I've used them a few times and it has always been really quick, but they are based in Brisbane like me, so YMMV.

Freeship doesn't seem to work on anything that's of reasonable size. Like scooters (even foldable ones) or child seats.
Didn't work for me. Total was $44.00; notice popped up to say "get free shipping if you spend another $56.00". So, it looks like $100 for free shipping.
Worked for me. I ordered 7 relatively small items. Thanks OP.
Any good deals on top of the reduced free shipping min spend?
It depends on what you are looking for. You can start at their sale page http://www.pushys.com.au/on-sale.html then browse using category or price.
For example, under $5 items http://www.pushys.com.au/on-sale/under-5-dollars-sale.html
Under $10 items http://www.pushys.com.au/on-sale/under-10-dollars-sale.html
I don't think the sale is that great. Sizing is limited; on sale lights are average, etc.
I1403I, when you looked at the on sale lights, did you notice any that would be fine for a weekend rider who is sometimes caught out at dusk and would like to be seen rather than squished (i do wear reflective jacket). Thanks
Thanks I1403I and OP. Bought 4 Maxxis Gypsy 700c hybrid tyres for $34 all up inc free shipping. Other online bike stores sell for $30 each. Bargain and hope they are good.
@Hen:
I've been looking for a good and reasonably priced front light myself but haven't found anything good yet.
I have this light from Kathmandu http://www.kathmandu.com.au/accessories/active/cycling/cycle…. At high beam 300 lumen, it is OK to travel around 10km/h, but probably not enough if you ride faster than that. Note that my eyesight is about 8/10. Another down side of this light is that the battery can be recharged about 200 times if I remember correctly. After that you'll have to replace the battery. The battery when new holds charge very well though.
For any light less than $50 at Pushys at the moment, you won't go over 300 lm, which is about the same with my light.
To go over 300 lm, you'll jump up to a different price level, for example this one seems to be ok http://www.pushys.com.au/azur-thumb-ii-1000lm-usb-rechargeab…
I'm not too sure about rear light. I have a basic one and it is ok for my needs because I ride mostly on the bike path. I saw people having more than 2 rear lights on.
Hope that helps.
@l1403l: many thanks. Much appreciated
The lights with standard aa/aaa batteries are the best IMO. You don't have to worry about the recharge - just drop into a 24h store and get new batteries. Very frustrating having USB rechargeable lights when you don't have access to a charger (or an hour to wait for the charge). Quite a few there.
Powerbank?
So silly that they use $ categories on the website. I never shop based on max $ unless it's for a secret santa kind of thing and even then wouldn't do it.
Got my tyres yesterday. Amazingly quick delivery.
