Shopping & Delivery Services Update
Effective Sunday, February 15th
Basics is proud to have kept up with the big regional and national grocery chains by offering shopping and delivery services for our customers, ever since the pandemic! In fact, we informally offered them to a handful of homebound customers many years before the pandemic, because it was the right thing to do. That said, our current shopping and delivery pricing was built on pandemic survival, not long-term sustainability or growth. To keep offering you the best value and convenience, beginning February 15th, the following policies will go into effect:
Instead of a 24-hour turnaround, orders will be available in 4 hours or less!
A NEW Saturday 4-6 p.m. delivery window will be added.
Phone and online orders will incur a $1.99 fee for our staff to shop for you. This will not apply to “do you have this in stock today” phone calls, but it WILL apply for us to shop for you and set the items aside for you with your name and contact information, regardless of whether you plan to pay during that phone call or later (holds).
Delivery in Janesville city limits will be $5 for orders under $75, and FREE for orders $75 and up!
The fine print: Applies to orders over the phone and online. $5 delivery fee applies to orders under $75 before tax and after any applicable discounts. Orders must be placed by 12:00 p.m. for same-day delivery. Delivery windows are 10 a.m.-12 p.m. & 4 p.m.-6 p.m. weekdays or 4 p.m.-6 p.m. Saturdays. Pickup is available any time the store is open.
Thank you for your continued support!
