Competition time at Gardenfresh Greengrocers Bishopdale.
As we say goodbye to summer today and welcome in Autumn, we decided it was time to do another competition.
How does hot coffee, (made by the city's top barista for the 2nd year running) and some delicious cafe food sound?
To be in the draw to win a $20 voucher for cafe Strange Bandit by Luciano on Roydvale Ave, Bishopdale, you need to spend $20 or more in store, write your name and phone number on the back of your receipt and pop it in the box at the counter. Winner will be drawn on Sunday and announced on our Facebook page. (So make sure you like the page)
New Passionfruit have arrived in store today. Only $8.99kg. Grab some before we sell out again.
