Helping the courier karma
OK, this is a little bit mischievous, but I cannot be the only one sick to death with courier parcels being stolen left, right and centre, especially at this time of the year.
So, how about a little bit of payback to the actual thief?
Yes?
OK - here we go.
Open a courier box (or use an old one you have kept), empty it and then fill the used box up with your pets 'little brown treasures' you know what I mean, kitty litter, the dog's bombs from the back yard, your guinea pig's stuff from his cage - anything that is nasty.
Seal that box back up very carefully - making sure your name & address is not on the box - put a fake one if you have to (so there are no returns).
Then put it on your letterbox or the ground or by your front door, wherever it can easily be seen.
Someone will steal it.
Trust me, they will be doing you a huge favour by taking away this stuff and karma will be so beautiful to watch

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)
