Poll: Have you witnessed shoplifting in your area?
It’s a crime that generates losses of $2.6bn a year, was the catalyst for a notorious murder, claimed the scalp of a high-profile MP - and has prompted the Government to propose beefed up citizens arrest powers - but how bad is shoplifting in New Zealand?
Under the Official Information Act, the Waikato Times asked how many Kiwis were charged - and convicted - for two discrete crimes; shoplifting under $500, and shoplifting over $1000.
Have you witnessed shoplifting in your area? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

What's one highway or road that needs attention?
We've all been on a summer roadie and experienced first-hand the state of our roads.
If you've ever been stuck in a summer traffic jam, had near-misses on dangerous turns or feared for your life on clifftops (while the car behind you is tail-gating!) - you may have an opinion on this one.
Tell us what main road or highway you think needs some serious attention across the country, and why!
