To save you from being basic I’ve decided to put together a little list of the best cafes for studying so you can cram 12 weeks of study into one day, as well as some cheap coffee deals, because this is a coupon page, and we’re all about the deals.

Coffee Deals

Coffix – Cheap Coffee

If you don’t get your ‘on the way to a lecture’ coffee from Coffix you’re doing life wrong. Coffix is a chain of small cafes that primarily sell coffee, alongside a few goodies at an extremely cheap price. This isn’t even technically a deal as it’s just their everyday prices.

What: Pop in any day of the week and you’ll be treated to a $3 small and $4 large coffees anytime! Not only is that already cheap coffee, but you can get an extra coffee shot, syrup shot, or swap out cows milk for soy milk at no extra cost! Plus the staff are lovely, it’s just great vibes all round.

Where: Various

Wifi: No

Koffee Bar – Cheap Coffee

Sunflower Cafe (now Koffee Bar) is my go to, it’s a cute cafe located a 10-15 minute walk from uni that has lovely staff, and great cheap coffee. Koffee Bar also makes for a great study spot, it’s not overcrowded, has free Wifi, and comfy seating. What more could you want?

What: Pop in any day of the week and you can nab a small coffee for $3, or a regular for just $4! No longer do you need to pay $6 for a coffee at Starbucks.

Where: 34 Wyndham Street

Wifi: Yes.

Coffee Club – VIP Club

I know what you’re thinking, Coffee Clubs are normally quite overpriced, and you’re right, but they also offer some comfy seating, free wifi, and their membership program means you can get some real cheap coffee.

What: For just $25 a year you can buy one hot drink and get one entirely FREE, every single day, effectively making a coffee cost as low as a couple dollars! Perfect if you’re constantly studying with a friend, or have a big study sesh ahead of you.

Where: Various

Wifi: Yes

Hollywood Bakery & Espresso – Free/$1 Muffin

Ah yes, the cafe chain of everyone’s childhood. I know they’re not the coolest cafe, but they do a great deal, and that’s what matters.

What: This deal varies Hollywood to Hollywood, but generally when you purchase any sized coffee, which is already decently priced, you’ll nab a muffin either for FREE or for just ONE DOLLAR, making the combo cost as little as $4 or $5!

Where: Various

Wifi: Yes

Le Petit Cafe – Cheap Coffee

If you don’t know what Le Petit Cafe is, you must be from the shore, because it’s the first thing you see when you get off the train at Britomart as you think to yourself, “can I order a coffee and still make the next lights.”

What: Just like Coffix, Le Petit Cafe uses their small shop size (basically a food truck) to focus on selling cheap coffee to the masses. You can get a good cheap coffee on-the-go for as low as $2.50 (espresso), with a large just costing you $4! You literally can’t beat it.

Where: 12 Queen Street

Wifi: No

McDonald’s – App Coupons

Don’t pretend like you’re not going on a cheeky Maccies run in the next month. I’m just here to prep you with the coupons to save money.

What: In case you didn’t know, McDonald’s offers coupons via their mobile app, and if that isn’t the best news you’ve ever heard I don’t know what is. The coupons change regularly, but a few staples include a Bacon & Egg McMuffin with a medium coffee for $7, a cheeseburger with a small coffee for $5, and an apple pie with a small coffee for $5, absolute steals.

Where: Various

Wifi: Yes

Mojo Coffee – App Discount

I’m adding this one for the UoA students. I know you’re going to find yourself at Mojo when you’re running late or trying to find a will to live.

What: This deal isn’t the greatest in the world, but going to Mojo at uni is inevitable. To save you a bit of money, simply download the Mojo Coffee app, signup, and present your account at the counter to nab 10% off all hot drinks. It ain’t much, but it’s honest work.

Where: Various

Wifi: No

Best Study Spots

Remedy Coffee

Remedy Coffee is potentially the coolest cafe in the CBD. Great food (their wraps really hit the spot), good coffee, a heap of board games, feel good music, and even an arcade machine, Remedy is an absolute treat! Located on the corner of Wellesley St West, literally a 2 minute walk from AUT, you wouldn’t expect such a snazzy place to exist. Grab a coffee, play a game of scrabble (study) on the couch and just unwind. The only problem, it is a small cafe, you just got to be in quick and make sure you don’t visit at peak times!

Where: 1 Wellesley Street West

Wifi: Yes

The Raw Kitchen

On face value The Raw Kitchen doesn’t look like much, but hear me out. When you first walk inside you’ll assume it’s a small vegan takeaway, but if you venture up the spiral stairs you’ll find a big, open, super minimal room, perfect for studying. There’s a couple great big couches with wall outlets nearby, and a great big table for all your supplies. This cafe is genuinely a great escape from the city while still being nestled nearby university. On top of this they offer delicious and nutritious food, as well as the sweet nectar that is coffee. If you’re wanting peace and quiet, with a gram worthy atmosphere, The Raw Kitchen is it chief.

Where: 90 Wellesley Street West

Wifi: Yes

PW Cafe

PW Cafe (formally Gloria Jeans and Alberobello) was my absolute go to while at university. Located on High St, it’s a small walk from uni, making it perfect for a quick hour in-between lectures. The homely upstairs atmosphere of PW Cafe makes you feel like you’ve been transported to a cosy suburb. When you first walk in, you’ll find a super unassuming small cafe, but once you’ve placed your order, pop upstairs and you’ll find a big room filled with different types of seating dependent on your vibe. If you’ve got a spare hour and you want a good coffee with some hard study, look no further than PW Cafe.

Where: 1b/47 High Street

Wifi: Yes

Gloria Jeans, Lorne St

Gloria Jeans on Lorne St is genuinely one of the nicest and biggest cafes I’ve seen in New Zealand. I know it’s a chain and a little overpriced, but that doesn’t takeaway from the fact that it is the ultimate study spot. If you venture to the back of the cafe you’ll find a large area with plenty of different seating, perfect for any situation, whether you’re grabbing a coffee, or setting up shop to study for a few hours. To help sweeten the coffee deals, students can nab 10% off, so make sure you have your student ID at the ready!

Where: Shope 9-10 Khartoum Place, Lorne Street

Wifi: Yes

The Kimchi Project

The Kimchi Project from face value looks like your run of the mill modern cafe, but it has an unassuming poor kept secret out back. Located on Lorne Street not far from uni, you wouldn’t expect much from a cafe on a skinny street, but if you venture past the counter and through the cafe into the restaurant you’ll find one of the best courtyards in town! This courtyard is filled with light from the clear ceiling and surrounded by nature, absolutely perfect for studying! On top of this, their food is absolutely delicious, shout out to the pasta.

Where: 20 Lorne Street

Wifi: Yes

Auckland Coupon Guru’s Favourite Eateries

1. Raw Power Cafe

Raw Power has to be the most wholesome cafe in Auckland. Situated up a flight of easy to miss stairs on Vulcan Lane, in the midst of the madness that is the city. Raw Power specialises in vegetarian and vegan brunch and lunches, with your choice between a self-service salad bar or a full fledged cafe menu. The owner is absolutely lovely and you feel welcomed the moment you step inside. Alongside the free WiFi, Raw Power is the perfect study spot, just perch up next to a window on the second floor and enjoy the views, food, and coffee. Now, for those that are skeptical, I didn’t just choose this place because it’s cute, the food is some of the best vegetarian food I have ever had, the coffee is good, and the prices are just as tasty with nothing costing over $18! A well deserved spot as the first restaurant on my list of favourite eateries In Auckland.

Favourite Dishes

• Tofu Burger, pictured on the image above at the bottom, she’s hefty and full of flavour.
• Tofu Hash Mushroom, one of my favourite dishes ever, creamy mushrooms and a homemade hash brown? What more could you want.
• Lemon Pancake, delicious fluffy pancakes topped with grilled banana, berry compote, maple syrup, and crème fraîche, just writing this made me hungry.

Address: 10 Vulcan Lane, Auckland CBD (09 303 3624)

2. Cassia

I never knew such happiness until I discovered gourmet Indian food. Don’t get me wrong, I love takeout but the service, presentation, and flavours you get at Cassia is unrivalled. Cassia holds awards for Outstanding Restaurateur and Outstanding Bartender. Open occasionally for a set lunch menu from Wed – Fri, the real treat is booking a table and going for dinner. From the moment you step inside you receive VIP service, but in a relaxing friendly manner complimented by their dishes and interior. Sharing plates and cocktails are encouraged, adding to that fun relaxing vibe. To top it off dishes are really well priced for the love and flavour that’s put in, ranging from just $14 to $39.

Favourite Dishes

• Eggplant, Kasundi, Chickpea, Curry leaf, anything eggplant gets a massive tick from me, but the flavour in this is wild.
• Potato, Cauliflower, Kadhai Spice, Ginger, this dish right here blew my mind, the spices worked perfectly together, I still dream about it.
• Garlic Naan, I know you can get naan almost anywhere, but this remains the best naan I’ve ever had. Every single part is cooked to perfection.

Address: 5 Fort Lane, Auckland CBD (09 379 9702)

3. Big J’s Takeaways

This right here is my favourite Kiwi takeaway and burger spot in all of New Zealand. Big J’s has it all, the best burgers, the best fries with FOUR different choices of seasoning (amazing right?). With the massive range of fried goods, you can taste the love and care put into their food. Situated in the ‘burbs of Mt Wellington down a few random side streets, you already know you’ll get that classic wholesome Kiwi takeout service. Once again their food is also extremely well priced, with gourmet burgers at regular takeaway prices.

Favourite Dishes

• Cajun Queen, an amazing cajun spiced grilled chicken burger with bacon, sautéed onions, and banana. I know that sounds weird, but trust me, it’s delicious.
• Mushroom Magic, maybe I’m just a fool for creamy mushrooms, but slap those on top of a prime beef patty, sautéed onion, tomato, lettuce, and aioli, and you’ve got a delicious burger.
• Chips, You have to try their fries, they are cooked to absolute perfection, light, fluffy, and crispy. Ask for chicken salt and you’re in for a treat.

Address: 4/1 Melton Road, Mt Wellington (09 579 0340)

4. Friend of a Farmer

I’ve got to show some love to the south, and honestly, who would’ve guessed one of the best cafes in Auckland is located on a back road inside of a Plant Barn? The location is beautiful, setup mostly outside, filled with plants and flowers with a great big family deck like layout. The staff are lovely, which goes a long way, but most importantly the food is brunch at it’s best. Yes, it is as simple as it gets, a classic kiwi brunch spot, but it is done so so right. Tie all that in with great coffee and you’ve got a perfect Sunday spot to escape to.

Favourite Dishes

• Corn Fritter Stack, this is it guys, my favourite brunch meal of all time. I’ve been here three or four times, but I’ve only ever ordered the stack, because it is that good. Amazing corn fritters, with bacon, greens, sour cream, and sweet chilli, absolute heaven.
• Coffee, make sure you also order a coffee while you’re here, some of the best I’ve ever had.

Address: 163 Airfield Road, Takanini (09 298 0017)

5. Cafe Midnight Express

Cafe Midnight Express is located in the heart of the city on Victoria St. Mediterranean food at its best with such great prices, you can truly justify their three course meals. Your options for food are mouth watering, and you have the choice of either opting for their regular menu or a special lunch/dinner menu with amazing deals. We’re talking $12 lunches, two course dinners for $25, three course dinners for $35, among others. No matter what you choose you’re in for a hearty, wholesome meal full of flavour, and I guarantee you’ll be back. Making it number 5 on my list of favourite eateries in Auckland.

Favourite Dishes

• Mezze Platter, this dish is just one of the best entrees period, but the sigara borek (essentially cheese in deep fried pastry) is melt in your mouth good.
• Vegetarian Moussaka, imagine a Mediterranean lasagna. Potato, topped with veggies, eggplant, the most delicious sauce, cheese, and yogurt. Amazing.
• Midnight Mix, make sure you don’t eat all day before this. We’re talking roasted lamb, grilled chicken, and kofte, topped with tomato and yogurt sauce, on top of rice and herb mashed potato. Basically a heap of delicious carbs and delicious meat.

Address: 59 Victoria Street West, Auckland CBD (09 303 0312)

6. Burger Geek

I know I said Big J’s is my favourite burger spot, but this is a very close second. I find that burger places in the city lose their touch once they become popular, but this can not be said for Burger Geek. Burger Geek is a homely, family owned gourmet burger bar that is a short walk from uni. You can choose from juicy buttermilk fried chicken burgers, Angus and Wagyu double smash beef burgers, or innovative veggie/vegan burgers. The best part is their sides are just as good, I mean who doesn’t love American style chicken wings with four sauces to choose from, crumbed jalapeños stuffed with cream cheese, or triple cheese deep fried mac n cheese balls?

Favourite Dishes

• Swanson, I’m a simple man, I see a barbecue bacon burger, I order it. Chuck in cheese, onion strings, and aioli, and you’re in for an absolute treat.
• Hot Wings, free range, crispy American style wings coated in honey sriracha, Dr Pepper & bourbon BBQ, mango habanero, or Franks buffalo sauce. What more could you want?
• Jalapeno Poppers, this might be a little bias, but I just love cream cheese. Add in some heat, coat it, and deep fry it. Perfection.

Address: 175 Symonds Street, Eden Terrace (09 869 3467)

7. Glass Goose

I contemplated not putting any fancy restaurants on my list of favourite eateries in Auckland, but Glass Goose is too good not to show some love. Plus for the experience and amazing food, it is well worth. Located on Federal St, venture up a flight of stairs you’ll find yourself in an open plan rooftop bar/restaurant which doubles as a top location for fun after work drinks and a cute date night spot. Glass Goose specialises in a wide range of European style sharing plates, both meaty and vegetarian, that are so good you honestly don’t want to share. Tie the delicious food with the lovely ambiance and tasty cocktails, and you’re in for a top notch dining experience.

Favourite Dishes

• Wagyu Short Rib, I have honestly never had a dish so tender before, and the parsnip puree that comes with it makes for a flavour explosion.
• Duck Fat Potato Skins, even at an upper scale eatery you’ve got to enjoy the simple things in life. Imagine fancy fries that are the size of your palm, why would you not order them?
• Chocolate Marquise, okay so this is my all time favourite dessert, yet I’m still not entirely sure what it is. It’s like a decedent chocolate frozen slice covered in crumbed cookie, dried raspberries, more chocolate, and vanilla ice cream. Unbelievably good.

Address: 78 Federal Street, Auckland CBD (09 379 9404)

8. Barilla Dumpling

Asian cuisine based restaurants score high on my favourite eateries in Auckland and are unfortunately taking the biggest hit during this pandemic, and they need our support more than ever. There are two Barilla Dumplings located down on Dominion Road in Balmoral, but it doesn’t matter which one you go to, because they’re both amazing. They specialise in, well, dumplings, but have a wide range of delicious Chinese food from sweet and sour pork to spicy eggplant. They also offer BYO so it’s the perfect eatery for a get together with friends, where you can share food and laughs.

Favourite Dishes

• Chicken Curry Dumplings, I am yet to find another restaurant that makes these and they’re my absolute favourite. A real subtle curry taste infused in juicy chicken is a vibe.
• Eggplant in Spicy Garlic Sauce, the fried eggplant absorbs all the flavour from the spicy garlic sauce which makes for an absolute treat, definitely a portion size for two people.
• Brown Sugar Pancake, a delicious Chinese style pancake covered in brown sugar which melts and gives a great caramel taste, so simple, yet so good.

Address: 571 Dominion Road, Balmoral (09 638 8032)

Ways to Order for Pickup or Delivery

We’ve gone through my favourite eateries In Auckland and now it’s time to move onto the delivery guide. Now, waiting in line or going to sit down at a restaurant might not be your thing, especially in present times, but you obviously want that delicious food. So I’ve decided to share a few of the best apps and websites you can use to easily find a restaurant, their contact information, menu(s), and to place an order for delivery or pickup, all while supporting the best eateries in Auckland!

Order Directly Through the Eatery

This should go without saying, but with Uber Eats and other high fee takeaway ordering apps making a killing, obviously not. Before placing an order for your favourite takeout, check their website or social media to ensure that they don’t offer this ordering service themselves. Especially since we entered Level 3, the number of eateries offering online or phone ordering, including a delivery service is amazing! But the best part, by ordering through eateries directly, they keep all the profits.

Luk App

Luk App is a new application taking the Auckland food scene by storm. This single application allows consumers to view nearby eateries in a directory like feed, take advantage of deals and loyalty cards offered by the restaurants, order directly from the restaurant in the app for both pick up and delivery (it even has a pay later feature), and so much more. Think of Luk App as a combination between Zomato, Uber Eats, and GrabOne, it has everything and helps to support local!

Kiwi Takeout

Kiwi Takeout is a New Zealand wide website that works as a gigantic eatery directory, so you can easily order your favourite food whether it be by phone call or a delivery app. You simply visit the website, choose your location, and browse the ever growing list of eateries (which you can refine by cuisine and location). When you click on an eatery you can see all of their contact information, a sample menu, social media, link to their website, and apps that offer delivery. The Kiwi Takeout website had one goal in mind, to help small businesses survive and thrive during these unprecedented times.

Eat Local

Eat Local is another amazing website trying to do its part to support local eateries in New Zealand! All you’ve got to do is visit the website, enter your address, click ‘Find Food’, and you’re presented with your nearby delicious takeout options. From here you can order directly through the website for pickup (soon to be delivery as well), and you’ll then be notified via your choice of email or text when your order is ready! The beauty is that this amazing service only costs the restaurant a 5% fee, instead of the typical 30%, so you can feel good about supporting local!

Regulr App

The Regulr App is an amazing app that allows consumers to uniquely place orders directly to an eatery for both takeout and dine-in, all while building a closer relationship to the business. Just by opening the app you can see a list of eateries nearby to you, where you can then order your meal, skip the line, and choose to pay either online, in-store (helping the restaurant save money on fees), or you can chuck it on the tab and pay later! This service also costs restaurant owners much less, starting at just $29 + gst a month.

Honorary Mentions

• Easi App: One of the largest asian food delivery apps.
• Order Meal Online: Massive range of Indian takeouts can be ordered from this site.

Thank you for taking a look at my favourite eateries in Auckland. Let me know some of your favourite eateries in the comments so I can give them a try! Follow me @aucklandcouponguru on Instagram for more #foodie related content, and most importantly, deals! Take a look at my last tips and tricks blog on how to score dirt cheap petrol.

2020 is off to a rough start guys, the past couple months have been absolutely wild to say the least. 

However, it’s always best to look on the bright side of life, and there is one good thing to come from all of this, petrol is now somewhat affordable again! Travel restrictions and shutdowns due to the virus have caused petrol prices to absolutely plummet, being about 33 cents cheaper than it was a couple weeks ago (I’m writing this on the 19th of March) and the cheapest it’s been in years! So I’ve decided to celebrate with a list of tips and tricks to help you get fuel at its absolute cheapest, as this will probably be the last time you’ll see it below $2 a litre.

Use Z App’s Sharetank Feature And Stock Up On Fuel NOW

Petrol has never been so cheap, if only there was a way to buy a huge amount of fuel at these cheap prices and use it over time? Spoiler, there is.

What: New to the Z App is the life changing feature Sharetank, which allows you to buy up to 1000 litres of each type of fuel (91, diesel, and premium) at the best current price within a 30km radius! This is perfect for those who live in the city, but don’t want to pay city fuel prices, knocking an extra 10 cents off per litre. To redeem the fuel you simply scan the QR code in the app instead of using traditional payments. You can even share the Sharetank (hence the name) with friends and family so everyone can chip in! Making this the ultimate feature for road trips or carpools.

Use Petrol Company Apps To Get Free Stuff And Save Money On Fuel

Apps are amazing guys, they help you manage your entire life in one place. Companies want you to use their apps so they lure you by offering freebies, and I’m okay with that.

What: Firstly, by downloading petrol apps you can store all your discount cards on the app, so you can easily scan it at the counter, keep track of your stored discount amount and when it expires.

Here’s a couple apps that offer a little extra

1. Z App – If you simply download the Z App, you get a free barista made hot beverage, nab an instant 10 cents off per litre, and you gain $5 off a car wash! On top of the amazing Sharetank, of course. 
2. Caltex App – Download the Caltex app to receive an instant 6 cents off per litre!

Use Fuel Apps That Locate The Cheapest Petrol Stations

So many times I’ll go to a petrol station, just to find out 5 minutes later that I could’ve saved an extra 10 cents per litre if I just went to a different station. Luckily there are now apps to help you save!

What: There are now free apps in the marketplace (I use Gaspy) that after entering your location, fuel type and specifying the distance you’re wanting to search, you can now find the absolute cheapest petrol stations around! It works by members sharing the updated price of a petrol location to help you save money.

Stack Your Petrol Savings

Whenever you visit a petrol station, you most likely full up, swipe, get your 6 cent discount and call it a day. What if I told you, that you no longer have to settle for a simple $1 savings, because you can stack up your 6 or 10 cent discount and save a ridiculous amount.

What: As mentioned, fuel apps now offer the amazing option of stacking your discounts, meaning you no longer have to redeem just 6 cents off per litre. Instead you can save it for next time and build up your total discount until you’re ready to redeem.

The best way to do this

1. Top up the minimum amount you need to stack ($40)
2. Stack that amount, and continue to do so till you’re near the expiry date of your points
3. Fill it up, and watch that $100 bill go down to $80 like nothing. This is actually the most satisfying thing in the world, I swear. 

Wait For Higher Discount Days

This one is quite simple, if you read the last tip in this blog you’ll know that there can be a massive difference between saving 6 cents per litre, and saving that beautiful tenner. 

What: Every few days, or at least once a week the petrol stations will be running ‘Discount Day’ where you can save 10 cents off per litre! Waiting for these days to fuel up, especially when you’re stacking the discounts can help you save serious money. I highly recommend keeping enough petrol so you can make it to discount day! Simply subscribe to their mailers to get 1-2 days notice of when they’re doing discounts.

Don’t Fuel Up In Auckland Or Rural Towns

If there’s anything to take from this blog, it’s that petrol companies are extremely crafty and have a monopoly on all of us. The least we can do is avoid giving them as much money as possible, and that’s where this next tip comes in.

What: Ah, the almighty Auckland fuel tax a hefty 11.5 cents added onto our already expensive prices, you’d think we have it the worst, but we don’t. Rural towns have it worse a lot of the time, which can really screw you over when you’re on a road trip. By simply ensuring you fuel up in a semi-major town or making it out of the Auckland region first you can save 10 or 20 cents off per litre just like that. Just make sure you use apps like Gaspy to see the nearest prices to make your journey smarter!

Happy New Year beautiful people! Hope you’ve had an amazing break and you’re ready to focus on what 2020 has in store. With the new year brings new goals and aspirations for a lot of us, but unfortunately they don’t always go to plan (rip beach body). Because of this I’ve decided to look into cheap deals that’ll help you stick to your resolutions, whether it be healthy eating, exercise, or meat-free diets. Even if you don’t stick to these goals, at least you spent as little money as possible!

Vegetarian/Vegan Diets

Here’s a small list of my go-to vegetarian/vegan eateries to get you started on this wholesome diet. This list of course is both delicious and cheap.

1. Sunflower Thai

Boy, oh boy, Sunflower Thai holds a special place in my heart. This Thai restaurant has to be one of the most wholesome places on earth. Situated on High St in the CBD, they serve some of the best Thai food I’ve had, period. Not only this, but your standard mains, are only about $14-16, and you don’t have to worry about being served a hunk of tofu, they make unbelievably tasty fake meat for their dishes! 

DEAL: To make this place unbelievably cheap, you can nab a Buy ONE get ONE FREE on food with Zomato Gold!

Where: 6/50 High Street, Auckland CBD

2. Raw Power

Raw Power is the ultimate brekkie spot for vegetarians/vegans, I’m telling ya. Located up some stairs in Vulcan Lane, you will be treated to very well priced brunch type dishes that are oh-so delicious. Now, you have two options for an amazing meal, you can either load yourself up a plate from the salad bar, or order from the menu. Regardless of what you order, you’ll only be paying between $8.90-17.90 a dish! I cannot recommend this place enough, especially their ‘Tofu Hash Mushroom’, they genuinely make one of the best hash browns in the world.

Where: 10 Vulcan Lane, Auckland CBD

3. The Burgerie

Burgers and fries, what more could you want from life? The Burgerie is a classic takeaway burger bar located on K Road, that I’d recommend for those that are struggling to make the transition. They serve up a wide range of delicious fried goods, that even the biggest carnivores will love, and best part, it’s so cheap! With delicious burgers for as little as $6 alongside things like fries and onion rings, this is definitely a spot that’ll put you in a food coma. 

Where: 95 Karangahape Road, Auckland CBD

4. Indian Restaurants 

This next one has no specific location, I just thought we should all spend a moment appreciating the entire mainstream Indian cuisine. The fact you can get curries with rice for less than $10, or a curry with rice, naan, and a drink for a single Kate Shepard ($10) is absolutely absurd. Better yet, usually vegetarian/vegan curries are cheaper than those with meat, and in a lot of cases the meat is the only thing stopping a tasty dish from being vegetarian! So if your wallet is feeling the pinch, or you want to eat something with familiarity, stop by your local Indian takeaway for a treat.

5. Bowl and Arrow

Okay, smoothie bowls get a lot of bad publicity, but don’t listen to the haters. They are absolutely delicious, good for you, look amazing, and yeah of course they have sugar, it’s fruit. Out of all the smoothie bowl eateries, Bowl and Arrow has to be my favourite. They use the absolute best ingredients, put a heap of love into it, and most importantly, they have a coupon.

DEAL: Nab a hot coffee of any size for just $3 on Wednesdays!

Where: 228 Orakei Road, Remuera and 277/309 Broadway, Newmarket.

Gym Memberships

Gym memberships can sometimes cost a fortune, luckily there’s a few out there that won’t get in between your goals and wallet. 

1. Uni Gyms

These gyms only apply to university students so if you’re not one, keep on scrolling. Signing up to a uni gym is a smart choice, it’s ridiculously cheap, and I mean it’s in the same location as where you’re attending classes (if you attend). Most uni gyms also offer group fitness classes, the only downside is they’re not open 24/7, but I doubt you’ll be craving a gym session at 2am so they’re still a quality option.

• AUT
• University of Auckland (For 2020 the gym has moved to 70 Stanely Street)
• Massey Auckland

If you’re not based in Auckland, don’t worry, your uni almost definitely has a gym you can sign up to, I just didn’t want to spam 10 links.

2. City Fitness

City Fitness is both the fastest growing and absolute cheapest weekly payment gym around! With over 30 gyms around New Zealand that are open 24/7 and have the newest gym equipment around, you can’t go wrong.

Now there’s a few options in terms of memberships depending on what your goals are.

1. Nab a membership for just $7 a week on a 12 month plan
2. Jump on an open term plan for $12 a week
3. Open term plan, attend group fitness classes, bring a friend during business hours, use unlimited WiFi, use the massage chairs, and even get a free gym bag for just $14 a week!

3. Jetts Fitness

Jetts is another cheapie 24/7 gym that won’t break the bank and is located throughout New Zealand with over 50 clubs, so wherever you are you can get a good workout. Not only does your membership give you access to the gyms in New Zealand, but you can also visit any of the Jetts in Australia and Thailand (you know, because reasons).

Jetts has your typical gym equipment, weight machines, free weights, a heap of cardio equipment, boxing bags, and depending on the location, fitness classes. Now, there’s a couple weekly payment options to choose from, you can either be on an 

1. Open-term, cancel anytime plan for just $12.95 a week
2. Minimum 12 month term plan for just 9.95 a week!
3. Pay up front and nab 12 months for just $470, which is a low $9 a week! 

DEAL: If you join Jetts at the moment there’s no joining fee (saving $49), and you get your first two weeks free!

4. Social Sport Teams

If going to the gym isn’t really your thing, but you still want to work on your fitness, perhaps a more enjoyable form is a social sporting team! A social team is a sports team that still competes against other teams, but in a more friendly, less serious manner. There’s social teams across almost every sport and town and they’re usually pretty cheap!

You’ll be looking at around $10 a game, and you’ll have a lot of fun while still getting a great workout. Just search for the sport you’re after with your location in Google and heaps of results will appear!

5. Gym Trials

If you’re really on struggle street but still want to get those gains, I have the trick for you. Luckily there’s countless gyms that offer free trials, but who said anything about actually joining?

You can practically visit every gym in New Zealand, sign up to a trial (maybe use a fake email address/phone number), get those gains, and then move onto the next one. Here is a link to the best free gym trials in Auckland!

Healthy Eating

Eating healthy can be an absolute struggle. Here’s a few options that are healthy, tasty, and well priced to help you on your journey!

1. Foodprint

Foodprint is my absolute favourite app on the marketplace, combining my three passions, saving money, eating delicious food, and helping the environment. The way it works is that local cafes and eateries around Auckland (so far) can post leftover food or beverages on the app that will go to waste at 50-90% off!

I’ve been to so many eateries that are usually too expensive and had some amazing meals at a fraction of the price through Foodprint, reducing waste and methane emissions in the process!

2. Habitual Fix

Habitual Fix is the alternative cousin of Subway and Pita Pit, offering sandwiches, wraps, salads, pitas, noodles, smoothies, juices, and even bagels!Basically anything you could ever want. They use fresh, healthy, and delicious ingredients, and are absolutely perfect for an on-the-go lunch. Fortunately they also are offering a limited time deal through Groupon!

DEAL: Until the 29th of February you can nab any wrap, sandwich, or salad for just $7.99. This can save you up to $4.51 or 36% off! Simply click here to nab this deal.

3. Poke Bowls

Poke bowls are perhaps the biggest craze since bubble tea to hit the foodie scene, and for good reason. They’re one of the healthiest ‘fast foods’ out, offering fresh and tasty ingredients not lathered in fat, and better yet, they’re well priced.

Ha! Poke located at UoA is priced at just $8.50! It is then up to you to add any extras like meat, avocado, etc (which are decently priced themselves.) Each bowl you can either have salad or rice, which are then stacked with ingredients like edamame, pickled ginger, cucumber, kimchi, radish, and finished with delicious authentic sauces. I got hungry just writing this.

4. Tank

Tank is a staple and now offers a couple smoothie specials every week!

DEAL: For just $5.90 you can nab the Tank classic smoothie of the week, or if you’re feeling fancy you can get the fancy premium tank of the week for just $6.90! The flavours change each week via Instagram. so be sure to stay tuned. UoA students can also nab a Half Tank Nutra Blast for $6.50 via the Niesh App.

5. Revive Cafe

Revive is the classic healthy lunch spot in the CBD. Although it’s vegetarian/vegan you definitely won’t miss the meat or dairy with their ever changing delicious menu. 

Each week you can choose from about 7 different salads, 2 different smoothies, 2 different hot pots ranging from curries to casseroles, and a special of the day such as a chicken burrito or cannelloni. As delicious as this all sounds it is also well priced at $9 to $15.

DEAL: If you’re a student you’re in luck. Simply sign up to their mailer, include your valid student ID, and you’ll be sent your virtual Revive Student Card!With this you can nab $11 large, $9 regular, or $7 small boxes, making lunch extremely affordable.

1. Coca-Cola Christmas in the Park

On the 14th of December, the Auckland Domain is turned into the most festive place in New Zealand.

5. Franklin Road, MOTAT, Karaka Lake Christmas Lights

Who doesn’t love a giant snowman on someone’s lawn? I’m gonna run through three of the absolute best Christmas light displays in Auckland.

• Franklin Road: Starting at 7.30pm every night from NOW till Christmas day, you can take a stroll and catch the amazing Franklin Road lights till 11pm! This is definitely the most popular of all the light shows so expect a massive crowd, but for good reason. Almost every single house on both sides of the road partake in this event and absolutely dress their house in some of the prettiest and wackiest lights around.
• MOTAT: To break away from the traditional Christmas light viewings look no further than MOTAT’s Christmas Lights Nights. Beginning on the 13th of December till the 24th, the museum will be transformed into a Christmas wonderland with live music, movies, food, a light tunnel (whatever that is, it sounds cool), along with much more! There is a $2 entry fee for adults with this one, but it is well worth it!
• Karaka Lakes: This one is extremely similar to Franklin Road, with houses being absolutely dressed to impress, but instead of being limited to the one street, these lights are all around the Karaka Lakes area. Because of this, it’s probably best if you view these lights via the pleasure of your own car while driving through the area. You can catch these lights sporadically throughout December, and they’ve already started!

Where: Franklin Road, Ponsonby; MOTAT: 805 Great North Road, Western Springs; Karaka Lakes, Karaka.
When: Franklin Road (1st – 25th of December, 7.30pm-11pm); MOTAT (13th – 24th of December, 8pm-11pm); Karaka Lakes (5th – 8th, 12th – 15th, and 18th – 24th of December, 9pm-10pm).
Cost: $2 for MOTAT, the rest are free!

6. Vector Lights – Christmas Edition

I don’t know whose idea it was to chuck 90,000 lights on the Harbour Bridge, but I am definitely not complaining. Watching one of the Vector Light shows is perfect for a cute evening out with friends, or a more friendlier friend (wink emoji).

The theme for this show is the ’12 Days of a Kiwi Christmas’, which is a typical countdown story of Christmas with a Kiwi twist. The show repeats every 15 minutes, so pop down to a good viewing spot anytime within that 3 hour time.

Where: Harbour Bridge, but you should definitely park somewhere with a good view, don’t drive over the bridge please.
When: 13th – 24th of December, 9pm-12am.
Cost: Free.
More Info: https://www.vector.co.nz/about-us/sponsorship/lights

7. Takapuna Summer Days Festival

With summer in full swing come January, why not start your Saturday off right with a daytime festival in Takapuna? With music, beach, food, and sun in the mix, what more could you want?

Takapuna is hosting a festival full of music, circus performances, and magic shows, while being posted next to the beautiful Takapuna beach. It’ll be an absolute scorcher of a day (I hope at least), so the food trucks at the festival will be an absolute treat, with ice cream at the ready.

Where: Takapuna Beach, The Strand, Takapuna, Auckland.
When: 19th of January, 11am-7pm.
Cost: Free.
More Info: https://www.eventfinda.co.nz/2019/takapuna-beach-summer-days-festival/auckland/takapuna

8. Christmas Markets

Chicken wings are a food lover’s dream. Not only are they absolutely delicious, come in many different flavours, and practically go with everything, but they are more or less the cheapest thing on the menu at a restaurant (big yes).

I wanted to take this a step further and hunt down the absolute cheapest wings in Auckland, Christchurch, and Wellington (sorry rest of NZ, I’m only one person).

Auckland

Where: The Strand, Takapuna, Auckland 0622

4. Flying Burrito Brothers – 2-4-1 Wing Wednesdays

13. Tequila Joe’s – All You Can Eat Wednesdays

I am genuinely thinking of traveling to Wellington just to hit this restaurant. It is the only Mexican restaurant in Wellington with an open kitchen, and features one of my all time favourite deals, all you can eat!

What: On Wednesday from 5pm, and for just $25 with a drink or $29 without (honestly just order a coke, it’d be the same price) you can eat all the buffalo wings you want! These bad boys also come with baja fries as if it couldn’t get any better.

Where: 18 Garrett St, Te Aro, Wellington, 6011

Ah, the ‘Happy Hour’ a staple marketing ploy. Discount on drinks or food for a couple hours in the afternoon to lure those retiring for the day. Sounds like a solid idea right? The only problem is a lot of these promotions genuinely suck, often taking off $1 from their already expensive drinks.

So, I’ve decided to track down the select handful of ‘Happy Hour’ deals around Auckland that actually save you a decent amount of dosh and will leave you, well, happy.

1. Everybody’s – $5 Beer and Wine

If you’re unsure where to suggest for end of day drinks, look no further than Everybody’s, it’s perfect for everybody (see what I did there.) Right next door to Roxy, it’s an easy walking distance for everyone, offering a chill vibe, and of course very cheap ‘Happy Hour’ drinks!

What:

If you pop down on Tuesday-Saturday between the hours of 5pm to 7pmyou’ll be treated to their amazingly priced ‘Happy Hour’. Featuring $5 house wine and beer you definitely cannot go wrong (or get much cheaper.)

Where:

Imperial House Level 1/7 Fort Ln, Auckland CBD, Auckland 1010.

2. Sweat Shop Brew Kitchen – $1 Hot Dogs

Okay, I never said ‘Happy Hour’ was limited to drinks, it’s 2019 we’re all about diversity and Sweat Shop is personally one of my favourite places to go for a bite.

What:

Simply hit up Sweat Shop on a Wednesday after 5pm and you’ll be treated to $1 hot dogs! The only catch is you must purchase a beverage to wash down the deliciousness, but by buying just one drink you can have up to five hot dogs. I think this deal is what it means to be an entrepreneur.

Where:

7 Sale St, Freemans Bay, Auckland 1010.

3. Mexican Cafe – $5 Beer, Wine, and Tequila

This may just be call of the year, but Mexican Cafe’s ‘Happy Hour’ is the best in the Auckland CBD, there I said it. Situated in the heart of the city on Vic St West, flexing some of the cheapest drinks money can buy with a quality outdoor seating area, Mexican Cafe is a top city destination to unwind.

What:

Literally any day of the week between 5-7pm you can venture into Mexican Cafe and buy some extremely cheap drinks. For just one Sir Edmund ($5 for the uncultured swines) you can purchase a glass of chardonnay, sav, riesling, shiraz, tui, export gold, or a shot of good ol’ tequila. Alongside this there’s also $9 margaritas if you’re feeling fancy.

Where:

67 Victoria St W, Auckland CBD, Auckland 1010.

4. Holey Moley – Pint, Pizza, and 9 Holes of Mini-Golf for $25

Holey Moley, an indoor bar centered around themed mini-golf courses, is the biggest craze in Auckland.  I mean who doesn’t love the idea of drunken mini-golf on a Simpsons themed hole while eating a delicious pizza? This is it, chief.

What:

Your Mondays and Tuesdays are actually about to become 100x better with this Holey Moley deal. Pop in between 5-7pm on the aforementioned days and your entire night is sorted, with a pint of cider or beer, a hefty pizza, and 9 holes of their oh-so-popular mini-golf costing you just $25!

5. Al’s Deli – $5 Tap Beer and $6 Wine

Al’s Deli is the beautiful Canadian restaurant located midway up Queen St that brought us both the legendary poutine burger, and donuts with syringes. So you know damn well they’re going to have a quality ‘Happy Hour’ to match.

What:

Stop on by any weekday that suits between 3-6pm and you can nab both $5 glasses of tap beer and $6 house wines. Better yet, between Monday-Thursday Al’s Deli also has amazing daily specials on their delicious food you can pair this ‘Happy Hour’ with, including burgers, ribs, and wings! Gotta love Canada.

Where:

1/492 Queen St, Auckland CBD, Auckland 1010.

6. Rydges – Rooftop Friday Specials

I know what you’re thinking, Rydges is spendy, and it can be. But you can’t just rate a ‘Happy Hour’ based on how cheap it is, sometimes it’s the experience that makes it so worth it. Don’t worry, the drinks are still well priced, and this is probably the coolest ‘Happy Hour’ in the Auckland CBD so bare with me.

What:

Every Friday from 4pm, basically when everyone is ready to quit adulting for the week, Rydges has us absolutely covered. It is at this time where they open up their beautiful rooftop terrace to their patrons to kick the weekend off right with live music to match. While soaking up the views and enjoying the music you can nab $8 spirits, wines, and beers, alongside tasty $10 cocktails, a really good price to pay for a quality start to your evening.

Where:

59 Federal St, Auckland CBD, Auckland 1010.

7. Headquarters – All Day ‘Happy Hour’ Till Sunset

Headquarters automatically makes it on this list because who doesn’t want to unwind on a lounger while looking over the Viaduct in the hot Summer sun? On top of this they’ve got some banging deals on drinks to go alongside this quality setup.

What:

I don’t know how I feel about calling this one a ‘Happy Hour’ when it literally runs for 7 or 8 hours everyday, but I make the rules so here we are. Simply pop on by between the hours of 11am and whenever the sunsets, which is typically between 6pm and 8pm (depending on the time of year), and you’re in for a treat. With $5 wines, $25 bottles, $10 margaritas, and $20 jugs of Monteith’s Golden Lager you’re absolutely sorted for after uni/work drinks, or a full day of drinking, your choice.

Where:

115 Customs St W, Auckland CBD, Auckland 1010.

8. Freeman & Grey – $7 Wine and Beer

I don’t think Freemans needs any introduction, this is definitely one of the most well known bars in Auckland because of their near mythological daily $5 pizza special. Although, it’s this pizza special that overshadows their quality drink deals that runs alongside it. I mean, a $5 pizza with a $7 beer, what a match made in heaven.

What:

For this one you do have to sign up to Freeman & Grey’s ‘Best Friends’ loyalty club, which is completely free, and I mean you do get a free pizza and a $10 voucher to help sweeten the deal. So, once you’re a member you then have access to their $7 house beer and wine drink special! The good news is this runs everyday of the week, for as long as their open, making this the quality spot for when you want a cheap drink at any point in the day.

American Express ‘Restaurant Month’ is possibly the greatest annual event held in Auckland.

How It Works

Restaurant Month runs through the entire month of August (as in it’s on now!) where participating restaurants create special $25, $40, and $55+ set menus. 

There are a lot of these menus from a whole heap of different restaurants, so I thought I’d rate them all and give you my top 10 to make the task of deciding where to go a bit easier! Oh, and of course we’re only looking at the $25 menus because we’re all about getting the best quantity and quality at the lowest price!

Note: It is recommended that you book a table when visiting any of these restaurants to ensure you can take advantage of their delicious and cheap menus!

My Top 10 $25 Deals

Green Time is an amazing vegan eatery found on Fort Street, with the most homely vibe you’ll ever find. Everything there is made from scratch, nothing is fried, and the food is refined sugar free! But don’t be fooled as that doesn’t take away from the flavour at all.

What: Pop into Green Time for either lunch or dinner and you can nab their special $25 main and dessert with a hot beverage deal. They have a few classic options to choose from for the main dish, with ‘chicken’ pasta, Thai green curry, or nachos. And for dessert you’re absolutely treated to either lemon meringue, a banoffee tart, or a chocolate brownie made from (wait for it) Whittaker’s chocolate. To top it off you also get a coffee or tea of your choice to compliment the meal!
