Save Mart Levin
Hi Neibours
Trigger warning could be spelling mistakes (sorry)
I found myself in an interesting position today..
I went down to save mart Levin with my toddler today to have a look around and find some bargains.
I was stopped at the door pritty quickly and was then told I can not have my hand bag in the store.. her words were leave it in the car or leave it up at the counter...
Now I will admit I did see the sign but I was abit shocked as my hand bag is not a huge one I really didn't think it was going to be an issue well boy I was wrong.
Now I would totally understand if I had a big backpack or a extra large handbag
But the thing is my car is a keyless entry so if I was to "leave my bag in the car" any jo blogs could jump in and zoom off , if I was to bring my keys in I am then juggling keys, a wallet and a toodler all whilst looking for my bargains.
There was no way I felt comfortable leaveing my bag at the counter because by the way they act about theft ect.. how am I to know that my handbag is even safe behind their counter?
I am just abit shocked about the while experience and so bummed as I left because I did not feel safe leaving my bag anywhere but my shoulder! I have never experienced anything like this before
My question is have any of you? Am I over reacting? What do you guys think has this happened to anyone els?
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
