Save More Nelson is a clearance grocery store at 60 Achilles Avenue in Wakatu Square, Nelson, and it is open seven days a week from 9am to 6pm. Its stock is mostly food that is close to or past its best-before date, which the company says it sells at much lower prices. The range changes weekly, and sometimes daily, so what is on the shelves one week may not be there the next.
The company says all its products are safe to eat, that its staff are trained on the difference between best-before and expiry dates, and that it works to keep queues short. It also sells main pantry items at discounted prices. The business describes itself as aiming to cut waste and ease the cost of living for families. Save More has branches in Christchurch, Ashburton and Nelson, and its website lists further stores in Papanui, Linwood, Timaru and Blenheim.
