Finally, a chance to play with all those gorgeous Snazzipants nappies before you buy! As well as their regular lines, the brand new Snazzipants retail store will also stock colored prefolds, Fuzzibuns, BumGenius and a variety of other nappies produced in New Zealand by Work-At-Home-Mums. To celebrate the grand opening, Snazzipants are holding a charity auction on-site on Friday 20th April, 2007. Items to be auctioned include nappies, hand knitted soakers and baby clothes. Proceeds of the auction will go to the Aria MacDonald Fund (for more details see http://www.aria.org.nz - www.aria.org.nz ) . You can find the new retail store at 145 Kitchener Rd, Milford, Auckland. After the grand opening the store will be open 9.30am to 2.30pm Monday-Friday. If you'd like to participate in the auction but are unable to be there on the day keep an eye on the Snazzipants website ( http://www.snazzipants.co.nz - www.snazzipants.co,nz ) for details of how to submit online bids prior to the auction. And watch this space - we're about to reveal the newest addition to our team, a cloth nappy expert! -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

i am so so so jealous of you auckland girls (and i NEVER say that normally haha!) for having a real snazzi store to go and drool in....
but my hubby and my bank manager are glad i am not up there. its just another reason to go up and stay with my sis i guess......
i will be keeping an eye on the auction too, its such a great cause. ------------- Lyla - mum to Xanthe - my big 4 year old

I know Emma has posted this bit but just a bump to remind everyone (hope you don't mind Emma  )
For people who are out of town you can place a bid by email. Check out http://www.snazzipants.co.nz - www.snazzipants.co.nz , you may need to refresh then click on the Aria auction link. You can see many of the items for auction and send in your maximum bid by email. Be awesome to see the rest of NZ get behind Aria and her family this way!! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I hope to be at the auction Emma, I read on the site that it is at 4pm. Have a m/w appointment in Takapuna at 3, so it will depend on how long it takes i guess.
Just got a bonus from work, so have $$$ to spend now. DH is scared - as he should be ------------- http://lilypie.com">

So bummed that I missed this! My BIL who is 27 had a minor stroke yesterday so all hell has broken loose in our household at the moment!
Will go and check out the store on Monday though when I see the m/w (after rescheduling)! Bummed that I missed the OB's that went. Will have to meet up with you all once Sam is here ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Hope you are feeling better for tomorrow Deborah. I was very restrained and didn't buy a single thing (except the Berry Plush that OHbaby! donated)
Sorry to hear about your BIL Sterryn, I hope he is doing OK? ------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)

LOL Sterryn - I thought MCN's would be a passing phase for me and I'd eventually get sick of buying new ones and stick with the ones I have, but six months in and I'm still totally obsessed ------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)
