Produce Bags - made from 100% re-purposed fabric

Annie from Silverstream

If you’re like me and turn up at the supermarket with your re-usable grocery bags but still find yourself needing to use those plastic produce bags. Well, finally I got around to solving this problem for myself and I’ve made extras, so you can solve that problem for yourself too!

All made from 100% repurposed textiles supplied by Bespoke Curtains Upper Hutt. Fabrics may vary accordingly. You can specify a preferred colour combination once you've added them to your cart.

$40 for 6 bags – 2 large 42x35 cm, 2 medium 31x30 cm, 2 small 23x20 cm

$5/pack sold goes to Fuel the Need. A charity in Upper Hutt providing school lunches.

See you at the hokomaha (supermarket)!

Oh, and don’t forget to weigh all your produce naked, every bag you use adds cents to your grocery bill, including those flimsy plastic ones. Weigh nude, then pack those bad boys. See our blog page for more information on this.

Price: $40

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

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?

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.
