If I allow a substitute, how does this work?

At the checkout page you can allow substitutes for any or all of the items in your order. Allowing a substitute means our online team will do their best to select an appropriate substitute if your chosen item is not available at time of picking your order.  For example, if you select Lewis Road blue top milk and it is out of stock, if you allow a substitute our team would select another blue top milk for your order. We encourage you to leave notes on items you have allowed for substitutes as this helps our online team to choose an alternative.
