Weighed Items: Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my order show an estimated price?

Items sold by weight (like produce, meat, and deli) show an estimated price based on typical weights, as the exact weight (and final price) isn't known until your order is packed. You can also view the unit price (price per unit of weight) to see how the final price will be calculated. To cover potential weight variations, a temporary buffer of each estimated item price applies. You can view the total buffer under your “reserved for order adjustments” line item.

Once your order is packed, your final total is updated to reflect exact weights. Check out "How can I see the final weight and price of my items?" for more info on how to view this.

You only pay for the exact weight of what’s delivered, and never more than your estimated total. For more info on how and when you're charged, take a look at "How and when will I be charged?"

How and when will I be charged?

This depends on your chosen payment method. For more info on accepted payment methods, take a look at “What payment methods can I use?”.

If your payment method supports a temporary hold (e.g. credit or debit card):

When you place your order: We place a temporary hold on your payment method for the estimated total (including the buffer) which is the maximum you will ever be charged. You are not charged yet.

Once your order is picked: The store calculates your final total based on the actual item weights. If this final total is less than your estimated total, you are charged only that lower amount. The temporary hold is then automatically released.

If your payment method does not support a temporary hold and is charged immediately at checkout (e.g. PayU, Cash):

When you place your order: You are charged the estimated total (including the buffer) upfront.

After picking: The store calculates your final total based on the actual item weights. If this final total is less than your estimated total, the difference will be automatically refunded to you within 3–5 working days.

Check out "How can I see the final weight and price of my items?" for more info on how to track the final weight and price adjustments.

Please note: Since weighed items must be delivered, collection is unavailable.

What happens if my order is cancelled?

This depends on how you were charged when you placed your order.

If a temporary hold was placed: It will be released automatically, and you will not be charged.

If you were charged upfront: You will receive a full refund within 3–5 working days.

How can I see the final weight and price of my weighed items?

You can track your weighed items at every stage of your order.

Before picking: You'll see estimated item weights (e.g., "Approx. 400 g") and prices, as well as the unit price, across your order journey, checkout, order details, and your receipt. You’ll also see notes explaining the temporary buffer and potential price variations..

After picking: Once your items are packed, your receipt and order details will update to show the estimated weight alongside the final weight, the adjusted price for each item, and your final Total Paid.

Out-of-stock items: If any items are unavailable, they are listed separately so you can easily distinguish them from the weight adjustments for the items you received.
