There is no minimum order amount. You can purchase as little as a single item. However, orders of

$49.99 or more

(after discounts, under 10 lbs) qualify for free standard shipping via USPS to the lower 48 states, so it is a great time to stock up on your favorites.

Not always. Some orders may ship from different fulfillment centers and arrive in multiple shipments via different carriers. You will receive separate tracking notifications for each shipment. If part of your order is on back order, we will ship the available items first and send the rest when they become available -- at no additional shipping charge to you.

Yes! We offer

free standard shipping on orders of $49.99 or more

(after discounts) that weigh under 10 lbs, shipped via USPS to the 48 contiguous US states. Orders over 10 lbs or below the $49.99 threshold will have shipping rates calculated at checkout based on weight and destination.

We ship via USPS and UPS (typically UPS SurePost or UPS Ground). Some UPS SurePost shipments are handed off to USPS for the final leg of delivery, which may add a slight delay during the transition. The carrier is selected based on weight, dimensions, and destination.

Most in-stock items ship within 1-2 business days. Transit times depend on your location and selected shipping method. Standard USPS delivery typically takes 3-7 business days. UPS Ground is generally 3-5 business days. Expedited options, where available, are shown at checkout.

If any item in your order is temporarily out of stock, we will ship the available items first and send the remaining items in a separate shipment at no additional shipping charge.

We ship to the 48 contiguous United States. We currently do not ship to Alaska, Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Northern Mariana Islands, Palau, Puerto Rico, or the US Virgin Islands.

We are aware of the demand for international shipping and are working hard on expanding our shipping reach. Stay tuned for updates!

When a tracking number is provided by the shipping carrier, we will update your order with the tracking information and send you an email notification. You can also view tracking information in Order History within your account.

Please note that some orders shipped via USPS First Class may not include tracking numbers.

We accept returns within 60 calendar days of your purchase date. Items must be in their original condition as received and undamaged.
