This one is pretty simple. You're a Neighbourly member so connecting with your community is obviously pretty important to you. So this tip is more of a challenge; this year (or this weekend!) make it your mission to meet someone new living near you.

Here's a few things you can do to get you started:
- use the Neighbours Directory to find neighbours on your street.
- introduce yourself on Neighbourly to those living in your neighbourhood. Just a few words about yourself and what brought you here.
- Give something away or sell something! A Neighbourly exchange gives you a chance to meet someone new.
- just head out the door and knock on someone else's!

Remember 86% of Kiwis want to get to know their neighbours better, but just don't see them around much (71%). Take the first step!

Since 1980, 93 people have drowned while trying to save another person. Typically it is the person in trouble that survives, and the would-be rescuer that drowns.
Most of these people would still be alive today if they followed this one piece of advice; only enter the water if you have some form of flotation. You don’t see lifeguards attempting a rescue without equipment.
Providing flotation to a person interrupts the drowning process buying valuable time to either plan how to get the person back to shore, or wait until rescue services arrive.

* Use good images to ensure your items really stand out
* Share an description of each item you are selling including details of its condition
* Add a price for your listing
* If you have multiple items to sell, group these into a single post and itemise the unique items you have for sale with their sale price.
* Once an item has sold, remember to mark it as SOLD (just click on the three little dots under your post)
* Consider listing an unsold item in the Free Stuff category if you're keen to see it moved along.
* Once a neighbourly has confirmed they'd like to purchase your item, share details using your Neighbourly Inbox
