How much do you know?

Step 1 of 9

11%

How much meat, poultry and fish does the average NZ adult man eat per week?*
- 1 Kg
- 2 Kgs
- 1.3 Kgs
- 900 grammes

1.3 kgs. Portion control is really important when monitoring your spending. We often eat more protein than we think we need. Having few meat-free meals a week, such as pizza or pasta, can be good for your budget and healthy for you too!

What would be the cost of groceries for an average NZ Family (mum, dad, 2 kids aged 5 - 10 years old)*
- $150
- $299.10
- $249.30
- $193.50

$249.30 according to Otago Food Survey (published 2015) They suggest $68 (man); $58 (woman); $51 (each per child); $21.10 for non food items (e.g. toilet paper etc.) Some might think this is too steep.

What % of your power bill goes on water heating?*
- 15%
- 30%
- 47%
- 55%

A massive 30% goes on water heating. 29% on space heating. 8% Lighting. 7% Cooking. 11% Refrigeration and 15% other appliances. (Source: www.powerswitch.org.nz) Check out www.energywise.govt.nz or www.powerswitch,org.nz,

How hot is too hot? What temperature should the hot water temperature be at the cylinder?*
- 55 degrees C
- 52 degrees C
- 57 degrees C
- 60 degrees C

The optimum temperature at the cylinder is 60 degrees C. Any hotter and you're literally pouring money down the drain. Too cold and harmful bacteria will grow. Too hot and it may scald you. Click here for Energywise water safety tips
