FREE Double Size Bean-Bag

Liz from South Dunedin

Fancy a super-size bean bag? This is big enough that a large guy can be really comfortable sitting in it. Light orange colour, the material is very comfy - I think it would be described as a narrow needle-cord. Its clean but there IS a catch. I fell off a bar-stool (food poisoning incident) and partly fell on the bean-bag, leaving a few small blood stains that didn't wholly wash out when I washed the cover. We've used it since then with the stains towards the wall - the bean-bag needs to be against a wall anyway if you want to use it like a chair. Because of the stains I'm offering it for free. It doesn't have an inner bag to hold the 'beans' so if you're handy with sewing perhaps you could treat the current bag as an 'inner' and make a new cover! No photo because its wrapped in plastic from when we shifted here a year ago. Now we're shifting again, and I want it gone. The stains are the only drawback, its beautifully comfy to sit in and the fabric is lovely. Its at the back of our box room but it would be available for collection from Burnside this weekend. Any takers? Ph 488 4353

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
