lings and sons delivery pick up

We are arriving in Aruba this Thursday at 2:50pm and taking a cab with Bully for a quick grocery stop and off to our hotel. I wanted to order my groceries online and have them ready for pick up at ling and sons, but it looks like you can only pick up until 4:00pm. I am hoping we will be there by 4:00pm, but what if we are later...do they put the groceries back or is it ok if we get there at 4:15pm for example?
Also should we buy or beer and vodka there or at the duty free shop at airport?
Thanks

Haven't actually tried this, but I would think if you contacted the store, let them know your flight information and I am sure they would let you pick-up the groceries a little late (as long as the store is still open).

Not sure of your relationship with Bully (or the types of groceries), but perhaps he could pickup the groceries for you on the way to pick you up? You could then pay him and provide a nice tip!

HI, you may want to contact Ling and Sons and see if they can deliver the day before you arrive. Not sure where you are staying, but if the hotel will accept deliveries on your behalf they could hold items for you. We are staying at the Hyatt and Ling and Sons will be closed the day we arrive due to holiday. They said they would deliver to Hyatt before our arrival date if we arranged with Hyatt. I contacted Hyatt and they were more than happy to sign for an early delivery. Worth a try. Of course, delivery will be pre paid for.
