Jo Haywood Reporter from Homed

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

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.

We’re local, we’re friendly and we’re here to provide the best possible products and service!

We have the latest offerings in everything you could imagine, and a huge space! Recently, a large selection of new mattresses arrived at the Brighton Mall showroom. If you thought getting a new, super snugly warm mattress was going to cost the earth, think again! Our single inner-sprung mattresses start at $99.

Surrounding them are a variety of the latest Steiner chairs, heavy wooden drawers, industrial and rustic tables and minimalist items in the Scandinavian style. Subtle hues and bursts of colour reflect global trends and boutique tastes.

“Our whole philosophy is to keep overheads down so people can get the same items that are in a higher-end store, but cheaper.

Come in and enjoy... you’ll be so glad you did.

The confronting truth of what happened in our recent past is something New Zealanders have to reckon with. When the Treaty of Waitangi was signed, Māori owned more than 66 million acres of land. By 1975, almost 97 per cent had been sold or taken.

Ngāi Tahu is an iwi whose rohe (area) extends over most of the South Island. In the 1840s, the Crown made a number of large purchases of Ngāi Tahu land. But in the end, the Crown deceived Ngāi Tahu - leaving them landless and impoverished...

Find out more about what happened to Ngāi Tahu, where you live, and how much the land was settled for - it may surprise.

The move comes after much public debate on the appropriateness of firearms being brought into schools, including when soldiers taught children as young as nine how to assemble and shoot assault rifles at a leadership exercise in Palmerston North last year. However students can still use firearms as part of shooting clubs and competitions. Click here to read the full article and guidelines.

So what do you think of the new rules? Are you for or against them?
