Episode Description
Do you have kids? If so, are they bugging you to get them Ooshies, those tiny, plastic figurines they’re giving away at one of the supermarkets? Or maybe you’re more in the mood for some stylish new kitchen knives, so you shop at a different supermarket? Either way, does giving stuff away for ‘free’ really drive your decision on where to buy your groceries? The answer - and the business plan behind these promos – is all in this week’s episode of No Stupid Questions with Susan Edmunds.
In this episode, Susan answers questions about:
- Could solar power buybacks ever become taxable income?
- What are the pros and cons of income protection insurance?
- I'm struggling to pay tax on my freehold investment property. What are my options?
- Can the age of eligibility for KiwiSaver be changed?
- Why do some supermarkets offer giveaways like Ooshies?
