Abstract
A system includes a database having a plurality of purchasable items. The system also includes an order server programmed to display a website including the purchasable items to a customer via a customer device and allow the customer to select the purchasable items for purchase. The selected items are added to an online order, and a request to complete the order is received from the customer device. A selection of a pick-up time for the customer to retrieve the order at a store is received. The online order and the selected pick-up time are transmitted to an order assembly server. The order assembly server is configured to begin assembling the selected purchasable items for pick-up at the store, receive a selection of an additional purchasable item to add to the selected pick-up time, and assemble the order and the additional purchasable item for pick-up at the selected pickup time.
