We got Costo card and in my first trip just buying basics , Toilet paper, shampoo, body wash, deoderant and baby nappies already made up savings to cover cost for yearly membership. What also helps is having lemon, lime and tangerine trees in the garden😊 Keep up the good work🎉

Eggs are super expensive right now because in 2012 the Government changed the animal welfare laws to outlaw battery cages, at the time 80% of eggs were laid in battery cages, so they allowed a ten year transition. Farmers started converting to colony cages or free range, but faced council planning consent delays lasting years, and in 2017 the Australian supermarket duopoly decided to implement their own rules banning anything but free range, after a third of the farmers had already converted to colony (some farms having spent $60million on the change already, others stuck with land shortages). Thus New Zealand is short about half a million laying hens or roughly 15-20%
