Temporary suspension of Parcel Post collections in NSW, ACT & VIC  


As you know, across the country we are all managing the sustained challenges of the COVID pandemic. With two of our largest States and some 15 million people in lockdown, the fluctuations in customer online shopping have significantly increased.

We are also dealing with the impacts of the Delta strain and in any given day, we have close to 500 people out of our workforce as they follow necessary self-isolation and testing before clearance back to work.

This is putting increased pressure on our network like nothing we have experienced before, as we manage staff shortages, temporary facility closures, and parcel volumes as high as Christmas peak period.

To help us clear excess parcel volumes in NSW, ACT and VIC due to these impacts, we will be suspending customer collections in these areas.

All Parcel Post collections from customers and merchants in NSW, ACT and VIC will be paused from 7am Saturday 4 September until 7am Tuesday 7 September.

This may affect postage over the coming week

July 2021’s game

Posted on by

July’s game is now in play. But … the game has changed.

You are no longer looking for a product. A random image with sparklers, fireworks etc and wording along the lines of winner or congratulations is hidden somewhere in the website. I state again. Somewhere in the website. It is attached to a product.

To claim the prize you have to add that product to your cart along with ANOTHER item that you plan to purchase and go through checkout successfully. Please choose bank transfer as your payment method as we realise you probably don’t want the product that the prize is attached to. Janet will alter your invoice accordingly. When you place your order through checkout please advise Janet in the notes section that you’ve successfully found the prize.

The first person to add this product to their shopping cart with ANOTHER item and go through checkout successfully wins a credit on their account of $30.

Please remember that just because it’s in your cart doesn’t mean it’s yours! It’s the first person to go through checkout whilst purchasing at least one other item. Once the item has been successfully found and purchased through checkout the image will be removed from that product and will appear somewhere else the following month. As Maggie is going to be absent for a portion of this month the prize may have already been claimed, but still showing on the website. If this is the case Janet will advise you accordingly and Maggie will remove it as soon as she is able to.

1. You HAVE to go through checkout successfully to be entitled to the $30 voucher. Just adding it to your cart is not enough.
2. Other people can also have it in their cart. It is the first person through checkout successfully.
3. You are NOT expected to have to pay for the item the winning image is attached to. Remember to choose pay by bank transfer and Janet will make an adjustment to your invoice, removing that product.
4. If you haven’t purchased an item that you’re intending to pay for then your order will be cancelled and the winning image will be again added to the website in a different location.
5. This does not affect the current vouchers given away monthly on the JK’s Cross Stitch Supplies Facebook Chat Page. They will remain in place. This is only for the website.
6. No person can claim the prize more than once in a 12 month period.
7. If the prize isn’t found during the current month it will roll over to the next month until it is found.
