FARMERS PURCHASING
JUST A HEADS UP TO SHOPPERS. I HAVE SHOPPED AT FARMERS FOR YEARS. BUT DID NOT KNOW THAT ON THE DOCKET IS SAYS IF YOU RETURN AN ITEM THEY WILL NOT REFUND MONEY BUT GIVE YOU A GIFT VOUCHER. NONE OF THE STAFF HAVE EVER STATED THAT. I PURCHASED AN ITEM SATURDAY RETURNED IT SUNDAY AS FOUND I HAD ONE WHEN ARRIVING HOME. EXPECTING A REFUND, BUT NO APPARENTLY NOT. SO PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHEN PURCHASING AS I WILL IN THE FUTURE.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
