Come and see what all the fuss is about at 14 Stadium drive next to the Mad Butcher. Thousands of customers have already saved themselves lots of money shopping at Reduced to Clears' latest store in Pukekohe.

Reduced to Clear specialises in clearance food and general merchandise where customers can save up to 80% off normal RRP. It does this by purchasing end of lines, change of packaging, short-dated and cancelled export orders from local suppliers and then sells it to the public at heavily reduced prices.

The stock changes every day as they get new clearance stock in to sell. They have a range of frozen, chilled, and dry grocery lines and look out for the weekend specials as this is normally when all the yoghurts and specialty cheese are in stock.

They also stock the cheapest milk in town including the old fashioned silver top. By shopping at Reduced To Clear you know you are also helping save the planet as RTC saves thousands of tonnes of food from going to waste per annum.

If you accept that Thames-Coromandel’s Mayor Sandra Goudie and the East Coast councillors are correct in not taking strong emission reduction action -- then you have to accept that these 100 business leaders are wrong.
