Thrift Season 5 Trailer

From Thrift, 5:00 am on 22 July 2025

Thrift is back with more money saving hints and hacks!  Katy Gosset meets a savvy student who's teaching others how to eat better for less and visits an award-winning student flat garden. She gleans some thrifty wisdom from our older residents and meets the Pasifika community who are growing taro in the Mid-Canterbury winter. We head behind the scenes at a social enterprise to learn how they turn out 700 low-cost community meals each day. And Katy embarks on a thrifty road trip and meets some seasoned travellers who've gone a long way on a shoestring.
