Looking after their Consumers

Suzzy from Taita

First it was butter - Warehouse $5, Supermarkets $6-$7. Warehouse ended up making their own butter because no one would supply them. And eventually the price came down in the Supermarkets.
Now Sanitarium refuses to sell Weetbix to Warehouse, who have been selling the 1.2kg box for $6 for ages!!!… View more

Really!!!
I’m sure Warehouse still make a profit at $6. It’s all those 69c (P&S price today) that make a difference to my budget.
“Shame Sanitarium, Go Warehouse”
Actually I’ll be deleting Sanitarium products from my shopping list meantime……

On person said they saw a guy in a van pick it up and take it away in a van probably between 9.30-10am. There have been no cats handed into any vets or the SPCA and he is microchiped but no word so far. If you know anything at all please contact me on 021 021 0261 8903. We just want our boy home so we can say goodbye 😢

"I managed to get some birdie time yesterday at Silverstream just in time before the wet weather set in! Spent a bit of time chasing an elusive kōtare but no shots unfortunately! I did get close to a few Goldfinches at one stage which is unusual as they are normally very skittish!
I discovered a shag high up in the trees near a playground too! A shame it was too dark to get a decent capture but I liked the shadow effect! Saw lots of ducks in the stream, I think that there were a couple of Australian Shovellers if I am not mistaken!
The first photos is of tui that I had earlier been stalking around my property. He had plenty to say to me...."
