Haven't looked at the bag rates, but there no longer seems to be any difference between ParcelPost and the Book a Courier box rates. There's not a whole lot of difference between the ParcelPost (or Economy) and courier service these days. You get the same level of tracking, but they just leave your parcel in the warehouse for an extra day or two. If you put a put a small box in a NZ Post bag you're covered for interisland posting.
Some swear by PassTheParcel, and others swear against them so that's possibly a cheaper option. Alternatively, up to 10% off buying all the NZ Post bags/tickets in bulk online, or my current third option using oodles of stamps but that's reliant on now defunct tracking tickets or a post office that supports payment by way of stamps.
Those pesky rural delivery charges are hard to avoid though...
