How to Shop Lifestyle and Gifts

1

Browse Local Shops

Tap Lifestyle & Gifts in the Resquash category browser or search for a specific type of store (e.g., “florist,” “candle shop,” or “vintage boutique”). Scroll through shop profiles to view their featured products, store photos, and customer ratings.
2

Ask About Product Availability

Tap Message to open a chat with the merchant. Ask about specific items, current inventory, colors, sizes, or anything else you need to know before buying. Merchants typically respond quickly during business hours.
3

Complete Your Purchase

Once you’ve found what you want, confirm the item, quantity, and price in the chat, then pay securely through Resquash. Your receipt will appear in the Orders tab.
4

Arrange Pickup or Delivery

Choose whether you’d like to pick up your purchase in store or have it delivered to your address. Many merchants on Resquash offer same-day pickup and same-day local delivery — confirm the option and timing directly in chat.

​
Same-Day Pickup and Delivery

One of the biggest advantages of shopping local through Resquash is speed. Many merchants can have your order ready for in-store pickup within hours, and some offer same-day delivery for items purchased before a cutoff time. Ask the merchant in chat what their same-day options look like — you may be surprised how quickly you can get something special without waiting for a shipping carrier.
Don’t hesitate to ask merchants about gift wrapping, personalized messages, or custom engravings via chat. Many local shops are happy to add a personal touch that big retailers simply can’t offer. Just mention it early so they have enough time to prepare your order beautifully.
