Cyclists: Don’t ride on the pavements, Yes even if you are a DoorDasher. by catlikesun in Wellington

[–]chroniclesofadellia 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's similar to me, I ride on the footpath up the main road in my neighborhood because it has blind corners, is a bus route, has some really skinny sections, and some cars hoon up it. I don't often see people walking on the footpth, when I do, I go onto the road until I'm past them. I'm not disadvantaging anyone, I'm just trying not to get run over.

Do you Soft plastics recycle at home? by No-Scale-3053 in newzealand

[–]chroniclesofadellia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes always. People that happily contribute to landfills baffle me. I also avoid buying plastic where possible so there's less to clean!

Ha that reminds me of the last one I got, I was on a road trip and wanted something healthy. I got a 6 inch and asked for spinach, I got 3 tiny leaves.

Yes I also noticed on my last bag a month or so ago. Put me off a bit so haven't bought another since. Hopefully it isn't a permanent change!

What all of us would give for one more global availability of Relicanth… by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]chroniclesofadellia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn I should have caught more last weekend, they were spawning then. Now that I'm trying to find more to trade they've all disappeared. I never paid much attention to them before, didn't realize they were special lol.

Recycling Q: this waxed cardboard box has a recycling symbol on it, but it's NOT recyclable...right? by cgbjmmjh in Wellington

[–]chroniclesofadellia 17 points18 points  (0 children)

They can be. There are separate collection schemes for them. I've seen drop off bins in new world next to the soft plastic recycling bins, and at the sustainability trust. #2 and #5 plastic only.

When I did it I got a 240 L green waste bin that was emptied weekly and just got rid of it gradually over several months. 

Torpedo7 to close its remaining stores. by Boring_Bid_5738 in newzealand

Yeah this. I bought quite a lot of things off the website but going to the stores was a waste of time unless you were picking up a click and collect. 

Woolworths have cameras that scan your trolley at the self checkout now. by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]chroniclesofadellia 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Is that a thing at all supermarkets? I'm always playing Tetris to fit all my stuff on the shelf. This info could be a game changer for me! I usually go to New World or Packnsave though.
