Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Think I was scammed today

Derek from Papatoetoe

Hi everyone just a warning that I think I got scammed today. Went in to buy an extension cord came out with 4 pillows 3 sheet sets. 6 new towels. A frying pan a toaster. A electric jug. Dinner plates knife fork and spoon set it seems like they put everything on special and made the lay out off the store so I had to walk past everything before I got to the product I went into buy.
