Four stores, one flat shipping rate

Get $7 flat shipping when you shop at Old Navy, Gap, Banana Republic, and Piperlime online. The stores, which are owned by the same company, recently combined their Web sites so that when you shop at their online stores all your purchases go into one checkout cart. Shipping is $7 even if you buy from more than one of them.

Everything is shipped in one box, except for Piperlime items. Returns are free but read up on each store's return policy for details.

If you only buy stuff from Piperlime your shipping is free. $7 is a little more than you will see elsewhere, but the idea of a flat shipping rate is appealing because going into it you know your costs. And it is definitely cheaper than buying individually from each store.
