Want to Try Honey in its Natural Form?

Don Buck Honey has available Comb Honey from the Hawke’s Bay.

This has been harvested from hives placed on agricultural land – this is largely from nectar out of Clover and Squash (like pumpkin) flowers. The honey is a dark color and has a rich treacle-like flavor to it. Honey has some crystals in it but it is mainly runny.

Comb honey real novelty for many people – this is the natural form of honey, just as the bees make it. Honeybees build comb cells out of wax to store honey in, covering it over with more wax once the honey is ready. The wax is safe to eat but it does get stuck in your teeth – so many people spit that out!

$15 each. Usual discounts apply as per potted honey. Special discount of 4x comb honeys for $50. These weigh between 300-340g each.

Produced by another beekeeper and brought to you by Don Buck Honey!

Order online or get in touch with me. Pickups are from Massey, or orders can be couriered to you.

Hi Neighbours,

Feeling sluggish in the mornings or noticing increased discomfort in your back?

It might not just be your alarm clock—it could be time to assess if your mattress is still providing the support you need.

Let's explore the signs that suggest it's time for a new mattress, ensuring your nights are as restorative as they should be.

Health Check: Are You Waking Up Sore?

It’s not normal to wake up feeling like you’ve run a marathon (unless you actually have!). If your mattress is getting older, you might notice more back pain or general discomfort.

Investing in a new mattress can significantly improve your sleep quality and overall health.

Remember, your mattress should be your sanctuary, not a source of discomfort.

If you find yourself tossing and turning, trying to find a comfortable spot, it's a clear sign your body is asking for something new.

Spot the Signs: Physical Indicators Your Mattress Needs Replacing

Take a close look at your mattress:

Does it sag in the middle where you sleep?
Can you feel springs or bumps that weren't there before?
These are signs that your mattress is wearing out.

Over time, mattresses lose their shape and the materials inside break down, failing to provide adequate support.

Don’t compromise on comfort; a new mattress can revitalize your sleep experience. Isn’t that a wonderful reason to consider an upgrade?

How Long Has It Been? Understanding Mattress Lifespan

Every mattress has an expiration date, although it’s not printed on the tag.

Depending on the type—memory foam, innerspring, or others—they generally last 7 to 10 years.

Factors like mattress quality and maintenance affect lifespan.

Think about how long you've had your current mattress.

Is it nearing a decade?

If so, it might be time to start looking for a replacement.


What to Do Next: Choosing and Maintaining Your New Mattress

Selecting a new mattress might seem overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be.

Consider your sleep position, body weight, and comfort preferences.

Explore our Mattress Collection for various options incorporating the latest technology for the best night's sleep.

After choosing, proper maintenance can extend your mattress’s life:

Rotate it regularly
Use a mattress protector
Ensure good ventilation
The Comfort of a Fresh Mattress

Now that you understand the signs and tips for choosing wisely, why wait?

A new mattress is an investment in your health and well-being, not just an upgrade for your bedroom.

Explore our selection at Beds4U for high-quality, supportive mattresses that promise to transform your sleep—and your waking hours.

Say goodbye to sleepless nights and hello to mornings when you wake up refreshed and ready to conquer the day.

Your body—and your future self—will thank you for this smart, comforting choice!
