside your home but rather, at a point near your

home such as at the curb or the driveway. An item is non-mailable if the

catalog number ends with an "R", "F" or "Y" (alone or in combination with

other letters) as in this example: S 61 G 92125 R. Add up the shipping

weights of all non-mailable items in your order (count extra ounces as a full

lb.) and find the corresponding charge in the table below.
