Organic Mandarins for sale

Dee from Mount Eden

Hi Folks - Many of you around the area of Mount Eden South know my Mandarin tree, as many of you have purchased, & enjoyed fruit from my tree during previous seasons. This season, my tree has again blessed us with quite a good crop of tasty, Mandarins. That said, I am happy to sell some of the fruit off to whoever would like some. In previous seasons, demand was high, so I will be selling bags for as long as my fruit lasts. A 1 KG paper bag is $5.99, but if you would like more than 1 KG please request. The fruit in the bags range in sizes, & are a mixture of large & smaller fruits. These are beautiful easy-peel, organically grown Mandarins that have no sprays or nasty pesticides anywhere near them or my property.
The fruit are indeed a popular sweet treat for kids' lunch boxes.
Organic Mandarins are very expensive at the organic specialty stores, & even supermarket ones are expensive currently, so this is still a fair deal.

I am able to provide a Safe, From your car pick-up system, from my driveway in Balmoral. Pay Cash or Bank Transfer upon collection, please. P.M me with your name & order requirements, & when you will collect it & I will message you back with my cell number.
In & out during weekdays too Cheers.

Chicken Gizzards!

Sunita from Royal Oak

Kia ora Neighbours

I purchased a pack of chicken gizzards from Pak n Save, Royal Oak on Fri 19 April 2024. The net weight of the packet was 1.280Kg. Up on cleaning the gizzards before cooking, I removed 330g of inedible portions. I consider this as fraud because the store charged me for 1.280Kg of gizzards but sold me 950g for the price (photos attached-inedible bits circled in blue).

I took up with matter with Pak n Save, Regional Office and they forwarded my complaint to the Royal Oak store for investigation. The Royal Oak Pak n Save have advised that they are discussing the matter with their supplier, Tegel. During the communication, it was stated by the store that in the week beginning 15 April, they sold 104 packets of chicken gizzards and have not had any other complaints.

If anyone else has purchased Chicken Gizzard from Pak n Save, Royal Oak, have discovered inedible bits in the packet and think that this practice needs to stop as it is resulting in customers being overcharged, please raise the issue with Pak n Save, Royal Oak.

Thank you!
Sunita
