Site URL: http://pieconicny.com Back with another shipping question... How do I get optimization with UPS? I only offer 2nd day air via UPS as my bakery product is perishable. We are located in NY's Hudson Valley 40 minutes south of Albany, NY. This issue impacts any customer that is close enough to our bakery to receive their product the next day irrespective of the UPS service level. Example, someone in NYC orders a pie and pays for 2nd day air as this is the only option I offer. They get charged the UPS 2nd day air charge, but a Ground service level also arrives the next day due to proximity so the customer has therefore paid a lot more than they would have if Ground had been an option. I can't get anyone in UPS on the line to discuss this with. Ideas? Thoughts? Thank you!

Site URL: http://pieconicny.com Hello All... I have a squarespace site for my bricks & mortar bakery. I am in the process of setting up 2 stores on my site, one for local pick-up where customers that live locally can order and pick up an item from my bakery directly. The other store will be "shop to ship" so these products are for national shipping only via UPS. What I cannot figure out is how to offer the pick-up option only in the local store and the shipping option only in the "shop to ship" store. The shop to ship store has the handling part of the shipping cost included in the product cost which is why I set-up 2 different stores. Thank you!
