The Biggest Little Frock - Update

Zebunisso from Waikanae

as previously posted, we have been working on the date and got an approval hence the update on the Biggest Little Frock in Waikanae which will be Waikanae Beach Hall, 22a Raupara St, On Saturday 17th August starting from 7 p.m.
Below are the details that may answer some of the questions some of you may have
How to be part of The Biggest Little Frock Swap in Waikanae Beach!
1. Message or email us to reserve your ticket. We’ll send you the bank account details to deposit money. Once deposited, we’ll send you your ticket and the drop off addresses. Note: your space isn’t guaranteed until we have received payment. Now, let the fun begin!

2. The next step is to declutter your wardrobe. We’ve all got items that aren’t past their “use by” date, yet we never wear. Maybe we’ve lost or gained a few kilos, or we never have the right occasion. And we’ve all fallen guilty to that impulse buy that never sees the light of day.

If this seems a little daunting, invite that one friend around to make a night of it. You’ll need wine, a full length mirror and chocolate to really embrace this process.

3. Ensure your swaps are in good condition (no holes, stains, broken zips, etc). They should be clean and recently ironed (if necessary). Then drop them off to one of the drop-off points at LEAST one week prior to the Frock Swap.

POINTERS:

1. Your items don’t have to be frocks (any item of clothing is accepted, and accessories such as hats, jewelry, scarfs, bag and shoes are also welcome).

2. Your items don’t have to be “designer” – we’ll accept everything from The Warehouse to World, Kmart to Karen Walker!

3. There is no set number of items you need to donate, but we recommend 3+, so that we have a good selection for you to shop from.

4. The number of items you donate is not linked to the number you can free shop (frop?) on the night.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
