As we come up to the festive season, a lot of us want to shop online and look for good bargains 🛍️🛒

Here’s a few tips to help you stay safe, avoid buying stolen property, and not get taken advantage of:
💸If it is too good to be true, it probably is, or it could be stolen property.
💸If it’s being sold as new, ask for the receipt for the warranty. If they can’t provide it, that’s a red flag.
💸Check the seller’s profile, is it new or relatively blank?
💸If you make a purchase and need to meet somebody to get it, choose somewhere well-lit and well populated in public, near CCTV. If it has to be somebody’s home, take someone with you and let someone else know where you’re going and when.
💸Be especially cautious when buying power tools or high-end toy brick building block sets.

Sadly, if you unknowingly buy stolen property, you’re aiding criminals and inadvertently supporting them to steal more.
If you find a suspect listing or social media scam, call 105, or report it with us online at 105.police.govt.nz

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.

Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.

So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?

The Hopeful ranked number two box office across all of New Zealand yesterday on opening night...

The Hopeful is a movie that takes you on a journey back to 19th century New England where courage, hope, war, and true love collide in a tale of epic proportions. After the War of 1812, William Miller sets off on a quest that unravels a profound truth with the power to transform everything. His revelation sparks a fire in Ellen Harmon and an unlikely band of supporters, who brave fierce resistance to champion a cause that could change the course of history. Join them as they defy the odds and unite to carve out a brighter tomorrow in this gripping and inspirational saga.
