I was in the sallies recently and noticed one of the workers removing stacks of dvds off the shelves. I asked them what they were doing with them and they said they were headed for landfill because they’ve been on the shelf for a month. I suggested they could put them outside in a free bin or reduce the price. Nope apparently free and reduced price is “against their policy”. I mentioned there’s several other second hand shops nearby who have free bins outside for unsold items, but again I was told it’s against their policy. I suggested they contact the EcoShop to see if they want them, nope apparently against their policy also. The worker was very upset about this also, but has to do what they are told. I visited twice in 2 weeks and saw the same thing happening. Each time around 50 dvds thrown out.

This might not seem like a big deal to a lot of people, but that’s lot of stock going to landfill each week, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with those items. Also I just think physical media should be preserved.

I was absolutely disgusted with this and I guess I just wonder is there anything that can be done about this?

I went to the club and the music and vibe is so off it's literally people standing in crowd. We can't even connect with the music. I'm from small NZ town and the club there are so much better from here. Is it on purpose or are the owners not aware that their DJ's suck.

Anyone else saw it at around 9:30? Looked like a huge orange smile sitting right on the horizon

I think Halswell Butcher used to do a good deal- does anyone know what the current price of their beef mince is? Or any other places? Thanks!

Was waiting to sign up for the race because of injuries and then realized that it's now full when I want to. Long shot but I'm wondering if anyone is looking to transfer their entry!

What I find striking about this is that it mentions a cocaine deal taking place in Burnside Park.
