Thieft at Woolworth.

Kristina from Welcome Bay

Last night just before 6pm I was walking up the ramp at Woolworth Cameron road when this guy stormed past me with a basket full of food. The trolly lady said he didn't pay. I talked to the so called secuity guards and they said they can't do anything. So what about calling the police? No, they won't come. So with all these cameras, secuity guards and face recognitions which would cost a fortune for the supermarkets, it still doesn't stop some criminals from stealing.... It just amazed me how easy it is for somebody to do this. If I was a big strong man I would have tackeld him, but I'm not, and wouldn't stand a chance. I do hope they report it to the police and have CTV cameras so they can catch him.

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.
