Food Safety

Payless Daily ensures food safety through facilities upkeep, associate training, and product management.

Facilities upkeep

  • We have sanitation schedules for all facilities and equipment.
  • We have our stores regularly inspected by local and federal agencies and 3rd party food safety auditors.

Associate training

We train our Personal Shoppers to:

  • Understand food safety so that you get the freshest food.
  • Maintain standards for hygiene, cleanliness, and proper bagging.
  • Bag raw proteins in meat bags to prevent cross-contamination and bag chemicals separately from all foods.
  • Handle hot and cold food properly by ensuring it stays at the right temperature until you arrive to pick up your order or it’s delivered to your home.

Product management

For recalled products, we:

  • Work quickly to block the item from selling.
  • Remove it from our store’s shelves (including pickup & delivery).

Food safety tips

To keep your food fresh:

  • Place all chilled or frozen products in the refrigerator or freezer as soon as possible.
  • Place raw meat and seafood on the bottom shelf, avoiding direct contact with ready-to-eat foods.
  • Always wash whole produce thoroughly before you eat it.

Best by dates

  • Best If Used By – this date indicates when the item is at peak quality (as suggested by the product supplier/manufacturer). While it is not an expiration date, it’s a good indication of whether the product is fresh.
  • Use By or Freeze By – this date indicates a product that is time- or temperature-sensitive. You should either use or place the product in your freezer by this date. 

Fresh-sliced deli labels

  • You may see today’s date on a fresh-sliced deli meat or cheese item. What you’re seeing is not an expiration date. Your label shows the day we sliced your meat or cheese.
  • Freshly cut, refrigerated deli meat will remain fresh for about 6 days. Cheese will remain safe to consume for 2-3 weeks.

Product or order concerns

  • If you have an issue with a specific order:
    1. Go to https://paylessdailyonline.com/orders.
    2. Find the order you in your order history.
    3. Select View Details.
    4. From there, you can select Need Help, Start a Return, or Give Feedback.
