Welcome to Revisiting Nature

FABULOUS NEWS!!!

I just found out that all the items available from the Unique Health Products catalogue can be ordered individually - not in bulk. That means all you have to do is ask for something, even if it's only one item. Ideally we need to consolidate orders to minimise postage, so I will do a Unique Health Products order once at the end of each month. Their catalogue has everything (well, nearly everthing). I'm getting a few extra copies so that I can start circulating them via the divvy up baskets.

At the end of this month I'll be ordering in ThinkSport bottles, Power Super Foods cacao nibs and powder and Biologic air freshner - way under recommended retail prices....any other wishes? For inspiration, go to the links provided at the bottom of this email.

My apologies too, last week I missed putting GST on the non-fresh food items - the bottles are actually $37.46ea + postage and the air fresheners $6.71ea + postage.

Below are items available for March Week 3 

Simply reply to this email by Sunday morning by typing in what you would like to order (change the ‘Z' to a number) or phoning it through on 02 6721 5111 or faxing back to 02 6721 4159.

Please feel free to order any other items from this link (fruit, vegetables, sprouts, dairy, drinks, sauces, chocolate, nuts, dog food, coffee, tea, and just about everything else, do check it out...) that are listed as single units (e.g. each, pun, bch, bag etc). Per kilo items must be ordered in per kilo lots. Just type your item description/s below. Items like watermelon and pumpkins come in as whole items, so it is the final weight that is invoiced. Items that come in as 'per box' need to be counted before a final price can be provided, hence they are listed as 'approx'. The price, like everything else, is calculated at 20% above cost (which includes freight at $0.50/kg), e.g. (cost price * 1.2) + freight.

Extras*:

Z x item (press Enter then type to add more items)

(Note that the truck from Brisbane to Inverell is unrefrigerated - cold goods come in polystyrene boxes, but in mid-summer may become an issue)

* Prices are subject to change without notice
