A worldwide helium shortage is behind the price hike, which is being noticed by David's Emporium in Hamilton.
It's not so bad if you want one standard latex balloon, manager Kim Owen said.

It's true that you agreed to a legally binding contract as soon as you drove into the parking lot. Thankfully, New Zealand law protects consumers from the exploitative clauses that corporates love to slip in the fine print.

Under contract law, parking companies can only claim for "the actual and reasonable costs they incurred". Charging $65 for a short overstay in an empty carpark is as far from reasonable as you can get.
