GirlGuiding NZ has been working hard to provide you with some discounts and deals at a range of suppliers and businesses all over the country.
This page will be regularly updated as more businesses come on board and don’t forget to check for those special deals.
To get the discount or special deal, all you need to do is show proof that you are part of our organisation (you can use the membership card that can be downloaded from the OGM Parent Portal). The deals are usually available to girls as well as adults but there may be some instances where it is adults only.
Macpac Adventure Partnership Macpac has a loyalty group in all Macpac stores that entitles all members of GirlGuiding New Zealand 30% off RRP on Macpac branded products. By identifying yourself as part of GirlGuiding NZ at Macpac shop counters (show your identity card from the front of your workbook, your GirlGuiding NZ name badge or business card), members, parents, family and staff will be able to receive the discount and elect to have your purchase entered as part of the GirlGuiding NZ MAP scheme. This means Macpac will allocate an additional 5% of the sale price to the GirlGuiding New Zealand MAP Fund, on top of your 30% discount. You will need to be a member, or become a member, of the Macpac Wilderness Club to access discounts and the deal applies only to shop counter sales. If an item is on sale and has a price reduction greater than the 30% GirlGuiding New Zealand discount, no additional discount is applicable. However please elect 5% of the purchase price to be given to the GirlGuiding NZ MAP fund even if an item is on sale. The deal excludes bulk group purchases of gear. Personal Locator Beacon Hire Macpac are also helping us to keep safer in the outdoors by offering free Personal Locator Beacon (PLB) hire to our members, so you can enjoy New Zealand more safely. |

To minimise costs for families and remove the need to buy a new shirt when changing sections, a single style and colour of shirt has been sourced, which can be worn across all girl sections.
The use of a single shirt style and colour makes this top far more cost-effective for members. It also provides great visibility when large numbers of girls are wearing the same, branded shirt together in the community.
The replacement Girls Polo and remaining Girls additional uniform items are now only available from the new supplier – XCM Group – via their website, or at their Christchurch premises.
Unbranded additional uniform items have always been accepted as part of the GirlGuiding NZ uniform, especially pants and jackets, girls are free to wear a jacket or pants from home or purchase from any retailer. The expectation is that these items are Navy blue.
