Something I am sure you all know, but just incase, do look to the back or bottom of displays in supermarkets for fresher goods. Natutally the shops restock from the back so that is where you will find the freshest goods. Also be cautious of open top display freezers for products like icecream. I have bought a particular product from a particular supermarket that has often had a gritty/sandy texture to the icecream. This happens when it has been stored improperly and then refrozen. I now no longer shop for frozen goods there. There are other supermarkets that have enclosed frezzers with doors. After all, you would not leave the door of your freezer at home wide open!

Hi everyone,
Hokitika has been named the most welcoming town in NZ in Booking.com's 10th annual Traveller Review Awards.
Would be keen to hear from those who live there or who have visited whether they think the town really is exceptionally friendly. What makes it a welcoming place, or otherwise? Were there any cafes, restaurants, shops or other places you received a particularly warm welcome?
Lake Tekapo and Oamaru came in second and third place respectively, followed by Cambridge, Picton, Invercargill, Martinborough, Kerikeri and Palmerston North. Would also love to hear from you if you have thoughts on these places. Please include 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you don't want it to appear in a travel article.
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts?

Check expiry dates and receipts at super markets closely.

Jon from The Wood

Just a quick reminder to check expiry dates and the price you are actually pay when shopping at supermarkets. In these covid times I understand that the vast profits made by these shops has taken a bit of a hit but that is no excuse for selling out of date yogurt or salad that will be past its … View moreJust a quick reminder to check expiry dates and the price you are actually pay when shopping at supermarkets. In these covid times I understand that the vast profits made by these shops has taken a bit of a hit but that is no excuse for selling out of date yogurt or salad that will be past its best in 24 hours. There are many other examples. That was just this morning. Rather low practice.
