Same-day or courier? Check the postal code
The recipient's postal code — the BC one, not your own — tells you which service their address gets: same-day by our drivers, or courier with an estimated transit time.
Enter the recipient's code here — the one on your own card statement stays with the payment details.
Tax and the age rule follow the delivery address
Two things are decided by the recipient's province rather than yours: the tax charged at checkout and the minimum age for a gift with alcohol in it. For BC:
GST and provincial taxThe order carries 5% GST + 7% PST because the delivery is in BC — a different figure from the 14% HST charged in Nova Scotia.
AlcoholA gift with wine, beer or spirits is handed only to someone 19+ — BC's legal drinking age, the same as Nova Scotia's. Photo ID is checked at the door and the gift is never left unattended.
The delivery feeWaived over $100 in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland; a courier address in the rest of BC sees its charge at checkout, priced by the recipient's postal code.
The recipient's phoneGoes in the delivery fields — the driver or courier calls the recipient, never the buyer.
The card in the basketYour words, your name — the recipient sees who sent it and never a price.

How Nova Scotia's orders to BC look
Of the gifts paid for in Nova Scotia and delivered in BC over the past two years, 91% went to same-day addresses in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland — 44% to Vancouver, 22% to North Vancouver and 6% to Delta. The median Nova Scotia order came to $130. December is the busiest month, with 28% of the year's orders; 3% of Nova Scotia gifts go to a workplace address, against 29% for the store's senders overall.
The numbers describe Nova Scotia's orders as a group; no gift has enough of them to be ranked, so the store's leaders carry the grid. Figures are shares of orders paid for in Nova Scotia and delivered in British Columbia, 2024 to today; the median is the middle order, not an average.

Asked by Nova Scotia buyers
What time do I have to order from Nova Scotia for same-day delivery?
Vancouver's same-day cut-off is 11:00 a.m. Pacific — 3:00 p.m. where you are. Orders after that go out the next delivery day; the courier for the rest of BC has its own 2:00 p.m. Pacific cut-off.
Is there someone to speak to?
Yes, seven days a week from 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Pacific on +1 (604) 636-0960; email [email protected] outside those hours.
Does my Nova Scotia address change the price?
Only through the tax: BC's 5% GST + 7% PST is charged because the delivery is in BC — Nova Scotia's 14% HST does not apply. Everything else is the same as for a Vancouver buyer.
Who has to be home for a basket with alcohol?
Someone aged 19+ with photo ID — BC's rule. A bottle is never left unattended; if nobody of age is there, the driver arranges another attempt.
Can I write the card in my own words?
Yes, at checkout — it is printed exactly as typed, signed with your name, and nothing in the parcel mentions a price.
