ON THE PIG'S BACK.

Linda from Henderson

Can anyone give me a sensible and valid reason for this scenario?

Can anyone give me a sensible and valid reason for this scenario?

Pensioner, who lives RIGHT next door to partner who is in a Rest Home gets a payment every fortnight on top of the pension, of $78.70 net for travel expenses. (2 mins walk).

Pensioner who has to travel several kilometres to see his or her partner by car or taxi gets exactly the same amount.

If this existed in a private business, it would be bankrupt in a very short time.

It is as easy as Googling the mileage, and setting the rate to suit.

Hey neighbours, It's been a long hard winter and for many, power bills have been going through the roof. Have you been affected?

Hey neighbours, It's been a long hard winter and for many, power bills have been going through the roof. Have you been affected?

We're looking into ways we can all keep these costs down for a story on Homed and would love to hear from you if you have particularly large or small bills.

Do your power bills come in way higher than your friends and family? Do you know why, or does the amount always take you by surprise? Maybe, like the family who created an effective solar panel heater out of drink cans, or the blogger who enjoys free power generated by a converted washing machine, you've found a creative way to minimise your bills. If so, how do you do it?

Whether your bills are high and you're looking for ways to reduce them, or you have some secrets to low power bills that you're willing to share, we'd love to hear from you. Email homed@stuff.co.nz and one of our reporters will be in touch.
