š§Lost/found Juiceš§
To the person who was shopping late this afternoon (Monday) at Pak 'n Save (you will know which branch), and found when they got home that they had left a bottle of juice behind, I have retrieved it for you from the trolley and handed it over to the customer service desk with a brief explanation as to where I found it.
A lady in the carpark said you had just driven off and another couple saw me take it into the store.
You will know which juice, flavour, brand and size.
Don't forget to take your receipt as proof of purchase to the customer service desk and fingers crossed you will be reunited with the naughty juice bottle which tried to escape.
I'm posting to this here as well as across the West Auckland Facebook pages I belong to with the hope you read this. Good luckš

Smoke in Mt Wellington
Smoke has been seen coming from the crater of the Auckland maunga Mt Wellington.
Images of the smoke began appearing on social media on Friday afternoon.
Around 1.45pm, Fire and Emergency (Fenz) shift manager Josh Pennefather told the NZ Herald a crew was fighting a fire of about 60 square metres in size.
āItās spreading up hill ā¦ [but] thereās no property at risk at this stage,ā Pennefather said.
Six fire trucks were in attendance working to contain a grass fire that's spreading up the maunga.
A helicopter was on its way to assist firefighting efforts, he added.
At 2pm, Pennefather shared that the fire was contained and they were working to extinguish it, including ākeeping an eye on a whole bunch of hot spotsā.
