Hey neighbours!
I'm going to be in Rotorua this weekend and looking for the best breakky spots. I'm a real sucker for a good eggs bene and anything halloumi-related.
Thanks! :)

Using my last month's readings, I found Energy Club would have cost me $2.40 (1.3%) more for the month.
Curiously, their "electricity at cost" prices were higher than my current provider for inclusive (3.53 cents higher per kWh) and controlled (4.47 cents higher per kWh). I compared GST inclusive prices. Kinda makes one question their claimed point of difference, being that they don't add markup like other companies do.
Their daily club fee is certainly a lot lower than my provider's daily charge, but not enough to counter the higher kWh charges.

She lacked self-confidence. ‘‘I had a negative mind set in which I had beliefs that I would never be successful at anything, with a very low self-esteem. ‘‘I made excuses because I had no motivation and little confidence and I let life pass me by even if it was a wonderful opportunity because I was so afraid of the unknown.’’
Not anymore! Prasad, 18, and the youngest in a family of five, is now working as a caregiver while studying a foundation course at NZMA for occupational therapy and has realised she ‘‘could do anything’’. She is the first in her family to go to university. The South Auckland teen has found her potential with the help of our Foundation that aims to transform young Kiwi lives.
