The average lead time required for pickup here has been 2-3 full days, with some occasions having no available delivery in a 7-day window.

No other store in the area comes close to that (and I'm pretty sure we've done delivery from virtually every chain here at some point).

We've gotten good about planning a week ahead for the pick-up. You can add to the order up to the night before, so as long as we get a delivery slot, we can make the actual order closer to the pickup.
