The great people in Whangarei

Glen from Central Whangarei

I put this post on FB last Saturday. It has been very popular so I have decided to share it here on neighborly. as below.

Feeling blessed today I went into the Whangarei CBD on my mobility scooter went to my favorite cafe Fresh for takeouts the staff were lovely. I sat on my scooter in the sun and watched the shoppers go by while I ate.
So many smiling happy people, then off to Motown for a haircut and more happy people.

Then Pak N Save again on my mobility scooter, it can be difficult to reach high areas 4 different women helped me at different times all with a smile.

Then headed home while going through the town basin my hat blew off, by the time I was able to turn around a young lady asked if she could get it for me.

All assistance today was appreciated thank you the people of Whangarei

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.

Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.

So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?

Poll: Does grocery bagging affect where you shop?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.

Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.
