Households are being told to shop around for better power deals as some power companies lifted their prices in April. On the flip side, smaller companies like Electric Kiwi won't be raising power prices this year and are challenging the big power companies to do the same.

I certainly did, exploring rural Franklin with the family, on a road trip through Waingaro to Raglan on sunny Easter Monday, which followed an outing to the picturesque Awhitu lighthouse at the tip of the Manukau Heads the day before.
Both are beautiful spots, and we enjoyed stunning drives getting to our coastal destinations on our Easter weekend adventures.
We have another short week this week - and next, with Anzac Day on Tuesday, April 25.
The district has a proud history in acknowledging our war time heroes and each year the local RSAs do a fabulous job paying tribute to those who sacrificed so much. We’ll have full coverage of Anzac events online next week and in print on Thursday.
*To accommodate the public holiday on Tuesday, we are publishing on Monday next week.
Cheers, Julie :)

I have had the opportunity to become a sales representative for Avon for Thames and the Surrounding Areas.
Firstly what is Avon you may ask?
This is the company that puts mascara on lashes and food on tables. That fights wrinkles with one hand and breast cancer with the other. That knows the value of a perfect lip, but still opens its mouth and speaks out against domestic violence and for women's financial independence. This is the company that not only brings beauty to doors, but also opens them. The company that supports 6 million Representatives worldwide. This is Avon. The company that for 130 years has stood for beauty, innovation, optimism and, above all, for women.
How it works?
Every few weeks a brochure is released with New Sales, Giveaways and New products. You pay after delivery for the products you have received.
I have been buying Avon myself for a few years now. I use to spend roughly $80 on Foundation, now I just got 2 bottles for $31 NZD, it still protects my sensitive skin, is SPF 40, and conceals the odd spot. I am in love!!
