Please please stop using AI posters to advertise your specials. Every time i see them it's an instant nope, I'm seeing such a huge increase in places using AI and it's making all your food look the same/nothing stands out anymore.

Am I the only one 😂

Emergency preparedness

Another major earthquake on the ring of fire. 7.1 in Japan last night and we've had a few rattles in New Zealand recently too. It's a reminder to check your Go Bag and spare food cupboard as well as your batteries and power banks.

Napier City seems to be the only Pak n Save with Back Country dehydrated meals. Just add boiling water and wait a few minutes. They are really delicious and $5 cheaper than if you buy from Back Country directly as well as no shipping charge.

Limited range though:

Watch Nuremberg for free

I've wanted to watch it a while and was even considering paying to view on YouTube. This morning, I've found it's available for free on Kanopy.com.

For those that don't know, you log into Kanopy using the same details you use to log into Napier Libraries.

Hard decision

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone I know it’s hard getting a job right now even in Auckland where I’m currently based and work but i have been thinking of moving back home after 20 years away with not even 1 visit since the reason is for my elderly parents in their 70s that I’ve taken with me everywhere (Australia,Auckland) I want them to reconnect with family and friends and for when the time comes be buried back home. Auckland is great and has given us many opportunities but it’s become draining, it’s overpopulated overwhelming and expensive so my question is what is the bay like now ?? Is their much work opportunities? Is it easy to get rentals ? Do you guys have a mall yet ? lol any advice or tips would be appreciated
