I'm sure not eating as much sugar is a noble pursuit, but we want to see goals which better your whole community (not just your waistline).
We really want to know because we want to share your resolutions this year so that at the end of it we can check back in and see how it went. How you made a difference in your community.
Let us know your Community Resolution by emailing matthew.salmons@fairfaxmedia.co.nz and we'll be in touch.
HAPPY NEW YEARS!

I have a king single trundler bed set for $500 for sale. It’s a good price as it’s near new condition (has had very little use) and comes with some linen.

Single king sized trundler bedset with second unit wheeled underneath base unit for storage. Upgraded mattresses to Sealy Posture Premier spinecare with plush layer.

Selling due to lack of use - comes complete with 1x king single bed sheets + double F1 duvet cover (note cover only - no inner) and pillow case and 1x trundler single bed sheets.

Photo is of the king size single and frame with F1 duvet and pillow covers.

UPDATE: just added additional photos to show the beds and mattresses a bit better along with the linen that comes with the beds (I forgot to say above, that they also come with two single mattress protectors and a single electric blanket as well as the duvet cover, single bed sheets and single king sheets mentioned above). All linen is practically brand new.
