When should I order?
For in-store pick-up we recommend placing your order as far in advance as possible, at least 24 hours, please. If you require pick-up in less than 24-hours, we will do our best to accommodate your needs. If we are shipping your gift, please reach out as soon as possible. We do not accommodate same-day orders or "emergency" orders (note: we are not able to deliver on Sundays or Mondays). For example, if you need a basket to arrive on a Friday, please reach out at the start of the week.
What fees are involved?
Gift Items: We charge retail prices for the items included in the basket. We recommend a $75 minimum if you are including cheese and/or wine or beer.
Assembly fee: For the predefined baskets and totes listed above, the total price includes the $15 assembly fee. An assembly fee of $15 will be added to the cost of any custom gift basket or tote.
