Cut down your power bill this autumn!

Electric Kiwi

See our 5 top tips for cutting down your autumn power bill:

1. If you’re not using it, switch it off: If you’re not using an appliance, such as a heated towel, dryer, or TV, switch it off at the wall so it doesn’t use power on standby.

See our 5 top tips for cutting down your autumn power bill:

1. If you’re not using it, switch it off: If you’re not using an appliance, such as a heated towel, dryer, or TV, switch it off at the wall so it doesn’t use power on standby.

2. Change your cooking habits: Eat fresh veges instead of cooking. Using the oven for an hour a night can add $20 to your monthly power bill.

3. Use curtains to trap heat in: Let the sun heat your home during the day then close your curtains to stop the warmth escaping in the evening.

4. If you’re away, turn the hot water cylinder off: You can save up to $36 on your power bill if you switch your hot water cylinder off while away on weekends.

5. Make the most out of your FREE Hour of Power: Utilise power deals like Electric Kiwi’s free Hour of Power, which gives you one off peak hour of free power a day. Use this hour to heat your home, turn on the dishwasher, or run the washing machine and dryer.

Dark blue three and two seater couch set with cushions.

They are about 5 years old and in decent shape, lovingly used. There are some threads pulled on the arms- cat grrrr! They come from a smoke free home. Comfy and looking for a nice new home.

BTW: the photos were taken at different times of day hence why the bigger couch looks darker. They are both the same colour and the smaller one shows their colour better.

I am moving tomorrow so it would be so great if someone could pick it up tomorrow.

Bathroom tiler needed

Sandra from Matua

Does anyone know of a bathroom tiler who does a great job and doesn't charge the earth? We're about to start doing up our bathroom, but the tiler we thought we had has pulled out due to other work commitments. It's a fairly straight forward job. Thanks.
