Summer is finally here, a time for adventures, family fun, and warm, sunny days creating memories. We all enjoy that relaxed vibe (that blur of days between Christmas and New Years, right?!), but with rising living costs, this period can feel more stressful than stress free. Add on the pressure to entertain the family, plus a little NZ getaway and you’re watching your bank account melt faster than snow under the sun.
Thankfully we have found NZ’s best kept (not-so) secret to helping you get the most from your money this summer. For $8 a month, you can join up as a member of Manchester Unity where you can unlock exclusive benefits and discounts designed to make this summer your best one yet!
Take advantage of their affordable Kiwi holiday homes for as little as $37 p/night in all the top tourist spots (like 7 nights in Hanmer Springs for $380!) Pair that with exclusive travel discounts, including savings on fuel, ferries, and rental cars, and you’ve got a budget-friendly family escape that doesn’t compromise on enjoyment.
Keeping the kids entertained during the school holidays is a breeze too, with $9 movie tickets and even subsidised family events like berry picking, pool parties and more.
Planning outdoor adventures? Your membership gives you access to Torpedo7 discounts and special pricing on EV bikes, making it easier (and cheaper) to get the family out and about.
And with more free time, you might finally get to those DIY projects around the house. Your membership provides handy savings at home improvement retailers such as Bunnings, Dulux, Placemakers and more.
Arguably what costs families the most over the summer holidays is gift buying. From Christmas to birthdays and thank you gifts, your membership unlocks 3% off eGift cards and discounts at giftware retailers so you can get more for less.
This summer, make every moment count and every dollar go further. Join Manchester Unity and discover how an Affordable Summer is just the beginning.
