Cost of living has been on our minds lately, and one cost often lamented in our office is parking.

We all know that New Zealanders pay high parking fees! But research shows that the cost is driven by factors such as location, quality, and convenience.
The average daily parking fee being paid in CBDs:
$39.53 in Auckland,
$37.83 in Wellington,
and $32.60 in Christchurch.
But again, the range is wild! Aucklanders could be paying anything from $12 to $80, Wellingtonians from $15 to $50, and if you are in Christchurch, you are looking at $10 to $98.
Neighbours, we want to know: How much are you paying for daily parking fees?
Do you have any tips on how to find cheaper parks?

A Waikato man says dust from a massive chicken farm near his home has left him with a permanent lung disease, and his neighbours say they’re suffering too.
David Gibney told a resource consent hearing on Tuesday that he had “healthy lungs” before the Mainland Poultry farm was built.
What began as a humorous Facebook group poking fun at poor parkers has grown into one of Waikato’s most active online communities, with nearly 42,000 members.
But not everyone thinks the laughs are landing any more.
