New Zealanders are being asked to refrain from making online purchases that are non-essential.

 

Freight companies are being swamped with demand and it means that people waiting protracted periods for essential items that they do genuinely need.

The key message is to think twice before you buy or sell goods online.

Think, is it essential to do right now? Or can it wait?

It is not fair for people to miss out on things they really need to get by because NZ Post is so busy shipping so many wish-list goods.

Thanks for caring, Wairarapa!
