Produce Bags - made from 100% re-purposed fabric

Annie from Silverstream

If you’re like me and turn up at the supermarket with your re-usable grocery bags but still find yourself needing to use those plastic produce bags. Well, finally I got around to solving this problem for myself and I’ve made extras, so you can solve that problem for yourself too!

All made from 100% repurposed textiles supplied by Bespoke Curtains Upper Hutt. Fabrics may vary accordingly. You can specify a preferred colour combination once you've added them to your cart.

$40 for 6 bags – 2 large 42x35 cm, 2 medium 31x30 cm, 2 small 23x20 cm

$5/pack sold goes to Fuel the Need. A charity in Upper Hutt providing school lunches.

See you at the hokomaha (supermarket)!

Oh, and don’t forget to weigh all your produce naked, every bag you use adds cents to your grocery bill, including those flimsy plastic ones. Weigh nude, then pack those bad boys. See our blog page for more information on this.

Price: $40

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
