But how pricey are these items getting - what did you pay back in the day, and what's the most expensive one you've … View moreJandals. The good old Kiwi flip flop.

But how pricey are these items getting - what did you pay back in the day, and what's the most expensive one you've seen in the beach boutiques nowadays?

Giving high-priced ice creams a licking

Jonathan Milne Reporter from Sunday Star Times

We want to know what a day at the beach with the classics costs us.
So roll up, roll up ... there's nothing like licking a scoop of ice cream during the summer. How much do you pay at home, and when you are away? What is the most expensive ice cream you've bought on holiday?

In 2019, make a resolution to donate to The Foodbank Project that will make you feel good and will make a real difference in your community. It's easy to set up a recurring donation online for the frequency and amount that you choose.

Instead of doing something for herself this New Year (and struggling to keep the resolution), Ingrid is signing up to The Foodbank Project to donate a Small Family Bundle each month because it's a resolution she knows she can keep. Watch Ingrid's video here: www.facebook.com...

Watch: Is this the coolest thing to do in NZ?

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

What do you get when you combine go-carts with the luge, and race down the side of a ski mountain? It's called mountain carting; and it's easily the most fun Brook Sabin has ever had.

Hi neighbours,

What do you get when you combine go-carts with the luge, and race down the side of a ski mountain? It's called mountain carting; and it's easily the most fun Brook Sabin has ever had.

This cool ride is at Cardrona - the South Island ski resort. Although most Kiwis head there during the winter ski season, in the warmer months it's a summer playground. Click here to read all about it. Have you given this a go?

Now is a good time to make a basic will, especially if you don't already have one. And here’s an online resource that makes it possible - literally NOW! For just $49.45 incl GST! So don’t wait!

MAKE A WILL! Especially if you want to include step-children or whangai, or if you have repartnered or separated, or (males) if there could be other children you don't know about or don't want to know about, or if you don't have children and don't want your distant relatives to be the beneficiaries if you and your partner are both killed in the same tragic accident....

Answer the questions, download the Word document, print it, and sign it in front of two adults who are not beneficiaries in the will. (Confession time - we are selling it, but we didn't write it. We've tried it out and it's okay although there are bits we would tweak if we were writing it from scratch.)
