Support small food stores by buying from them!
Supermarkets have had almost ALL our business for an entire month so I'm calling for shopping at small food outlets as much as possible, especially once we go down to level 3 - for what may take you an hour more in time per week will make a massive difference for these small businesses.
Some of these places are already doing online delivery - please support them and give them some love or find alternatives in your area. Add your suggestions below :)
Here are some of my favourites in the Point Chevalier/Grey Lynn/Westmere areas:
