Poll: Are you paying too much for parking?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Cost of living has been on our minds lately, and one cost often lamented in our office is parking.

We all know that New Zealanders pay high parking fees! But research shows that the cost is driven by factors such as location, quality, and convenience.

The average daily parking fee being paid in CBDs:
$39.53 in Auckland,
$37.83 in Wellington,
and $32.60 in Christchurch.

But again, the range is wild! Aucklanders could be paying anything from $12 to $80, Wellingtonians from $15 to $50, and if you are in Christchurch, you are looking at $10 to $98.

Neighbours, we want to know: How much are you paying for daily parking fees?

Do you have any tips on how to find cheaper parks?

Don't overthink this riddle...

Ashleigh from The Neighbourly Riddler

I have a silver sole
but no feet,
I make my living by bringing the heat.
What am I?

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
