Why don't I see any advertised specials on the site on the weekend?
Your weekly advertised online flyer items run each Monday through Friday. If you log in on Monday, you will see the same specials until Friday's 11:00am order cut-off time. Specials don't show over the weekend because the special prices would no longer register when processed on Monday morning. This way you can have confidence that your total is accurate when you check out.

What types of payment do you accept?
You can pay by at your door by Debit card, Visa or MasterCard. For security, we do not store any credit card information on this site. To prevent our delivery people from becoming targets, we can't accept or carry cash for deliveries.

What time should I place an order?
Your online store is open 24 hours a day – you can place an order after work the night before, and we'll have your order ready for the next day! For Same-day delivery, place your order by 11:00am Monday through Friday. Limited delivery times are available, so order early!

How does it work if I don't have a Q-Card No.?
When you go to check out, it the system will detect that you haven’t entered a card. You will have three options:
1) I don’t have a Q-Card (which allows you to receive one online when you check out)
2) I have a Q-Card, but I don’t have the number available. (allows you to checkout without a Q-card number)
3) I have a Q-Card and I have the number with me (allows you to enter your Q-Card Number)

How can I save time when shopping online?
The best single piece of advice we can offer for saving time is using the Quicklist feature. Check the box next to any items that you order regularly, and you can call them up instantly each time you log in.

Should I tip my delivery person?
There is no need to feel obligated to offer a tip, as our delivery people are discouraged from accepting gratuities. QF personnel do not rely on tips for their existence. If you think your delivery person deserves extra recognition, please e-mail us and we'll pass your comments along.
