Lincoln Clothes Swap

Lincoln Envirotown Coordinator from Lincoln Envirotown

Have fun swapping your pre-loved clothes for other quality clothes donated. Free donated clothes will be on display, so bring your friends and make an evening of it.

Women’s, Men’s, and Kids' clothing and accessories accepted, please no undergarments. If you don’t have clothes to drop off, you can still come along on the evening and help yourself to free clothes.

VIP tickets are given to those who drop off their clothes before the event. This ticket will allow you and a friend early entry to the event.

Drop-off can be arranged in Lincoln. We have several drop-off locations and times, listed below. We can be identified by our blue Lincoln Envirotown t-shirt.

What's your best cost-saving tip?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Just when we thought the cost of living couldn't climb any higher...it does. While things like fuel prices are out of our control, many of us are looking for small, practical ways to stretch our dollars a bit further. So let’s put our heads together!

Over the next little while, we’ll be sharing tips to help you save money — and we’d love to hear yours too. What’s working for you right now?

Here are a few ideas to get started:
🎉 Plan ahead for the year (birthdays, events, travel) to avoid surprise costs
🪙 Check out $2 shops for everyday items like stationery, baking paper, foil, and cling wrap - often much cheaper than the supermarket
🐖 Bring back the piggy bank and save your loose change
🔨 DIY where you can - like mowing the lawn instead of paying someone
💵 Set a daily budget before heading out and stick to it (cash can help!)
🧴 Stretch household products by diluting things like shampoo or dishwashing liquid

Got a tip that’s helping you save? Share it below, the tip might make a huge difference to someone else.
