Bob and Brenda from The Bed People

Hi neighbours. We would like to introduce ourselves. We are Bob and Brenda Flanagan from The Bed People, your local 100% New Zealand-owned bed store. Our beds and mattresses are made in factories in Auckland and Christchurch, providing jobs for over 400 kiwis.

We have a passion for helping people find the best possible bed to suit their needs and their budget. All of our beds and mattresses are the best available. We have worked with NZ Comfort group, Sleepyhead and Serta to have an enhanced bed and mattress offering which is unique to our stores, employing the latest technology and materials. We offer 'healthy' beds and mattresses free of chemicals which could cause health concerns for our customers.

Poll: Do you think an age check is required for these drinks?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Stores are checking IDs for fancy soft drinks and not everyone is happy about it.⁠

One shopper, who asked not to be named, bought some zero alcohol branded drinks at his local supermarket and was asked to “step around into the thoroughfare so a supervisor could see me and make sure I was over 18. I couldn't believe it."⁠

Do you think an age check is required for these drinks? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

What's your favourite tomato recipe?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
