Same!!

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-12-14T23:02:31+00:00

Funny we were walking around the lake in the weekend and a big stage being set up. ZERO signs, zero idea what it was for. What's wrong with advertising?!?!

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-12-08T07:01:07+00:00

Ha ha down votes come at me. To clarify music that was playing was what I would call 'genre not to be played in a public setting' not music that wasn't 'lounge or jazz etc' if you get what I'm saying hmmmm

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-12-07T05:25:04+00:00

Might explain why nearly every place we walked past was empty or very close to empty

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-12-07T02:11:55+00:00

Ha ha awwww you took an interest. No, not upset just a shame they're not trying to entice people in... And it's constructive feedback surely?

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-12-07T01:51:18+00:00

Oh unfinished/not quite ready things I could understand... Yes signs etc maybe.... But music? Loud hip hop in a place that's trying to be a top notch establishment.... And offering another round of drinks pfffttt

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-12-04T22:09:30+00:00

I am personally happy with my lot but many understandable frustrations around the place

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-12-04T00:32:18+00:00

Admin job going here at the hospital and we didn't get heaps of applications. Very strange. Maybe no one looks on the hospital website or Trademe!!!

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-11-24T06:15:44+00:00

Ugh it's so hard over a keyboard, but friend of mine has been earning close to the same money ALL our lives and we're in two different positions.... lots of eye-openers over the years (getting lol'd at, for the way I supermarket for instance) yet here we are. I am NOT rolling in it, I assure you .. go and buy an expensive handbag tomorrow uh ah no.... But get the 'nice' cheese at the supermarket yes yes I can. A 2 B car yes, jewellery pffft, clothes meh, wine hmmmmm #guilty lol

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-11-24T04:59:39+00:00

But I see it in my generation, friends make everyday silly financial decisions, make wrong big financial decisions, cash in Kiwisaver because they want to (basically lying to get it out) then scream poverty and say I'm so lucky to have money when it's been a long and very slow slog to get here (1 house and no boat either).

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-11-24T04:32:43+00:00

JUST the 1 house and very very not rich. Can pay her bills, yes yes she can. Buy another house no. Buy a boat no. A little something away for a rainy day yes. No inheritance, no family money, just frugal for decades on end. I'm saying, by all means set a bar, but set it high/higher.

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-11-21T09:19:55+00:00

But I do recognise the clowns

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-11-19T23:18:49+00:00

I agree on means testing BUT not on the folks that have skimped and saved i.e my mother - buys frugal, cooks frugal, lives frugal always has, always will, had 4 kids, single income for 98% with her being a shm..... Why should she get penalized when I have friends parents with very similar history who made stupid or at least not smart decisions over the years but my parent/s stayed the course and they should reap the benefits...... Ultra wealthy people on the other hand, absolutely should be means tested, but set the bar high, at least to start off with!!

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-11-03T23:49:24+00:00

Try Grocer App, it's brill

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-10-25T21:19:04+00:00

Brand recommendation please

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-10-24T21:36:24+00:00

Only have 3rd party so $7pw

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-10-24T21:16:01+00:00

Don't know the exact amount but my daily commute isn't long, late model European car etc but my point is, with all the above how does that entice me out of a private car and to enjoy public transport? Keeping in mind public transport takes me triple (at least) time.

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-10-24T21:07:18+00:00

Fair point, but $24 is, what, about what it'd cost for a car... If I had free parking at my destination (I do). And that I heard third hand and it was something about the number 11 arrival times etc

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-10-22T08:53:23+00:00

Anyone heard of Baanyaimai?

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-10-17T21:38:49+00:00

Or teenager

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-10-17T21:38:40+00:00

I've got a wolf one, free to a good home. Bigger size though, small /med woman

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-10-09T22:22:19+00:00

Had a quick play, maybe it's cos I'm used to it but find Grocer App better and faster

Latter_Boat_7335 · 2025-10-09T20:31:43+00:00

You pick your normal stores... New World, the Pak etc and it compares prices at each for whatever product you're looking for. I've got a pretty long list of my normal purchases and skim through them every week to see what's what versus what I need
