There's a thread above this one where we've been discussing this. Sounds like they're still experiencing delays.
That in and of itself is a plus. FedEx and I do not get along.They've changed from FedEx to UPS for shipping since I last ordered. I ordered on Saturday of the holiday weekend and they had my order shipped out on Wednesday, so not too bad.
Where did you get your discount code? I got the same email and it says "use your personal dicount code", yeah no clue where that is

9:45 this morning.When did you 2 get these emails?
Fed-Ex home delivery was great. Faster & no dinged boxes & such. I'll use UPS,but I'm not crazy about it.
Don't order anything time sensitive from Midwest. I had a brew day planned for Saturday and ordered my grains from them. They still haven't shipped so I'm moving on to plan B and hitting my LHBS after work on Friday. Prices are good, but don't expect anything for at least 2 weeks after ordering.
Dammit ! And I just ordered my hop head double IPA yesterday...........

Yes, It was, but I like to wait and do those in the fall, but I'm sure it's a good kit for anytime of year !!..........
Has anyone ordered from them lately - I know they were having some shipping issues not too long ago, was just wondering if they'd been settled yet.
Just got a 20% off coupon emailed to me, good for the next 3 days, so I might put in an order tonight. I don't have a brew day scheduled (starting a hard cider this week), so any shipping delays won't be the end of the world, I just like to know about them up front.
Working 45+ hours a week, with a 60 min round trip commute, plus fire department duties, church commitments, all while remodeling my basement...hasn't left much time for stuff like brewing -- plus the basement remodel hasn't left me with a place I really want to set a fermenter for a month. Hopefully that will change soon!I want to know why you don't have a brew day scheduled.
midwestsupplies said:It is true. Our Instore pick-up process has been suspended. I am sorry that you are disappointed with that move. The reason we had to suspend it, was due to our inventory control. With our warehouse move, we don't always have enough inventory on hand at the store for large orders or even some of the smaller ones. Customers would come in for their order, and then be disappointed that we didn't have everything that they were looking for. The program isn't gone forever, but we are trying to find a way to offer it that will meet the expectations for customers.
We are glad that we could help with your brewing for three years, and I am sorry that this issue is a breaking point. Being that you have gift cards, and know what you want, I am sure we can come up with a solution. It will probably involve "shipping" the item to the store, which we wouldn't charge you for. We will also want your brothers phone number, so we can call him when everything is ready to pick-up and go.
Please forgive us for not having a process in place for these special requests, as the change is very recent. In the meantime, keep brewing and we are glad you are coming home soon.
Cheers,
The crew @ Midwest
PS.
I am going to give Justin a rundown of your circumstances. If you call 1-888-449-2739 and speak with him, he can take care of the order with the workaround.
I noticed I had a post deleted today from this one. Did I do something wrong? Not that I am looking for trouble or want to take issue with anybody, but I wonder what was it about what I posted that was so wrong? I thought this post was merged a few weeks ago to just be a general Midwest forum where all comments were acceptable (as long as not nasty) and not just about poor shipping experiences? Wasn't that the case a few weeks ago or am I mistaken?
