FAQ
How long will it take for my gifts to arrive?
During normal times, we post orders from Sydney CBD on the next business day after the order is received. Typical Australia Post timeframes apply. If you live in a regional area or Western Australia, we have found that delivery from Sydney can take longer than they estimate, and disruptions due to weather events are possible anywhere in an Australian summer, so please plan early.
With postal delays in the leadup to Christmas, the last date to order gift cards by regular mail to arrive before Christmas is Sunday 6 December 2026.
For orders beyond that date, please add at least a $10 donation for Express Post during checkout to ensure delivery before Christmas, although actual delivery date is still subject to Australia Post capacity.
You can also choose print-at-home gift cards or send e-cards from our website at any time!
Is postage free?
YES! Postage is free for all Everything in Common orders. However, you can choose to make an additional donation to cover the cost of postage at the checkout. It is a big help.
Please order early to ensure yor order arrives in time by regular post.

We take inspiration from the radical generosity of the early Christian communities described in Acts 2:44-45:
"All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need."
