Run by Mail Call Couriers, Want It Now is a service partnered with about 40 different Australian online retailers in Sydney and Melbourne. As its name suggests, it offers same-day delivery of products purchased online. As you can imagine, this can be an exceptionally useful service in certain circumstances.
Of course, the service does come at a price, which is a premium on the delivery charges. How big that premium is will depend on the retailer you’re shopping with, but typically should be around the $10-$15 mark.
For that extra money though, you do get the ability to track your delivery using a dedicated iOS, Android or BlackBerry app, and can receive a text message when the delivery is about 20 minutes away.
It’s not a service you’ll use every day, but for the times that you (or someone you know) need it, it’ll be worth every cent.
