Newbolds 100% Upper Hutt
Hey Neighbours.
Just been asked by a few customers to put this on here as a few people might not be aware.
Mike and myself with our families own 100% Newbolds in Upper Hutt.
We are as local as you can get. We are not part of a chain, but a buying group. We sell Televisions, audio, whiteware and kitchen appliances.
We employ 18 locals and do all our business locally, supporting local Electricians, plumbers, servicemen, heatpump installers and local business. We also support local charities. We take your old appliances away and either recycle them or recondition them.
This has created 8 local jobs and filled a store in the main street. No other appliance store does this.
We also just won the consumers people's choice award for the 6th year running.😁
We love matching prices and deliver and install all around Wellington. Our delivery team is amazing.
If you haven't been in to meet us, please come in and say hi. We would love to have your business and can guarantee you will be impressed with what we have right here in Upper Hutt.
Get the 100% kiwi experience.
Toa rohe, toa Orongomai

🧩😏 Riddle me this, Neighbours…
I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?
