Keep NZ homes stink bug free

Biosecurity New Zealand

The brown marmorated stink bug is a pest that can infest your home in the thousands, stinks when crushed, and is almost impossible to get rid of. It is also a major threat to our fruit and vegetable industries.

It’s not in New Zealand yet and we want to keep it that way. It hibernates inside … View more

Razer Kraken Gaming Headset **Brand new**

Maximus from Khandallah

Hello neighbors, my name is Maximus. I recently got a new headset from my parents that I wouldn’t like as I have just got another new one.

The one I would like to sell is brand new and unopened, has a 2 year warranty and retails at 160 so buying it at 130 or near offer would be a bargain.

Black snakeskin shoes with a heel

Gillian from Karori

I bought these Ziera shoes for $240 and have worn them twice. Alas, they are not for me and so time to pass them on. Size 39. Styley snakeskin finish; a good work shoe with glam. Some nice inner padding. Comfort - a style chosen by long standing air hostesses, I'm told, and they would know … View moreI bought these Ziera shoes for $240 and have worn them twice. Alas, they are not for me and so time to pass them on. Size 39. Styley snakeskin finish; a good work shoe with glam. Some nice inner padding. Comfort - a style chosen by long standing air hostesses, I'm told, and they would know the need for a good shoe!  Maybe they'll suit you?

Price: $65

Do you have a reasonably priced spare room for rent?

Christine from Wadestown

Hi neighbours. I'm a 34y/o, friendly, independent, professional.

I had to leave my flat as owners were selling and I've been staying with friends and house-sitting while I look to try and buy a place but now I need to find a room to rent from the weekend of the 27th. Hoping to find something cheap enough that I can keep my stuff in storage and avoid being locked into a lease, can you help please? Hope to hear from you, thanks in advance :-)

Wanted: Darning tool, Speedweve or similar

Ginny from Ngaio

Hi neighbours,
I’m doing the “no new clothes” challenge and so I’m wanting to expand my mending skills. I’m looking for an old-fashioned Speedweve darning tool (it’s a tiny weaving loom attached to a darning knob). I’m happy to pay a reasonable amount for one. Please pm me. Thanks!

CarePark at 70 Tory Street Wellington

Selwyn from Khandallah

Did you park at CarePark on Monday 22nd April 2019 (Easter Monday)?

Did you park at CarePark on Monday 22nd April 2019 (Easter Monday)?

When I entered the building, I saw a big sign that said "Flat Rate $6", but when I exited the building six hours later, I was charged $24!

I have been in email contact with CarePark Disputes since that time and they are very firm:
"The $6 flat rate is weekend parking only.
The weekend rate does not apply on public holidays
You would have been charged at the rate of $4 per hour"

To me this is a blatant breach of the The Fair Trading 1986 Act "makes it illegal for businesses to mislead or deceive you, and requires them to make sure the information they provide is accurate, and that they don't withhold important information".

I am sure that I'm not the only person who was deceived re the parking charge on that day! I have filed a complaint with the Commerce Commission. It's not a matter of a measly $18 - it's a matter of misleading advertising and being ripped off!

Graeme Dingle Foundation

The schools involved were Kelston Girls College, Northcote College and Waitakere College, and the activities they took part in included; tramping, water activities and a solo camping night.

Congrats to all those involved. We hope you all had an amazing time!
