actually it's a Katikati number (so basically Tauranga)...
Kate is "The Nappy Lady" that you see sometimes on Good Morning and although she talks about all nappies she is the totsbots importer for New Zealand so I'm guessing that's what the trial pack will be. They have fitteds, AIO & pocket nappies now too so maybe one of each? It's subsidised by HCC. ------------- Anita Mum to Cian (Aug 08), Josh (Jun 10) http://lilypie.com">

I went to this one as well. DH got heaps out of it in terms of what the different types are. And it was good to play with them all. They had 5 different options for trial packs to take home. There was a make it yourself kit with everything you need to make 5 (?) nappies, a prefold pack, several different types of fitted packs (snazzipants and???), pockets (ecobubs)and all in ones (totsbots). There were limited numbers of each pack so she drew names to see who chose first. We ended up getting a snazzipants fitted pack which was great as we only have one fitted.Also got a prefold in the pack too.Would certainly recommend it. DH got his photo in the paper putting the nappy on a prefold. LOL! No excuse not to now I know he can - and I have proof! (which of course I have sent to family and his mates ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">

I went as well it was great , the snazzi pants fitteds had bummis covers and there was also honeychild pockets. Most of the nappies were smalls with few meds :) I am tempted to go again next month for another nappy! ------------- http://lilypie.com"> http://lilypie.com">

I went to the Sat one as well, I had my daughter with me (the older bub). I got the totbots AIO it is fantastic, I have to convince DP that it's a worthwhile investment now considering we already have a full set of pockets! ------------- http://lilypie.com"> http://lilypie.com">
