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

Angeline from Bryndwr

Hi Neighbors,

It’s a special day at Cafe Mint! Today, April 17th, marks exactly 9 years since I first opened these doors on Wairakei Road.

Looking back, my heart is full. From the quiet support during COVID to the daily laughter of local teachers and students, you’ve made this cafe more than just a business—you’ve made it a home.

To say thank you for being the soul of our shop, I’ve prepared a small gift for everyone in the community:

🎁 Your 9th Anniversary Digital Pass:
• $2 OFF (Min. spend $10)
• $5 OFF (Min. spend $20)

How to use: Just screenshot the voucher below and show it on your phone when you visit! You can use it once a day to treat yourself.

Whether you’re a regular or haven't popped in for a while, I’d love to see you today and say thanks in person.


Warmly,


Angeline
