Absolute RIP OFF
Yesterday I purchased a 2kg Persil Ultimate soap powder from Paraparaumu Pak’n’Save for $11.99 on special.
The exact same product (not on special) from New World in Waikanae is selling for $19.09
A difference of $7.10 is a hell of a lot more if you aren’t able to shop around for specials. Just shows you the mark up on products if the product can be sold for the special price and the store is still making a profit.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
59.7% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
