Canada Post Strike and Upcoming Markets

Canada Post Strike and Upcoming Markets

If you haven't already heard, Canada Post workers have initiated a rotating strike as of Oct. 22. What this means is that a select number of Canadian cities will have 24 hour strikes. We don't know which cities until they announce day of. However, mail is still being delivered, it just may delay it a few days.

We use Canada Post for our shipping and unfortunately there is no cost efficient alternative right now. If you would like to pay extra for courier service, I can provide an estimate, just email me at info@hopnflop.ca. Otherwise, I can hold an order until a strike is over or mail as is.

For all Calgary/Edmonton locals, I will be at various markets for the remainder of 2018. If you would like to order and pick up at one of these markets, use code: FREESHIPPINGYYC and provide a note for which market you'll be coming by to pick up.

Nov 3 - Bowness Christmas Craft Fair, Bowness Community Centre, Calgary
Nov 11 - Fort Calgary Artisan Fair, Calgary
Nov 17 to 18 - Curated Winter Market, Edmonton
Nov 24 - Little Modern Market Holiday Edition, Calgary
Dec 14 to 16 - Market Collective Holiday Market, BMO Centre, Calgary 

You can also find some of my products at various stockists and a couple pop ups. Here are the two pop ups: 

Aug 2018 to Dec 2018 - Marketspot, Calgary (in the Core Shopping Mall, 2nd floor)
Nov 2018 to Dec 2018 - Marketspot, Calgary (Crossiron Mills)
