Hi all, I could've sworn I saw someone advertising a complete car 'makeover' but I don't seem to be able to find it - 'you snooze, you loose'! Can anyone please confirm, or failing that does anyone know who locally provides, or is willing to provide such a service? … View moreHi all, I could've sworn I saw someone advertising a complete car 'makeover' but I don't seem to be able to find it - 'you snooze, you loose'! Can anyone please confirm, or failing that does anyone know who locally provides, or is willing to provide such a service? Unfortunately, I am severely limited in the use of one limb, so getting into 'nooks and crannies' when cleaning one's car is just one of the many things I am unable to do any more. Thanks in advance!

What you need to know:
- The product is called Large $20 Acacia Serving Tray and was sold nationally.
- The product may be infested with Lyctus africanus (also known as the African powderpost beetle), a species not present in New Zealand.
- Kmart are no longer selling these products and will wait for instruction from MPI before destroying these.
Anyone who finds a suspected exotic pest is encouraged to call MPI’s hotline on 0800 80 99 66.

They deserve to be truly comfortable in a warm, dry home without stressing about their power bills, or their health.
They might be eligible for Warmer Kiwi Homes, a government grant offering 80% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.
And they may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.
Go to warmerkiwihomes.govt.nz to check their eligibility.
