The last time this happened, I kicked up a fuss, so the manager went off somewhere,
came back and said "Postal Services have some, so I'll see if I can borrow some from them and post some out to you.
I said, "Could I have them now please, seeing as they're in the basement, where you've just been?" and she said "No, they have to be posted out."

So there's a stock of them in the basement, but they're for posting, and as nobody's requesting them by post, they're just sat there, but the counter (the counter that has run out) cannot borrow any and hand them over. They have to ask if they can borrow some, and then send the customer on their way, with their vouchers behind them in the post. And that's only if they kick up a fuss. Most people are unaware of the vouchers Shangri-La in the basement.

Did they arrive in the post?

They did, actually.
They used to refuse to send them by post lest they fell into the wrong hands, so I was surprised to hear of 'Postal Services' existence.

Small mercies, I suppose.
