Australia Post bits & Bobs

Post by BruceS »

Well I don't usually promote businesses much online.... rather let them do it themselves!!!

Just received a letter (probably like most of you?) that has a little bonus for us oldies.
The main gist of the letter is in regards to "Your new digital mailbox" which I'll investigate in a minute.
www.digitalmailbox.com.au

The main benefit is for anyone holding a concession card or maybe even a pension card? (please advise?)
Entitled persons need to go to any Australia Post Retail Outlet and (ask for) register for your free MyPost Concession Account
Entitles you to a free booklet of 5 concession stamps upon registration & access to 50 concession stamps a year and "a range of other benefits".

Been there - done that as they say.

Well, Catriana has.

You end up getting stamps for 60c instead of 70c as they now are...
