NZPOST-rip off!!!

Pat from Flagstaff

OK, so my son is on a camp for the next 2 weeks but he forgot his cap and so today I went into nzpost to send it off to him, hoping it would get there tomorrow. I was prepared to pay courier but it was going to cost $4.50 for the bag plus $3.70 cos its rural and $3.50 for a courier delivery, so $11.70. The problem as i see it is that you have to pay for a service that you might not get!!! And then, you will never know if the package gets there on time, so in affect you are paying the extra, in this case $3.50, for a POSSIBILITY of getting there in 1-2 days, so I said, 'You are saying that I am paying for something that might not happen' (ie delivery before the weekend) and he said yes that is how it always is with nzpost-they hope to get it there but no guarantees to which I replied, 'why am i paying for something you cannot promise me will happen?'
What a rip off!!!

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
