My Food Bag now available across Wairarapa. One week trial up for grabs!
By now most of you would have heard about My Food Bag, but to most of us here in the provinces it just hasn't been an option.
My Food Bag has contacted us at Neighbourly to tell us that as of July most Wairarapa areas are in its zones of delivery.
They are giving us a chance to try it for ourselves.
First of all My Food Bag is providing me as the News of Wairarapa representative a free trial for a week and I (with the help of my wife and kids) will be trying it out and doing a daily wrap up of the meal from Monday July 16.
In the meantime My Food Bag has offered a free one-week-trial to one lucky Wairarapa Neighbourly member. Just email your entry to piers.fuller@stuff.co.nz with "My Food Bag" in the address line and we will pick a name out of the hat at the end of the month and get My Food Bag to email you with a voucher.

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
