Is adding items to qualify for free shipping worth it?
Find the threshold gap in cents. Round the gap divided by the eligible item price up to whole units. Extra merchandise spend minus the avoided delivery fee gives the change in checkout total. A negative result means the checkout total falls. Already-qualified baskets require no top-up.
