It's the holiday season and Parcel Pete’s jetted off to the gorgeous Italy for a week for a bit of relaxation as well as delivering some of your parcels in Italy too!
Here at ipostparcels.com, we’ve had Parcel Pete keeping us up to date with his journey with pictures of the different parts of Italy he’s been visiting.
Competition:
So we’ve put together a little Italian competition seeing as though Parcel Pete’s over there at the mo!
It’s our usual competition where we ask you to retweet, like and share our posts on Twitter and Facebook. This time round we’ll also be posting up snaps of Parcel Pete on holiday so you have to guess exactly which part of Italy he’s in.
The more you RT/Like/Share and answer the q’s correctly the more chances you have of winning £50’s worth of yummy Jamie’s Italian Restaurant vouchers.
Jamie Oliver’s Special Delivery:
You may be thinking why did Parcel Pete decide to visit Italy? Well, not only do we ship parcels to Italy but we also recently made some special deliveries to the Jamie’s Italian restaurants across the UK, which gave him the taste for wanting more of the Italian culture.
We delivered some laptops which were needed for training purposes; we collected the laptops from one restaurant and delivered to the next and so on, just in time for their training workshops.
Whilst on his delivery round, Parcel Pete decided to buy £50’s vouchers for Jamie’s Italian for one lucky winner which can be used at any of the Jamie’s restaurants across the UK!
So if you fancy your chances of winning, make sure you enter our competition.
But hurry, competition closes at 11.59pm on Tuesday 16th July and there will only be one winner!
It’s coming up to the holiday season and Parcel Pete wants to explore the world. He’s had a busy few weeks getting ready for his International Adventures and here at ipostparcels.com we’ve taken you along every step of his journey with our competition.
International Competition:
We’re running a competition to celebrate Parcel Pete’s international delivery service, where you could win £50’s Love2Travel vouchers as well as a Kindle, which is great for a holiday read, along with other little holiday essentials.
So far in the competition Parcel Pete has taken his photo for his passport, received his passport and you’ve all given him a list of countries to go visit.
Stage 2:
You now need to help Parcel Pete pack his suitcase so he came all his International deliveries. So if there’s only one thing you could pack what would it be? The quirkier the better! This part of the competition will be running till Tuesday 28th May and then we’ll be posting a different question for you to answer for the next part of Pete’s International adventure.

Competition closes on midnight June 5th, so hurry, there’s only going to be 1 winner!
Researching holidays, finding out where to go and what time of the year can be time consuming. ipostparcels.com have taken a look into this and have put together a little holiday timeline which will help advise you on where’s best to go, at specific times of the year.
Spring Break
Spring’s a great time of the year to visit places such as Morocco, Egypt and Italy, all short haul flights and nice and warm. African Safaris are also cheap this time of the year due to it being the wet season.
Summer Holidays
We don’t always get as much sun as we’d like during the summer season in the UK and some other destinations can be too hot for example Dubai and Egypt can be unbearably hot. Why not try Europe; you’ll get gorgeous weather, culture and landscapes from the likes of Sicily and Sardinia. Italy is also a personal favourite of our top delivery man, Parcel Pete.
Autumn Days
Temperatures become a lot more reasonable during the autumn term for destinations such as Dubai. You can still get a tan without being uncomfortably hot. We also recommend the Far East, they’ll be coming out of their wet season towards the end of autumn and the likes of Thailand and Malaysia are a must.
Winter Warmers
Escape the winter blues to warmer climes like Barbados, Jamaica, Cuba and Mexico. Prices may be slightly high but definitely worth it for the gorgeous beaches and crystal clear sea. If not, skiing is great this time of the year in Europe.
So there you have it, take a break from sending parcels and start booking your holidays, Parcel Pete certainly will be. Keep a look out on our Facebook and Twitter pages to see where in the world Parcel Pete will be visiting….
