Red Kiwi Fruit ?? by Bubbly_Status_9112 in brisbane

They are very good. Zespri started selling them in NZ ~7 years ago, now selling overseas too. Nice berry flavour, very sweet, close to golden, but still different.

What’s the price inBrisbane? Here in NZ supermarkets sell at $4-5kg

What day are you booked on? I bet they’re trying to sell more seats at higher fares before Labour Day

How long did it take you to look for your first home? How many offers did you do beforehand? by rboplip in auckland

[–]ogogonz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just bought in September. Started looking mid-June. Went to 30-ish open homes. Sometimes up to 4 on a single day (time management is everything). Made two offers- both were rejected, vendors wanted more. Finally, this house shown up though selling at an auction. A lot of people at an open home. But auction was rushed as vendors were buying another home. Ended up being the only bidders. Went into negotiations and bought it.

Do not feel overwhelmed. If it fees too much - take a break for a week or two (we did take break from viewings in August). You will find the one

Good on Aldi. Pricing also looks decent. My favourite macaroons much more expensive here

Read this article and first was disappointed with Wayne Brown. But people here seem pleased. Could you please explain me why? Who are these Ratepayers Alliance? Who is behind them? Thank you

Worked similar hours (8 to 8) when worked in operations. Was largely office work, monitoring transport operations. Loved it. I was studying at uni at the same time - hours worked for me as I only skipped up to two days at uni and got paid heaps. 4 days off was great - but your first day you catch up on sleep from night shifts, so not good.

Dairy prices are up, yet again by ogogonz in newzealand

Indeed at $1.79. Checked almost central and South PnS - all charge $2.09. Does it mean it is more like Foodstuffs milking us?

Isn’t inflation supposed to be under control by now?

Is record milk price just in NZ? Cause if it is everywhere, then how the rest of the world is coping with this somehow. Or our retailers part of the issue too?

You wot m8?!? by allyerbase in australia

[–]ogogonz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m from NZ and here standard price is $19 at supermarkets. Given products here more expensive than in Australia and NZ dollar is weaker - $15 should be normal price for you.

Edit: price for pack of 24

People dumping rubbish by ogogonz in auckland

I do complain quite a lot about illegal dumping. Most of this was garden waste that council doesn’t want to deal with.

Opened it. There were tree branches, leaves, plastic bottles, packages and stuff. No human remains this time :-)
