KINDLING FUNDRAISER
My sons are off to Australia with their Shirley Boys High cricket team in September and I am making them raise half the cost of their trip.

$10 per box.

We can deliver 6 boxes or more for free within the Chch area (at a time that suits)

My son's have also made a splitter box to help split the kindling if you want and they are selling these for $10.

Photo 3 shows the splitter block and the last photo shows how much kindling you get if you split just one $10 box.

Kindling can also be picked up from either Burwood or Harewood (Near Bishopdale)

For any elderly people living in the Brighton area (or nearish to Burwood rd) we will happily deliver a single box if that is all you need as we have had a few elderly men and woman whom aren't able to get out and don't require 6 boxes. Would rather drop a box off to you than you be cold.

They have sold a lot to very happy people but still have boxes left.

Price: $10

A recent spike in Christchurch petrol prices has highlighted the lack of petrol price competition in the city.

Christchurch motorists took a significantly bigger hit than those in North Island cities when international crude oil prices jumped during May and June, new data shows.

Infometrics economist Gareth Kiernan says with fewer discount stations, South Island motorists are more exposed the brunt of such price hikes.

The Government has proposed a sweeping fuel-efficient vehicle policy that would make some cars up to $8000 cheaper - while others would be $3000 more expensive.

The "feebate" scheme wouldn't cost the taxpayer anything, instead using money gained by putting a fee on imported high-emissions cars in order to make imported hybrids, electric cars, and other efficient vehicles cheaper with a subsidy.
