Let's spruce up your kids' bedroom with a dash of fun and loads of functionality!

Matt from Matt Wineera - Thats Real Estate with Matt Wineera

Ever thought about reviving old stuff or getting crafty with budget finds? It's a blast! Plus, there are no limits to your creativity!

Check out these cool ideas:

1. **Bedhead Makeover:** Hunt down a vintage timber bedhead at a thrift store. If it needs a little TLC, give it a sanding and coat it with your kid's favorite colour. Voila! Now it's not just a bedhead; it's a bookshelf too! Perfect for storing their treasures.

2. **Funky Display Shelf:** Grab a circular shelf and jazz it up with a splash of paint. It's like creating a piece of art that's also functional! Easy peasy.

3. **Floating Desk Magic:** All you need is a sturdy benchtop and some support underneath. Mount it on the wall, and hey presto! Add a pegboard for hanging headphones, artwork, or any other knick-knacks your kid loves.

4. **Art Corner Fun:** Turn a boring alcove into an art haven with chalkboard paint. Instant creativity zone!

5. **Comfy Bench Seat:** Create a cosy spot for reading and playing. Lay a bookshelf on its side, top it with a foam mattress, and cover it up. Now you've got a comfy seat with built-in storage for books and toys. Win-win!

With these ideas, your kids' room will be the coolest spot in the house!

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.

πŸ›‘οΈ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:​​
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes​​
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device​​
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.

If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? πŸ›»πŸš¨πŸš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
