A BIG Shout out to Dave, our Cookie Time Rep, who donated a box of original cookies to our PaknSave Kilbirnie store team members.

Under the leadership of Dean and Brett our staff are working extra hard to make sure the public can be safe while visiting our store, as well as making sure that as quickly as stock arrives it is put out on the shelves for purchase.
Please be kind to our staff. It’s a tough day when someone grumbles/gets angry at us. Most things are outside of our control. We are all doing the best we can inside Alert Level 4. If it takes a few extra minutes to get your shopping scanned (due to sanitising the checkout in between shoppers) then it’s because we want to ensure the conveyor belt, screen and eftpos keypad are virus free.
Please be kind to your fellow shoppers too. They are in just the same situation as you.
To those customers who thanked me today as they saw me walking around the store, I’m glad I got to give you a smile or chuckle too.

So what exactly does essential work look like for us? Stuff attended a leak repair that water service person Mafutaga Laufiso and service delivery manager Steve Watt were working on to see what it’s like carrying out this essential work.

A big swell on the South Coast is causing large waves to crash onto the road between Breaker Bay and Owhiro Bay.

The section of Breaker Bay Road and Moa Point Road between Mantell St (Seatoun) and Cochrane St (Lyall Bay) and the Esplanade between Owhiro Bay, Island Bay and Houghton Bay is now closed.
Please avoid the entire South Coast and stay safe at home in your bubble.
Police and contractor are working to keep the area safe and a clean-up crew will remove the debris when the tide recedes.

With numerous gigs, concerts and festivals postponed or cancelled as a result of the level 4 response, we want you to dance the lockdown away with the new Neighbourly Spotify Playlist! Make your suggestions in the comments below - recommend anything you like on there, as well as tunes you think your Neighbours will enjoy. Chuck in some taste-breakers, one-hit wonders or some good old Kiwi classics - it really doesn’t matter. So if you’re running out of ideas on things to do, why not a dance party?
Just remember: keep it PG, refrain from putting any songs in the mix that may cause offence to your Neighbours. You can find the playlist here.
Happy raving NZ!

Roads have been closed, and our trucking operations from the Moa Point treatment plant and the Southern Landfill are taking an alternative route along State Highway 1 and up through Brooklyn (pictured below) until the coast road can be cleaned up and reopened. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
Stay safe everyone, and thanks to local residents for their patience and understanding.
