Can I use my account to order for someone else?

Yes, but please be aware only one credit card can be linked to your account at any one time. Both cards may be charged the $1 authorisation fee, however the final balance of both orders will be charged to the last card on file when your order is picked. We recommend setting up each individual with their own account to avoid any confusion.

Can I pay using my Minlaton Foodland charge account?
No, sorry. Payment is by credit card only.

 

What if something I order is not available?
If an item you ordered is out of stock, you can request we supply a substitute. This can be set per item by clicking the ‘Add Note’ icon below any product you order. It can also be set against your whole order using the ‘Substitutions’ option during checkout. If you allow substitutes and an item you requested is unavailable, we will endeavour to select a similar type and priced item. You will only be charged for the substituted item. If we are unable to supply a substitute you will not be charged for the item.  

 

What if I am unhappy with a substitution?

If you are unhappy with the substitute we have selected you can arrange to return the product for a full refund providing the product is unused and unopened. For further information, please call the Store Manager on 8853 2306.

 

Why is the price I was charged different to the price at checkout?
The price you see at the checkout is an estimate based on what you wanted to order. We estimate a price for weighed items (like mince meat or bananas) and when we pack your order, we weigh the items and charge the exact price.

 

Can you guarantee an item I order will be available? 
No, as we open our timeslots 8 days in advance, and we only pick on the day of your reserved timeslot, we cannot guarantee stock availability. As our stock levels change on a daily basis, the products displayed in our website only indicate our available range, not stock levels.

 

Can I make additions or changes to my order after I have checked out?

Yes, you can make changes to your order up until 10am on the day of delivery/collection by calling the store on 08 8853 2306. Whilst we will try our best to accommodate your requests, last minute changes or additions to your order cannot be guaranteed.
