FAQs

No! We store all of our products in our UK based warehouse based in the market town of Poole in Dorset. We bring over the widest range of American Soda, Candy and Groceries for both lovers of American food and drink, and the expats we serve nationwide.

That depends. If your order is placed before 8 am, we will do our utmost to ship it the very same day. Aside from this, your order will usually be dispatched the next working day after it is placed, but it may take us up to 3 working days to dispatch your order during busier periods. If you need your order urgently for an event or occasion, please call us as soon as the order is placed (07454155955).

For our customers in the UK, Royal Mail Tracked 48 is a 2 working day tracked service and DPD is a next working day tracked service.

Royal Mail orders can only be up to 1.5kg in weight. If you exceed this weight, you’ll have to jump up to DPD, which supports orders up to a whopping 30kg. Example delivery times are as follows:

Royal Mail Tracked 48 (2 working day)
Order Dispatched Monday -> Delivery Wednesday
Order Dispatched Thursday -> Delivery Monday
Order Dispatched Friday -> Delivery Tuesday

DPD Express (next working day)
Order Dispatched Monday -> Delivery Tuesday
Order Dispatched Thursday -> Delivery Friday
Order Dispatched Friday -> Delivery Monday

Yes! We do offer free next day delivery within mainland* UK, when your order is packed with over £50 of tasty American goodies! Our free shipping offer is non-exclusive of VAT, so if there are items in your basket that have VAT included in the price, the VAT amount won’t count towards the £50 total needed. It therefore needs to be your sub-total (the total excluding VAT) that exceeds £50. Once it exceeds £50, free delivery is automatically offered at the delivery method stage during check out. If your order is so huge that it needs to be packed into multiple parcels (we can only send up to 28kg of goods in one parcel) then we will cover 2 parcels free of charge, but beyond this, we may ask you to pay £5.00 per additional parcel.
*Mainland UK is defined as England, Scotland and Wales, excluding Scottish Highlands & Islands, Northern Ireland, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Scilly Isles.

As standard, no. DPD can deliver on a Saturday, but this comes with a surcharge on top of our standard delivery prices which will need to be paid (£4 per parcel). If you can only accept delivery on a Saturday, please get in touch with our customer service team, who should be able to assist in arranging this. Royal Mail Tracked 48 doesn’t include Saturday deliveries, but there is a chance they may deliver on a Saturday at their own discretion.

All of our products are marked with a best before date. A best before date is about quality, not safety. When the date has passed, it doesn’t mean that the food will be harmful, but it might begin to lose it’s flavour and texture. The majority of our products, especially products like candy, gum, tinned groceries, usually have a long best before date on them (6 months +). Other products like crisps, cakes, cereals may have a shorter best before date on them. We carry out regular date checks on our stock, and any items with a best before date of less than a month are often noted and moved to our Clearance Zone at a reduced price. If you’re planning to buy for a particular event in the future, or simply want to know the best before dates on items before purchasing them, just ask! We will be more than happy to let you know the best before dates on any of our products before you buy them. You can get in touch with us via e-mail ([email protected]), on Facebook (@AmericanoGoodies) or on the phone (07454155955).

Whilst we encourage fund raising for a good cause, due to the large volume of charitable requests we receive every day, we are unfortunately not in a position to support them all! For that reason, we have decided that as a company we would like to support a nominated charity of our own, rather than to pick and choose between the many good causes we are asked to contribute to on a daily basis. We wish you the best of luck with your charitable endeavours, and we hope they are great success!

Every request we get, we log with our buyer. Should there be significant demand for a product, we’ll then try to find it and see if we can import it. If that’s a yes, then we’ll get a small supply in order to ‘test the market’. Should it prove to be popular enough, we’ll then source more and it will become a regular fixture amongst our product list. Please don’t be afraid to ask for something you want – we want to know what you’d like to see us stock and if you don’t ask, you don’t get! We can’t promise to get everything, but where we can, we will!

We may have more! We order our stock from our wholesale warehouse daily. It is worth asking if we can make more stock available, because we may run low on our retail website, but may have several cases available in our wholesale warehouse that can be transferred.
