Would you dare?

Trupti Biradar Reporter from Stuff Travel

It's a cross between a fighter jet and torpedo - that looks like a shark - and this Queenstown ride has been discounted to encourage more Kiwis to travel.

Say goodbye to tyre waste

Tyrewise

About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.

The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.

Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.

🔌FREE $50 OFF ANY ELECTRICAL WORK - LIMIT 7🔌

Kate from Illuminate Ltd

Have you got any electrical faults, downlight replacing, outdoor lighting, switchboard upgrades that need servicing?

If so, then we’ve got you covered!


We’ve been busy here at Illuminate but we’ve had a big house job put on hold until next week which means a couple of our tradesmen will be knocking around the workshop for the next few days.

We’d rather they were kept busy so we’ll give you $50 of your bill for any work booked in for next week.

Plus we’ll do a free Switchboard Inspection (valued at $79) while we’re at your place to check the safety standards.

📞Call us on 09 238 3384 to book or send a message mentioning this post to get the discount.

If you know of someone that needs any electrical work done, tag them in this post. 💡🛠️
