  COVID SAFE PLAN

  We’ve implemented the following measures to help you shop safely in-store. We will review and adapt these in-store measures as the environment evolves. 
  
  Mandatory QR code check-in

  Some states have mandated QR code check-ins via the official Government App. Please refer to your Local State Government for more information (Australia.gov.au).
  
  Mandatory face coverings in-store 

  Some states have introduced mandatory mask-wearing indoors. Please refer to your Local State Government for more information (Australia.gov.au).
  
  Maintain 1.5 metres apart from each other where possible

  Social distancing tape will be placed around our floors and seating areas. These can be found throughout the store as reminders, as well as areas where you may be required to queue.
  
  Use EFTPOS/Paywave/Tap n Go services available

  We strongly encourage you to use your card or phone to tap and pay instead of cash, whenever possible.

• I only received one item, where is the rest?

  Only received part of your order?
  

  If you have ordered a few items, we may need to fulfil your order from multiple locations. This means we will pack and ship your items separately and therefore some items may arrive at a later date, even though you ordered everything together. We call this a split order. 

   

  How do I track the rest of my order?

  If your order has been split, you will receive an email with your tracking details for each separate delivery.

  Please note: You won't receive both tracking numbers at the same time as they will be dispatched separately, from different locations, which means different dispatch times. 

   

  If your order arrives and you're missing one or more items, we recommend double checking your emails to see if you've received any additional tracking numbers. If not, feel free to contact our Customer Experience Team below and we can provide you with tracking updates.
