It is free shipping on any of the Alps bags. (I ordered the 5200 - as a longer range BOB. I have a 2700 and a 1800 already...I just need to work on making them BOBs.) If you order online, you need to select standard shipping; it will say $9.99 initially, but by the time you check out it will be free. The free shipping ends April 30th.

Thanks for the link Nicnap! I usually purchase from Sierra, but the free shipping is very tempting! :)

Great, now I can kill myself carrying 40lbs on my back.;) I haven't carried that much "stuff" since I was in the Army 15 years ago. I was 45 when I retired then. If I try this now, I will be prepared but dead from carrying it.:)

Too funny, Skowl. That is why my BOB is my old Goose Gear with provisons for the traditional 3 day patrol. About 20# and it's on the hip.
People have a hard time imagining how heavy it all gets until your carry it around for a few hours:D

Just a note, the free shipping is on anything by Alps Mountaineering, and anything you order with it is shipped free also.
