Shipping Locations & Types
Linda's Diet Delites will ship anywhere in the US via Fedex or the United States Postal Service.
Canadian Shipping
We do not ship to Canada.
Shipping Costs
There is a shipping estimator on the checkout page for both guests and registered customers. Shipping cost is based on weight, distance, and carrier (Fedex or USPS.)
If you want the cheapest shipping, purchase over $100 and it is free for newsletter subscribers..
One way to reduce shipping costs is to buy more! No really, we are serious. The more you purchase, the less the shipping cost per item. For instance sending 4 bags of Fiber Gourmet pasta might cost $10, but sending 12 bags of Fiber Gourmet might only costs $12.
Free Shipping
We currently offer free shipping for newsletter subscribers on all orders over $100 in the continental US. If you can't hit the $100 free shipping level, but want to have free shipping then get some friends involved.
Shipping Date*
Normally, your order will ship the day after the order is placed. If we are missing an item, but that item will arrive in time for your order to ship the same week, we will hold the order till the product arrives. If we are missing an item, but that item won't arrive in time for your order to ship the same week, we will contact you with more information and options.
If your order contains any highly perishable items and the shipping time is such that it won't arrive by Saturday we will hold the order to ship on the next Monday. A Fedex transit times map has been provided below.
Shipping Transit Time
Orders shipped via USPS will arrive by 2-3 days. This means if your order is shipped on a Monday it will arrive by either Weds.
or Thursday.
Orders shipped via Fedex will arrive close to the schedule for the below Fedex map.
USPS? Fedex? I can't Decide!
If you are within the 1-2 day Fedex zone, we recommend choosing Fedex during checkout even if slightly more expensive. Fedex is always more reliable and provides better tracking information.
If you are outside of the 2 day Fedex zone then we recommend USPS if you want it the fastest and Fedex if you want it the cheapest.
All orders over $100 which are shipped for free are shipped using Fedex Ground.
If you live within the 2 day fedex zone and USPS costs more, do not assume USPS arrives faster. USPS almost always takes 2-3 days, even if we send a package down the street.
What is USPS Flat Rate?
For customers outside of our 2 day shipping zone we offer a flat rate USPS shipping option as a way to economically upgrade smaller shipments to a 2 day travel time. There is a small and a large flat rate box. If you choose this option when checking out, we will use whichever fits and remove items from your order to fit the box. Dimensions to soon be added here.
Product Availability
We strive to have the freshest product available at all times which means for perishable items we usually operate with a very lean inventory that is replenished once per week or multiple times per week. As a result, sometimes we need to delay orders because we run out of product or our suppliers do not ship product to us within the expected time frame. If we are missing an item, but that item will arrive in time for your order to ship the same week, we will hold the order till the product arrives. If we are missing an item, but that item won't arrive in time for your order to ship the same week, we will contact you with more information and options.
Returns or Damaged Product
We accept returns on any unopened, non-perishable products. You will responsible for covering the shipping costs to send the product back to us. Please contact us if you need to do this.
We can not accept returns on items based on taste. If you have never tried something, please do not purchase 50 of that item assuming it will be good. Everyone has different tastes which is why we have such a large selection. Start with one or two and see whether you enjoy it.
When shipping perishable products problems sometimes occur with the condition of the product. If you are not satisfied with your order please contact us via the "Ask a Question" button on the order history page or by responding to your "order confirmation email" in regards to returns or product damaged during shipping. We will be more than willing to assist you in reconciling the situation.
Shipping Chocolate
We do not accept returns on melted candy or chocolate. We can never guarantee that these items will not melt or bloom (white residue formed after melting). Bloom does not affect the flavor or quality of the chocolate.
Incorrect Delivery Address
If an incorrect delivery address is entered at checkout, the customer is responsible for any rerouting charges or damaged product that results.
Fedex Shipping
FedEx Home Delivery business days are Tuesday through Saturday (excluding holidays).
Example: A package shipped via FedEx Ground on Monday with a transit schedule of 2 business days, (not including the day the package is shipped) would be expected for delivery on Wednesday. A package shipped on Friday with a 2-day transit schedule would be expected for delivery the following Tuesday.
