Thanks for the comment, I definitely will! I’ve been wondering how different the OZ shop is. Cheers :)

I did!! Although because she came so quick I hemmoraged too much blood, ended up in surgery afterwards anyways 🫣 I’m so glad I was at hospital!! But I loved the water for pain relief. It was a cool experience.

Hi! Sorry this took me ages to respond, I’m barely here anymore ( babies lol) I’m guessing this is more of a flat changing pad? Still I reckon the measurements would work, so the square you would cut out would be 2x2. Hopefully that’s right :) congrats on baby x

Ahhh amazing. Yes cost of food is outrageous here, you have to be so savvy to get a deal especially on meat!

I need to look that recipe up! Thanks for sharing. My family got a bit sick of dates by the end of the box 😂but now I’m craving them again!

13 years and fully a citizen as of last year 😍

Totally agree with you. Food is just so expensive. I still think eating out, even fast food is more expensive than making it at home..Just getting my kids happy meals the other day was $20 and they were starving an hour later 😒 I don’t know how people are surviving with the cost of food atm!

@@ingzing I used to spend $150 just on myself I don't buy meat anymore because its to expensive I only splash out on my girlfriend and her kids when they are staying 🙂

Are they? I dont buy bread, and few vegetables if at all. This means I can eat filling animal and animal products which are vital. Its all about prioritising foods which satiate over processed stuff. Theres actually a reason certain ingredients are added to foods, they tend to make you hungrier long term and cause leptin derangements. The "full" feeling hormone.

Brilliant. I have to try it one of these days, I love carrot cake! Thanks for the comment 😊

😂😂 she wanted to be seen!

Me too! I wonder if we were there around the same time? There was so many people 🤪

I wonder if she will appreciate it, being a Sagittarius… 😂😂

😍😍😍😍 thank you for the lovely comment!

I almost bought the white baskets but figured I should at least use what I already had 😅😅 I love the white baskets though.

Thanks! I’m hoping to go back soon to see if anything has changed and get a better look at the meat 😊

@@ingzing That sounds great! Would you say Costco is mostly groceries? I was curious about the electronics and extra bits and bobs they sell 🧐

There is definitely a big section for electronics and gadgets, decor, that kind of thing. I think the purpose is to make it as random and exciting as possible so you keep going back 😂

No way, gold kumara all the way!! 😂😂 I did not know that about Pak n save. Cheers for the comment 👍

Ohhh those combos sound lovely! Thanks for sharing with me 😊

Yes exactly!! Thanks for the comment 😊

There is definitely a technique for shopping there! It’s easy to get over excited for sure. Next time I go I’m focusing more on what bulk meat I can buy and not be tempted by new junk food etc 😂

@@ingzing well most super markets they lure people in with abit of cheap things at the entrance then you go inside around the corner oh.. hello all the prices are up 😅 am a person when I go shopping for that exact thing to buy I end up filling up the trolley with things that are not on my list 😅

Hiya, this was at St Lukes 😊

Very good point!

7 years of Christmas? Yeah by that point that fake tree’s gonna be in…. Barely alive stage if it’s lucky it didn’t get ripped apart by kids or just the crowd you stuffed it with in the storage. 😂

Thanks Debbie! Haha I got really stuck in with the crafts this year 😄 I hope I have some energy for Xmas with a newborn 😅

It’s pretty expensive 🥴

The current exchange rate $1 us is $1.77 nz. So 56 cents us is 1$ new Zealand So for practical purposes, you can almost cut the new Zealand price almost in half to get the USA price. Lol something like that....

You’re very welcome!

It’s so cute!! I’m glad you got it and are a Halloween enthusiast too 😍😍

I agree with you, after living here 12 years this is really the first year I’ve felt moved to celebrate Halloween for those reasons. But…I think it’s a cross between having kids that are an age that gets excited for Halloween, and also the weather has been so bad lately it’s almost like being in fall 🤣 It’s gotten me more in the mood. Also the stores have put out so much more decor this year than I’ve ever seen, obviously it’s a huge consumer move but it’s working on the public I think, since a lot of the stuff is flying off the shelves. I miss the real autumn terribly though 🍂🍁

Wow really! It’s taking over! I’m looking forward to going back and seeing what’s changed ( and less crowds) in a few weeks

Thank you!! It was fun to make 😍
