Absolute RIP OFF
Yesterday I purchased a 2kg Persil Ultimate soap powder from Paraparaumu Pak’n’Save for $11.99 on special.
The exact same product (not on special) from New World in Waikanae is selling for $19.09
A difference of $7.10 is a hell of a lot more if you aren’t able to shop around for specials. Just shows you the mark up on products if the product can be sold for the special price and the store is still making a profit.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?
