What does 'Qualifying Order' mean in regards to shipping?

When we say “Qualified Orders’ in relation to any of our Free Shipping promotions we mean not all orders can receive the free shipping. To be a ‘Qualified Order’ for Free Shipping promotions your order must:

Include products that can ship via Standard Shipping to your location – Orders that cannot be sent via Standard do not qualify for the Free Shipping promotions. A discount on expedited methods may be applied.
Not all products can be shipped to all locations via Standard Shipping. This is the case where Standard Shipping will take longer than we permit in effort to ensure you receive your products at their freshest.
The shipping service available for our products may change throughout the year. As temperatures rise or fall, shipping services may change for our more heat sensitive products.
Some locations in our delivery area cannot receive Ground service.

Where Standard Shipping can't deliver your order as quickly as we require, or where Standard Shipping is not available for your location, we do not display Standard as a shipping option in the checkout process. You must enter the promotion code for the Free Shipping offer during the checkout process. – Orders where the promo code is not supplied at checkout do not qualify for the Free Shipping promotions.
