Door to door sales tactics yet again!
Many of you know my aversion to forceful door to door sales people. In fact I got into a little hot water last time I talked about this..... However it has just come to my attention that there are sales people offering free carpet shampoos. The whole campaign is geared to getting into a persons home environment to sell a vacuum cleaner. You may well ask, Carol I thought you said this was a carpet shampoo! You would be correct as that is what my contact thought. Lo and behold that was not the intent, they did very badly want to sell a $4000 vacuum cleaner... Yes you read that right, a $4000 vacuum!
My contact is savvy but it still took some time to convince the sales person there was not going to be a sale. Our concern is that there are vulnerable people in our community who may well feel pressured into making a purchase they can ill afford or need. So please be aware and let other people know if there are concerns.

POTTING MIX QUALITY
If, like me, you are an experienced and avid gardener you know how frustrating it is when those beautiful seedlings recently purchased fail to thrive. Have you ever considered it may not be your fault, you've done all the right things but it may be the new bag of potting mix you bought to plant them in . Have you ever complained to the garden centre? My recent experience showed the blatantly obvious difference between brands. The recently purchased product was nothing more than raw compost, whereas the previous product was a good mix and made the plants thrive. I was the only one to complain, there could not possibly be a problem with the product as they sell pallet loads of it........ Your comments would be appreciated.
