***Thermogard 800gm Gel Ice Pack***

Mike from Richmond

12 cell 800 gram coolant pack.
Dimensions (L x W) 380mm x 290mm

Gel Packs stay at a lower temperature longer than ice. Contents of each cell are a non-toxic gel and safe to use with septic tank systems.
Thermogard has you covered for sustainable use and are durable enough to be reused time and time again.

For disposal you can empty gel into your garden for better water retention.
The gel when mixed with salt will turn to liquid and can be drained down your sink.
Plastic can be dropped off at a local soft plastics drop off point (not kerbside recyclable).

To freeze gel packs lay each on a flat surface in the freezer for 24hrs.
I have a few of these available and great for lining your chilly bin.

Price: $5

Warnings about scams

The Team from New Zealand Police

This Fraud Awareness Week, we’re reminding everyone to stay sharp and look out for the warning signs of scams to stop them before they start.

Here’s what to watch out for:
🔍 Unrealistic offers or promises of easy money that are too good to be true
🔍 Pressure tactics: Scammers may rush or threaten you to act immediately.
🔍 Requests for personal info: Be cautious if you’re asked for bank details, passwords, or sensitive information.
🔍 Unusual payment methods like gift cards, cryptocurrency, or wire transfers.
🔍 Unverified contacts: Emails, calls, or messages from unknown or suspicious sources.

How to protect yourself:
✅ Stop and think before sharing personal details or making payments.
✅ Don't click on any links until you know that it is safe.
✅ Verify the source: Contact the organisation directly using official channels.
✅ If something’s not right, it's OK to hang up, walk away, ignore it and move on.

If you wish to report a scam, contact Police on 105 or report it online via 105.police.govt.nz/use-105.
