I live in the Wellington region and we are apparently waiting for the next big earthquake to hit our region. Local buildings are being forced to make changes to protect the public, just in case that earthquake happens.
When I shop I visit several supermarkets, including one that is very proud of the fact that they have pallet loads of goods stacked above the aisles, a few of the aisles have cages in place to stop movement but most of the aisles don't.
My questions for you are - if you use this supermarket chain:
1) Have you have visited in a region not expected to have earthquakes (Auckland) - have any cages been put up above the shelves?
2) In earthquake prone areas, has your local supermarket put up cages for your protection? I would hope that all the stores in the Christchurch area have been done.
3) Have you ever looked up at the top of the shelves and seen all the items just waiting for the day they can come down on staff and customers? I don't fancy my chances of being able to dodge them in the packed aisles.

Poll: Does grocery bagging affect where you shop?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.

Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.

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?
