Can Crushers

Douglas from Glendowie

From the Mens Shed East Auckland this week - something new!

We have been gifted 10 of these can and plastic bottle crushers to sell to help fund our community work. They come with mounting screws. Crush your cans and bottles and you will only have to put out the recycle bin once a month, which is good for the environment. Particulary useful in schools - kids love to use them and it compacts the waste stream.

These sell for $20 to $30 on Trademe delivered and one of these can be yours for only $10.

If you plan to come and get one let me know so I can keep a tally.
The Mens Shed is a registered charity and income from sales is used to fund our community work.

Pick up in Abbotts way, Waiatarua Reserve car park, Mon to Sat 9:00 till 12:00 and till 3:00 on Tuesdays.

Price: $10

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.

Aucklanders, we want to know: How are you feeling about the current property market?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

New Zealand homeowners are now more likely to sell at a loss than at any time since 2013, and if you’re in Auckland or Wellington, the odds are even higher.

But there is a silver lining: buyers are still in a strong position when it comes to negotiating prices.

So we’re curious…
How are you feeling about the current property market?

If you’re keen to dive into the details, Deborah Morris breaks down all the latest insights.
