A wide variety of Harmons top selling products have been selected for the online customer ordering experience. These include Harmons fresh prepared Deli, Bakery, Meat and Produce items as well as a sizeable number of our center store items. All items can be added to your online shopping cart, and below are further details on the ordering process. Not every Harmons location offers the pickup service, but Harmons endeavors to have this service as available as possible at our many locations. For every Harmons location the online platform can be used to create multiple shopping carts and view our current Weekly advertised pricing. Submission of an order by a customer is an offer of purchase to Harmons for items and/or services. It is within our discretion to accept or deny the order. Upon acceptance of the order Harmons will charge the customer for the products and services rendered. Customers have the right to cancel an order using Harmons online ordering platform. During the order customers will receive notification from Harmons on the status of their order, it is up to the customer how they receive that notification. Communication back to the customer is dependent on the process in which communication occurs. There are preset channels and pathways of communication on orders, anything outside of these channels may not be received by Harmons personnel. Minimums and other restrictions may apply on the order and it is the customers right to refuse the service.

Fees 

There may be applicable processing fees per order, these fees will be detailed as a line item on the receipt and in the shopping cart. All fees will be charged to the credit card on file upon completion of the order.

Pick Up Time Slots 

For Harmons locations that offer customer pick up service, a time slots picker will be available as a shopping cart is completed. This allows customers to assign an available pick up time slot that is convenient for them. These time slots will fill up in the most popular times of day, but orders can be placed days in advance to accommodate customers. Locations not offering order pickup service will not have the time slot module activated. As Harmons begins to pick customer orders there will be notification to the customer. This will act as a reminder to the customer of the activity they requested. Orders can be cancelled prior to the time that the order is picked by Harmons store personnel. Notification will be sent to the customer when the order picking begins by Harmons store personnel.

Controlled Items 

Persons not of legal age to order controlled items shall refrain from placing these items in their shopping cart for a transaction. Any item requiring a condition for purchase will require identification prior to completion and delivery of the order (i.e. alcohol). Restricted items requiring an age of 18 or 21 years of age must accompany a valid form of identification to complete the transaction. It is allowed for customers to send someone to pick up their order, but that person must meet the age requirement. Any item that fails the age requirement of the person picking up the order can be removed from the order. Completion of controlled items in a transaction are at the discretion of the Harmons personnel following Harmons rules. 

Rights on Orders

Orders placed online are accepted by Harmons after verification processes have occurred. The receipt of a confirmation is not considered complete acceptance of an order. Upon discovery of issues with information Harmons reserves the right to cancel an order request without any obligation on either side. Additionally, Harmons will address requests that have high order quantities with the customer, and has the right of refusal. 

Abandoned Orders

Abandoned Orders are those orders that are not picked up by end of day which is one hour after the last pick up time of the day. Our personnel will attempt to reach out to the customer, and if there is no response the product will be restocked and the transaction will be cancelled. After an order has been cancelled, the customer will need to create a new order and select another time to complete their desired transaction

Below are details related to Harmons goods that our customers will find in our online experience. These details describe how Harmons interrelates with customers in the selection and production of options that we provide. It is important to think of Harmons eShop as as tore, at times when you shop there maybe products available, or at times product maybe out of stock. Our online platform is not tied to Harmons Inventory at a store, so much like shopping the physical store items at times can be out of stock. We strive to provide the be stand most thorough selection to all of our customers.

Availability of Goods

Each Harmons location has its own mix of products that are represented online. Much like the in-store experience items are at times out of stock, substitution products will be suggested to the customer unless they have opted to not have alternative products considered.

Perishable Goods

In selecting perishable items, Harmons will always select to the freshest highest quality items. For each item customers have a comment area where specifications can be documented to guide the picking process. Due to market conditions and availability of products, the overall quality might vary as well as on hand quantities to fulfill an order. There may be times that Harmons may need to limit or modify the items requested.

Substitution of goods

As a primary goal, Harmons will always seek to fulfill every order with the exact items requested by our customers. However, in instances where the requested items are not available, Harmons will offer a substitute equivalent item to fulfill the request. Within the Harmons eShop customers can specify no substitution for an item on the order, or customers can state that substitutions are desired. A Harmons eShop associate will reach out to the customer for approval of substitute products prior to order completion. Customers who authorize substitutions but are unhappy with the items substituted can contact their Harmons store for a resolution.

Specialty goods

Certain goods purchased have their own set of rules and restrictions that might not be apparent on the Harmons website. Some examples include our floral arrangements that require delivery addresses and our gift cards with special restrictions documented on the cards themselves. Please be aware of special governing restrictions for certain products, services and offerings. Terms and conditions can be specific to the items being purchased. The terms and conditions of the items or services being purchased override other terms and conditions.

Receipt of goods

At each Harmons location you will find a clearly marked area to pick up your online goods, these goods have been hand selected for you by one of our talented personal shoppers.To reduce the risk of fraudulent activity on your account, Harmons will verify picture ID for anyone picking up an order. It is important to communicate to Harmons if there have been alternative plans on who is going to pick up your order so we can assure a good experience.For any controlled item, such as alcohol, those items can only be picked up by someone of the correct age for that controlled item.Harmons cannot release controlled goods to someone who does not meet the correct age criteria. Please take note of this as you select and authorize someone to pick up your order. Through some type of electronic communication that is documented, such as email or text or on the online platform, we ask that persons sent to pick up an order are verified. This allows protection for both Harmons and the customer to reduce the risk of fraud on the account and that we provide the highest level of service.

All pricing that customers receive are adjusted and based upon the date and time of pickup. Cart totals are subject to change depending on the time of cart creation versus the time of order completion. It is up to the customer to be aware of the date/time that pricing and related promotions end that might impact the total cost of their cart. Everything in the Harmons platform is measured by United States dollars as a unit of measure, rates can be subject to change and subject to applicable taxes. Prices and tax rates are calculated on the online cart but this may not be the final amount charged as calculations will be made upon final pick up of the order.

Advertised/Promoted

Advertised prices seen on a Harmons flyer, online promotions, sale prices or manufacturer promotions have defined terms and time frames which are detailed for each of the products. Those products must be ordered and picked up within that promotions timeline. Any promotion that halted prior to the completion of the transaction cannot be honored. It is the requirement of the customer to monitor these promotions and finalize the purchase and pickup prior to the promotion end date.

Certain Harmons promotions are in store only, it is the responsibility of the customer to read the terms and conditions of the advertisement. Those types of in store purchases are not available in an eShop pick up order.

Additionally, certain promotions are for only specific stores and are not transferrable between stores. If an item is added to a list for one store and the store preference changes in the online version, you will be notified that the items on your list will not completely transfer as your store preference changes. Please take care and be aware of the details for Harmons promotions and related offers.

Stores are not required to accept online promotions in store, nor are in store promotions required to be accepted online. Pricing as shown between stores online are not required to be honored from store to store.

Upon recognition of an incorrectly assigned price or promotion, Harmons retains right of refusal in honoring that price or to cancel that item from an order regardless if that order has been previously confirmed.

By Weight

Some items are sold by weight (pound/cut), other items are packaged or sold individually as well. For online purchasing, these items are based upon an average weight that has been estimated, and changes from time to time depending on market conditions. Please note that final prices will be based upon what is available to be picked in the department for your order. This price will be calculated and documented upon completion and pickup of the order assuring that customers pay the actual price for the product received.

Coupons

Coupons can be clipped online for products that Harmons offers using our online loyalty site, Foodie Club. Physical coupons cannot be used for online orders. Online coupons used when products are ordered online will be reflected in the total at time of purchase and savings will be reflected on the receipt.

Each coupon shall comply with the terms and conditions of that coupon. Harmons reserves the right with no advanced notice to modify our coupon policies.

There may be instance beyond the control of Harmons that delays the completion and fulfillment of customer orders. In these instances, Harmons will attempt to reach out to customers to explain the issue and reschedule for a time convenient to our customers.

Any feedback is a top priority for attention and resolution, please reach out by phone to the Harmons store where you placed your eShop order. Details of your order will be best handled at the store where your order originated. For the highest level of support on eShop orders, please contact the store directly and ask for the eShop or store manager. Have the specific details about the order you placed on eShop so it can be referenced ready before you call. And please note that on each eShop order completed, an email summary was sent to your Harmons Foodie email address.

When Harmons receives feedback related to an eShop order it is our policy to review, comment or make any reasonable concessions. For our eShop platform Harmons can adjust these online orders that have been placed and provide restitution. Whenever situations such as damaged items, pricing issues, coupon/discount application are felt to be incorrect these can be reviewed as well. Contacting Harmons online or through our eShop applications limits our ability to provide an efficient solution, so customers are asked to reach out to the store with a phone call.

A right to perform an investigation or determine the best course of action when there are complaints is reserved by Harmons to assure a high level of service is provided. Our store managers will be available to rectify any issues with an eShop order.

Each customer using Harmons online platform to purchase products is expected to use a credit card online. For each order placed, Harmons is granted the right to reserve an amount of 115% of the order total to allow for customer changes in the items requested as well as variations in the items being purchased, such as weighted items. This amount will be on credit card hold until the purchase is completed and picked up or the purchase is cancelled. Customers will only be charged for the exact amount required upon completion of purchase.

While cards are being authorized for each order, they must have an available balance to cover the cost of the order, otherwise the transaction will be declined. Upon approval of the balance, customers will be able to reserve a convenient timeslot for pickup of the order. Each customer agrees to payment upon pickup of the goods that were ordered and this completes the transaction.

These payments are agreed to for any person that the card holder has provided access to their online Harmons account using the correct credentials including friends and family. Customers have the right to modify the access password at any time to their secure Harmons account.

Information related to credit cards is secured through our credit card provider and none of this information is stored by Harmons.

Authorization

At times Harmons may need to do a re-authorization of a credit card, at that time a submission for the original amount will be sent to the credit card provider. If the reauthorization fails due to issues with the card, Harmons will attempt to contact the customer. If an order does process and funds fail to transfer to Harmons, the right to seek collection of funds is a right that Harmons reserves. This may lead to termination of service with a customer as well as the customer being liable for costs including attorney fees and collections costs incurred.
