That’s interesting that they change the prices based on the days of the week!!

@@emilyinnz they had some good specials, tegal oven ready sage and onion chicken $10, 20 free range mixed grade eggs 9.99, 2l canola 5.99, unfortunately my dog will only eat the most expensive brand and that had gone up, 12.25 for 6 x 100 trays, its got so expensive it is actually cheaper to by her chicken breasts or rump steak

Oh wow!!

Pretty unusual

Thanks

Thank you for coming over to watch. I’ll check out your channel. I’m keen to support more people on this RUclips journey.

@@emilyinnz 💜

Good luck keep it up. Consistency and learning whilst posting is the best thing I’ve learnt.

Silverdale

@@emilyinnz never been to that one. looks bigger than lincoln rd which was suppose to be the biggest in nz

It’s pretty big. I haven’t been to the Lincoln told one. But I also have Albany and warkworth (the new one) close by and they are smaller than silverdale. I’ve heard of people driving out of their way to the go to the silverdale one!

@@emilyinnzit looks good i must visit it one day, just got back from lincoln rd and the only real bargain was my mocona coffee at 6.99 where it was 10.99 last week, at countdiwn its 14.73, l feel sorry for anybody who has to shop there

Oh wow! I’ve just filmed a shop at New World and I couldn’t believe how expensive exactly the same item is compared to Pak n Save and Foodstuffs owns both supermarkets 🤷‍♀️ the video will go live in a few weeks.

Yes I remember from when I was at uni. I would cook a batch and freeze mini meals. But then I’d have to eat the same thing everyday it was so boring!!

I’ve noticed that. I have 2 to choose from. The other week I went in on a Sunday bought a cucumber for $2.50 then next day I popped back in the cucumbers were $3.50! Just overnight.

No it’s not! New Zealand’s supermarkets are expensive this was a “cheap” shop by NZ standards.

I’ve asked Google and got an answer which varies for region saying it’s $50k when averaged out. This shop was in Auckland where the salaries are higher but living costs are very high across the country and all food is taxed which is another reason it’s so high. Living at the bottom of the world the cost to import food is expensive that’s why a lot of the fruit and veg you see me buying is seasonal and grown locally.

@@emilyinnz not only imported food, food we export is often cheaper over seas than we can buy it locally. l saw an english food critic review. frozen nz lanb shanks that were 7 pounds there and they sold for 27 dollars at countdown and 21 at paknsave

😱 I noticed that with wine, I went back to the UK this time last year and Marlborough Sauv was cheaper in tescos!

We got there about 11am, parking was OK we got lucky and drove to the top and found and space! This weekday was a public holiday so normally parking isn’t an issue.

Thanks, I realised after I put it live that my music balance was out in my editing software 🤦‍♀️

I’m so glad you found it useful. Have a great trip. Come and visit New Zealand on your next trip.

Thanks for watching and commenting. We use the back section for the kids to sleep in their bunks. Yes we have had to do some weight balancing moving stuff around putting stuff in the car instead.

It usually looks pretty good. Had a bit of a wet weekend this weekend, but I’m from England so I don’t think it’s too bad.

Great video. Didn’t realise you could find snow on North Island as well as South Island.

Yes 2 ski fields on the north island both on Mt Ruapehu.

And you featured in this video you are a star again!

Welcome and thank you for subscribing I really appreciate it.

Thanks for the sub!

🤫 my favourite one is Kerosene creek.

It was so much fun. The water was a salt water mild chlorine combination which make it so sparkly and so warm!! We were so lucky by going a day early and I couldn’t believe I had the place to myself!!

Thanks for watching. Do you not have an equivalent? Not having been to target I thought this might be similar. In the summer it’s common, in the city it’s less so but near the beach I have seen people (and have done myself) popped into the supermarket bare foot. It’s a chilled lifestyle especially in the middle of summer. But it’s middle of winter right now and I’m currently wearing my uggs. 🤣🥾

@@emilyinnz We do have a Walmart and a Target. I guess there was something about Kmarts, maybe because they were around the longest. Yeah, I've spent a lot of time in Florida and going barefoot is more common than here in Virginia where I'm at now.. You'll still see it, especially now because it's Summer here, but Florida is very much more laid back. I go without shoes as much as possible... haha, getting sometimes the occasional stare or comment. Well hang in there, Spring is less than two months away for you!! 👣 Thanks again for sharing... Love your country!

⁠thank you for watching and enjoying NZ, I have loads more videos coming from this beautiful country and our adventures plus loads on my channel already. Thanks winter isn’t too bad - I’m from England and living in Auckland is a temperate climate which I love! It’s a bit chilly today but full sun we’re planning on taking the boat out.

Thanks for subscribing glad you enjoyed it. It’s been very confusing calling it Woolies I keep forgetting!! Pak n save is a favorite of mine will film a visit soon.

Really I didn’t know that. I wonder if it’s a different company under the same name.

😱 that’s a mad price!

Don't know where sky came from!!!!! Predictive text without my specs😂😂😂

Thank you. Yes we live the dream. But we have a normal boring life of work and daycare in between! We stayed in accommodation as it’s 4 hours from Auckland. I didn’t really make a thing of the accommodation in the video because it wasn’t anything to shout about. I just prefer staying in our caravan. But can’t take the boat and the caravan!

🤣🤣

How exciting for you!! Yes they have Kmart in Christchurch and Woolworths all over the place on both islands with the same stock. Also a supermarket called Freshchoice is owned by Woolworths and in more rural towns it’s more common then Woolworths. I go to Christchurch monthly with work and I’m planning a 4 week road trip around the South Island at Christmas which I will film it all. What will be your nearest city or big town?

Thanks so much for your reply😊 I am moving to Ashburton.

Thanks for watching I’m not sure of the average cost but I did a video where I shopped at low price supermarket and it was still expensive! I’ve put a link below. Next week I’m doing a video where I shop at a medium price supermarket to show the cost. ruclips.net/video/tTu15DK2YcE/видео.htmlsi=As8i51pv5dHf4Vup

the average wont be helpful here as groceries can be very seasonal in NZ a cucumber can cost 7.99 in some months and 1.50 in season

Thanks 😁

Yes they do

Thank you. Yes there are places which remind me then there are places which look like Scandinavia. Such variety.

Thank you. It really is and so much of New Zealand is like this.

Many thanks!

lol 🤣 the weather was a bit warmer but still wet! Have you seen the video where I am in Loughborough in August last year and it Absolutely freezer and pouring with rain! I flew 12,000 miles to be reminded of a British summer! ruclips.net/video/wT-JBKwwzAY/видео.htmlsi=8oLeksIzc-pntApr

I did and yes I feel ur pain, so sick of rain!

Thank you.

Reminded me of the last time we went on a vintage train and you were with us!

Thanks. My phone isn’t unlimited it slows after 5GB and it’s a work phone anyway so might get me into trouble 🤦‍♀️

It’s had one for a while at one point it was the only one in Auckland. It’s a big one and always busy! I imagine there is a lot of new shops since 2011 Sylvia park is huge (for NZ standards) now.

@@emilyinnz Yeah I remember Sylvia Park being quite big, I imagine it has gotten bigger. Oh really, did the Kmart in Papatoetoe/Hunter's Corner close down?

I’ve never seen to that one. Just googled it, it’s still open. I didn’t realised that was the first one.

@@emilyinnz Haha yes that one has been there for years. I remember going to that one when I was a child, I'm in my 40's now.

Fair point, but I have a British accent!

They certainly are I’m not being fair comparing them to a kiwi!
