Luckily self-checkout is being pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?
What are your thoughts? Is that rude?

Last year was the first time in 35 years Tokoroa locals missed seeing Santa Claus roll down Bridge St after volunteers from the Tokoroa City Lions Club pulled the pin on their annual parade due to escalating costs for health and safety and traffic management regulations.
Do you think Santa parades are a core service for councils? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

When seconds count, it can save lives.
We’ve had recent examples where drivers completely ignore the Police vehicle behind them. Other drivers slow right down without safely pulling over, and delay Police from responding to emergency situations. Please help us by allowing our team to get to those in need, so we can save lives.
Top tips when an emergency services vehicle approaches with lights and sirens:
🚑 You are required by law to pull to the side of the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
🚔 If the lights and siren of the Police vehicle continue past you, you can resume your journey.
🚒 Make sure you check the road is clear before moving on.
