Don't go old-school this winter and just throw on another jersey to beat the cold. You deserve to be truly comfortable in a warm, dry home without stressing about power bills.

Warmer Kiwi Homes is a government grant that offers 80% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.

And you may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.

Check your eligibility, or check for your whānau, at www.warmerkiwihomes.govt.nz

Have you heard about Perfectly Imperfect cheap fruit and veges?

Susan from Mount Eden

Hiya, first - Perfectly Imperfect is a non profit which gleans or receives fruit and veg which supermarkets don't accept- too small, too big, too weird.

Hiya, first - Perfectly Imperfect is a non profit which gleans or receives fruit and veg which supermarkets don't accept- too small, too big, too weird.

www.facebook.com...
or there's an interview on RNZ and an article in the NZ Herald if you want
to research it

They sell these mystery boxes of fruit and veg (a decent amount) for $26 a box which can be delivered for around $10 weekly. I'd guess the amount in the box would be $60 to $80 worth at a supermarket
For every 4 boxes sold a family who can't afford it gets a free one.
Anyway follow the link above for the details, the thing is they were doing a pop up on Friday afternoons at Gribblehurst Community Hub outside but its grown too much so they're looking for a space in our area maybe 4 days a week to set up a wee shop, cheap or free. Does anyone know of such a thing?

If you do, you can message me or contact them directly through the Facebook page above, thanks everybody!

FREE exercise bike

Computer display not working (but at least that means it doesn't need batteries or electricity supply so you can put it outside under a deck perhaps?) Tension dial works well so you're able to make your workout easier or more difficult with more resistance if you like. A bit of rust under the seat.
