The Tyre Clinic provides fantastic services

Peter from Aotea

I've just come back from Jason at the team at the Tyre Clinic at Wall Place in Kenepuru. thetyreclinic.co.nz... FANTASTIC SERVICE. The total price was v competitive and the service was excellent.

FANTASTIC SERVICE. The total price was v competitive and the service was excellent. Jason took the time to understand my driving patterns and recommend a mid-price tyre that would be best value over the life of the tyre. They also provide FREE 2-monthly checks with tyre pressure and wheel rotations. This lengthens tyre life and safety - and further increases value for money. And they are lovely to deal with.

I used to be a loyal customer at Tony's but have found that, since they changed ownership, the service has gone down and total price has possibly gone up. Quoted price might be lower but some firms push services like alignments when they aren't necessary.

Give them a call on 04 2321133, or jason@thetyreclinic.co.nz

As the nonprofit, low-fee KiwiSaver provider, our mission is to provide a better choice for Kiwis. We’re about making members wealthier, not lining shareholder pockets.

So we’ve just announced our 5th fee cut in 5 years. From 1 April, we’re lowering our total fund charge to 0.30% across our Conservative, Balanced and Growth KiwiSaver Funds and our diversified investment funds. Says Sam Stubbs, Simplicity MD: “Being a KiwiSaver manager involves huge economies of scale. Fee cuts in our industry should be frequent, but they aren’t.”

Simplicity believes in passing on the benefits of scale to our members – and we’re on track for further fee cuts in the future. Check out more details on our blog now!

Poll: Should we scrap daylight saving?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This Sunday we'll be putting our clocks back for the end of daylight saving. Despite the benefits of an extra hour of sun during daylight saving, these clock changes commonly bring disruptions to our households and sleep - some feel that it should be scrapped altogether. What do you think?

Honey and Apple cider Vinegar
Sip on one cup of warm water mixed with 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and a tablespoon of honey. Both apple cider vinegar and honey have antibacterial properties that may help soothe a sore throat. *Water should always be used to dilute the acidity of apple cider vinegar.
Many consider apple cider vinegar and honey to be a tasty combination, as the sweetness of honey helps mellow vinegar’s puckery taste.
