Poll: Would you shop at a Te Rapa Pak'nSave?
The long-awaited Pak’nSave development in Te Rapa has hit another roadblock, with a speed limit reversal leaving the project “at significant risk”.
Hamilton City Council approved the supermarket with conditions including a controversial speed limit reduction to 60kph on Wairere Drive.
Would you shop at a Te Rapa Pak'nSave? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
