Poll: What are the living costs that are having the biggest (and perhaps surprising) impact on your wallet?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Butter, power bills, and those sneaky surcharges on your card ... it feels like everything’s creeping up in price lately. We’ve seen the headlines, but we want to hear it from you.

Butter, power bills, and those sneaky surcharges on your card ... it feels like everything’s creeping up in price lately. We’ve seen the headlines, but we want to hear it from you.

Overall, Most Kiwis say they’re ‘not prospering’. But, according to Retirement Commission data, some members of our community (women, Māori, and Pacific people) are experiencing worsening financial positions at elevated rates.

Stats NZ tells us that food prices have jumped 4.6% since this time last year, with meat and dairy doing most of the damage. This jump is hitting us all, but groceries are just one part of the picture.

When basic costs keep climbing, the old cost-saving tricks — like bulk-buying or stockpiling on sale — don’t always work. Who can afford to spend more upfront when every dollar already has a job?

We want to know: What costs have caught you off guard the most? What are the expenses that feel impossible to juggle right now?

Dear Neighbors
I'm asking with all sincerity and honesty as to whether anybody has
purchase any Household Funiture, Tools and other equipment from a supposed secret Sale by " SUPREME Lockups & Storage " over the last few months.
I've had a personel problem with the above outfit, and only became aware of the situation over the weekend, when I found a listing on "Fb " Groups page on the far right of the web-page, and happened to find all
my Fly Fishing gear up for sale, by an individual in Carterton.
I messaged him asking about the gear, and was soon removed of the site.
I'm sincerely asking, that if any of you have purchased anything from "Supreme Lockups" in this regard, I would "Dearly" like to purchase items back that was of my ownership.
Nobody who has been involved in any purchase's, will not be treated in nasty or unneccessary manner, as it's just I've got to try and retreive a lot
of Family History.
This is a situation that nobody in their live needs or wants this sort of situation to happen, so just ask you all from the bottom of my heart for your consideration.

Please, if you can help me, send me an email to "toy98peu@gmail.com"

Thanks
Kind Regards

The Government says it's scrapping those annoying card surcharges – and it’s happening next year.

Consumer NZ is stoked, saying these sneaky surcharges cost Kiwis around $65 million a year and should’ve been gone ages ago.

But not everyone’s convinced it’s a win. Labour and Hospitality NZ are worried the costs won’t just disappear. Labour MP Arena Williams put it simply: there should not be surcharges for customers at all. But she points out that the Government’s plan does not deal with banks and merchants “who still scoop a big fee”.

Many of our community are rocked by the recent announcement. Retailers warn card surcharge ban could lead to higher prices - the unfortunatel reality is that small businesses are feeling the squeeze along with their customers. In comparison, large retailers pay significantly lower banking fees and ultimately have more leverage at the negotiation table.

💸 So someone still pays – but who?

We want to know: Who should be covering this cost?
