Poll: Have you come across people begging?
Beggars are taking a softly-softly approach at city supermarkets amid tough economic times, yet authorities are still fielding hundreds of complaints about the practice every year.
Some people are clearly uncomfortable with encounters outside supermarkets, shops and other sites, with Hamilton City Council acknowledging it gets hundreds of calls over “begging incidents” a year.
