Fuel prices are climbing. Groceries are getting dearer. Whānau budgets are getting tighter.

If you're feeling the squeeze, you're not alone.

91-octane is averaging $3.13 per litre right now. Economists are warning of $4 per litre scenarios. And groceries aren't getting cheaper either.

Most cost-of-living advice out there is written for individual budgets. It doesn't account for how many of us actually live: collective households, cultural obligations (koha, fa'alavelave, church tithes, remittances), and the reality that we were already stretched before prices started rising.
