Does anyone have issues with pedestrian crossings and drivers treating them as courtesy crossings.

I'm not talking about walking out at last minute, but more the car 100m down the road just blatantly not making eye contact and carrying on through. Then the cars following do the same and I wonder if it's safer to just jaywalk.

Consideration could go a long way with us kiwis and our drivers attitudes on the road.

Am I wrong or missing something here?

Rant over!

Just wanted to give a shout out to Robin Goomes, first winner of women's comp at Rampage (she also won first women's slopestyle not that long ago).

Some gnarly stuff, just wanted to share as NZ media not great unless it is rugby or going in a straight line in or on water.

Recently the ACCC in Oz brought a case against supermarkets about marking prices as discounted or "specials" when actually that price is the normal price of the product. I feel that the supermarkets here do that too. One product for an example that seems to be always on "special" at our New World is Boring Oat milk, so when it actually went off special recently I took a picture because I had never seen it priced like that before at $5:15. Sure enough within 10 days it was back to being "on special" at $4.29.

I think that $4ish is the usual retail for this product, and the listed price of $5:15 is just BS to make people think the product is discounted. Have you noticed this with other products you usually buy?

Edit , link to ACCC case :

Christopher Luxon said for his 2025 plan curriculum will not be involving music and arts and It is not a focus?!?!?

I think personally they should add it back in! Even though people can put their noses up and say its not important it is.

Arts has lots of educational benefits and a positive impact in the child, it provides opportunities for brain development, mastery and builds self esteem (mental health is a problem for all ages even the young ones people!). It also develops their cognitive, social-emotional and multi-sensory skills.

Plus it's fun, engaging and challenging and kids love challenges.

And by the way when I say arts I mean

1. drama
2. painting/drawing
3. film making

This was a rant ( a bit ) but I wanted to turn it into a discussion.
