| Do it Yourself Plumbing Tips |
From The Masters Hardware Team Plumbers are expensive and in a two speed economy you could be looking at a hefty bill depending where you live. One example is if you have a blocked drain there are a few DIY ideas to get it working again. Before you do anything make sure you know where the mains water supply is located to your property so you can turn it off if necessary. One way a kitchen drain can clog up is a build up of grease over time. A little known tip is to pour MORE HOT grease down the drain to begin with. It will actually cause hardened grease to liquefy and move along the pipes. The benefit of trying this first is that it’s safer for the environment rather than using harsh toxic chemicals. Another way to try and unblock the drain is to use a plunger which once again may do the job before having the need for chemicals. If you can do it yourself, save money by not calling a plumber and be environmentally friendly it's a great outcome. If you have hints and tips let us know at mastershardware.com |

From The Masters Hardware Team
Those experiencing financial difficulties are better off getting in contact with their utility supplier as soon as possible. In some cases of financial hardship, there are options to enter into payment arrangements. However before this situation arises why not try some very basic utility saving tips to help you along the way.

- 2. Did you know that appliances left on standby can still use up to 80% as much energy/power as when they are turned on?
- 3. Interesting and useful!! A leaking tap wastes as much water as having one extra bath a week. GET IT FIXED!
- 4. Power saving light bulbs last ten times longer than regular light bulbs and could save you big bucks over their lifespan. Fact!

Property Sales using QR codes, What are QR codes I hear you asking, they are similar to the barcodes used by retailers like Walmart and Target to track stock and price products at the point of sale. |  QR-Reader App for iPhone |
To keep it simple QR codes are two dimensional matrix barcodes that can hold thousands and thousands of alphanumeric characters of info. Their ability to hold more information means when you scan or read a QR code with your iPhone, Android, or smart mobile phone, you can link to digital content on the web.
The first QR code to hit the property market in Australia has been released and now you can scan the code and go straight to the property with its own Facebook page. Imagine shopping with your smart mobile phone scanning a QR code in store and then comparing that fridge to a competitors down the road. Interesting times for property agents and retailers alike.
