Price of milk in supermarkets (Khandallah New World, possibly elsewhere)
Beware people - supermarkets may be overcharging you for the products you buy. An example - for a 2 litre bottle of Value brand light blue milk - New World Khandallah has the shelf price displayed at $3.74 and has had this price on shelf for many weeks. However the price charged at the till has increased a few times upwards to now being at $3.96. My understanding is that this is illegal - the price charged must match the price displayed. My husband has mentioned this several times to the checkout operators with a complete lack of interest. I guess gentleman that he is he doesn't want to make a big fuss in public or get held up in making a formal complaint that costs time.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
