Government shutting borders...

Fiona from Henderson

... to all but citizens and permanent residents
New Zealand is closing its borders to everyone but citizens and permanent residents in an attempt to stop the growth of coronavirus.
The ban is in place for planes boarding after 11.59pm on Thursday.

Partners and children of citizens or permanent residents are exempt from the ban, as are some health workers and humanitarian workers.
This announcement follows a Covid-19 cabinet meeting on Thursday and comes minutes after Australia banned all non-residents from its country.

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Luckily self-checkout is being pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?

What are your thoughts? Is that rude?
