Op-Shop Open
Hello! Just a message to let everyone know that our little animal rescue charity op shop is still open! We have been made aware a lot of people believe we have closed down but we haven’t!!
Located at 2181 East Coast Road, 4 Paws Pet Care charity shop and desex clinic is open Monday Wednesday 10-4 and Friday 10-2 with the clinic operating on Tuesdays.
We are all volunteers including the growing team of veterinary staff and all funds made in the shop and the clinic go towards reducing desex costs for local rescues and people in need to help the animals have a better quality of life!
Lots of amazing goods in our shop all for very reasonable cheap prices!!
So come in and have a look and support our animals!!
We are also looking for more volunteers to get us open more days during the week if anyone would like to volunteer with us!!
thanks and look forward to seeing you guys in store!
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
39.3% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
58.7% No, I enjoy it
-
2% Other - I'll share below
Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
Auckland has a thriving cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures across the country, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?
Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.
