I just received my family Carlton membership pack & to my horror the plastic membership card holder for the Mrs (1st time member - finally) is actually a Colllingwood one. :o Did anyone else receive this blunder? I'm still throwing up in the loungeroom.

That's disgraceful!! Go easy on the guys at the Club, though, because all that stuff comes from a central company

Not from memory. They get sent from a central dispatch company, which has all the bits 'n' bobs which come with the membership.


(I haven't got mine yet, and I renewed immediately, too :cry: )

It was probably just a collingwood filth supporter who works at the factory sticking it in the pile as a stir. Luckily in my pack i received 2 carlton wallets so no harm done

Ours arrived today too :-D

Miss Prussian got her Carlton insert :-D
Master Prussian got his Carlton insert :-D
I got my Carlton insert :-D but then when
Doctor Prussian opened his it was COLLINGWOOD :evil:
and TWO of them :shock: :shock: :shock:

Actually I guess it is quite amusing really but I'll still be writing to the M'ship Dept to get the correct one for hubby. It's as if the person stuffing the envelope somehow knows the Dr. Prussian is the only one of us not born a blue :?

Every year we have to go through this... :(


It can take until just prior to the wiz/NAB/whatever cup for memberships to be despatched...


I don't remember them coming out this early before?....


So DON"T STRESS!!!!!

They will come.

Sorry Mrs C :oops: I should have mentioned that this pack contains the cover letter, lanyard, general info sheet, stickers, shop vouchers, m'ship gift coucher and card holder only.
The letter states that the actual membership card plus any other relevant info will be send in January.

Still can't believe we got a Collingwood sleeve :roll:

Interestingly, (unless I missed something)?? The Membership Managers' letter refers to a family day at Princes Park and the Stationery is also Princes Park

Mine turned up with a bottle of Grange and Scarlett Johannsen. Crap vintage and she wasn't even wearing any clothes but you can't complain.
