Hey neighbours, It's been a long hard winter and for many, power bills have been going through the roof. Have you been affected?

We're looking into ways we can all keep these costs down for a story on Homed and would love to hear from you if you have particularly large or small bills.

Do your power bills come in way higher than your friends and family? Do you know why, or does the amount always take you by surprise? Maybe, like the family who created an effective solar panel heater out of drink cans, or the blogger who enjoys free power generated by a converted washing machine, you've found a creative way to minimise your bills. If so, how do you do it?

Whether your bills are high and you're looking for ways to reduce them, or you have some secrets to low power bills that you're willing to share, we'd love to hear from you. Email homed@stuff.co.nz and one of our reporters will be in touch.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Such a brilliant idea and stops fruit and veg going to waste in gardens in our area. (Think citrus at the moment!) The contact person is Mark Dennis. He started the first stand and it's taken off on the North Shore but nothing in our area yet. I would love to manage a stand but we live down a driveway so not a good spot. Would love to hear from others who are keen to get this started!
