    I think you DEFINITELY need a fire blanket. Preferably a house sized one.

    If a kitchen fire is that bad, you're probably past the flour or the fire blanket. Might be time to just let the men with trucks, hats & raincoats handle it.

    Sure if you throw small handfuls at the fire it's probably not gonna work out so well. But if you dump a container or sack of the stuff on it, Fire gone

    Hey everyone! We have a deal on 2012 dated 2.5kg and 4.5kg ABE Dry Powder extinguishers, must be ordered by 31 March, though. The reason is that commercial customers want the current year date stamp due to requiring testing every five years. The price reduction accordingly makes this better, but also for domestic customers a chance for a real score.

    Prices are: 2.5kg $59.00, 4.5kg $77.00!!!

    While stocks last of course, I expect they won't hang around long at this price.

    Got me new extinguisher Ed, cheers. Its so dinky.

    At home we have a 1.5kg Dry chemical one that has dropped into the recharge part of the dial. Is it cheaper to refill it or buy a new one. And if we grab a new one how do we dispose of the old one?

    If it's an older one it will have to be tested before recharging and even the recharging cost is probably about teh same as I could do you a new 1.5kg for.

    Disposal is fine if it's discharged completely you can probably send it in the recycle bin or take it to the tip. Some people like to reuse them as pressurised cylinders to pump up bike tyres at a track so if you know anyone who may like it for that you could ask. A new 1.5kg I can do for the same price as the 2.5kg on special, $59.00. The normal retail price for the 1.5kg is $70.00.

    Makes the specials really cheap right now, but I can't offer them after the 31st March, so anyone wanting one, (or ten..), has to let me know by then.

    Bumpity bump

    We have decided to extend the special offer on our 2012 dated dry powder fire extinguishers, now expanded.

    2.5kg - $59
    4.5kg - $89
    6.0kg - $99
    9.0kg - $120

    Including GST, plus freight, which we can do real cheap.

    Normal warranty applies.

    These are selling fast! While stocks last!

    Obviously not selling fast enough.

    Some of my orders were 26 to one customer, twelve to another and three to another. I persuaded my supplier to continue after ascertaining exactly how many of each were left. The sale has been even more successful than I thought it would be!

    Geez, that's way below what I can sell them for.

    Very few businesses undercut my pricing and if so it is usually due to inferior quality.

    Definitely not due to inferior product here. I work with a major company that has been here over 100 years and is probably the largest supplier of fire and rescue equipment in NZ.

    Perhaps it's a case where size does make a difference?

    I won't get drawn in.

    I don't like price wars, as in the end nobody wins. The customer does until the warring parties go under then the other companies carry on at higher pricing.
