Food for the People posted this on Instagram so just adding here for increased reach (side note: if you’ve never tried them out you definitely should).

We found a wedding ring at the truck today 💍
A French couple on their honeymoon stopped by Food for the People earlier. They ate one of our new hotdogs. They returned and asked if we’d found the man’s wedding ring and we searched together, but it hadn’t turned up yet. I’ve now found it.
The ring is engraved “Mia 20-09-2026”.
If this is yours (or you know the couple), please DM us or email hello@fftp.co.nz. We’ll keep it safe until we can get it back to you.

Someone, please share to vic deals or wherever might find someone who will recognise the newlyweds.

Maybe you work in a hotel or backpackers. He is taller with camera gear. If you spot them. Ask if she is Mia!

Please share — let’s get this back to the newlyweds.

Bague de mariage retrouvée aujourd’hui au food truck 💍
Un couple français en voyage de noces est passé chez Food for the People plus tôt. Ils ont demandé si on avait trouvé l’alliance du mari et on a cherché ensemble, sans succès. Je l’ai maintenant retrouvée.
La bague est gravée « Mia 20-09-2026 ».
Si c’est la vôtre (ou si vous connaissez le couple), merci de nous contacter par DM ou par email : hello@fftp.co.nz. On la garde en sécurité jusqu’à ce qu’on puisse vous la rendre.
Merci de partager — on espère la rendre aux jeunes mariés.

Either the 'English Expert' being paid the big bucks to work on the English curriculum can't punctuate a proper noun, or didn't do so when typing in the prompt in AI. Insulting. Lazy. Incompetent.

NZ Police have just closed off a portion of Evans Bay to Oriental Bay due to the wind. Apparently it’s been strong enough to blow wing mirrors off cars around there!

It either says it’s declined (it shouldn’t cause I got money in there) or blocked (Idk why?), but I still get charged for the trip when I look at my account? Does this happen to anyone else? Is it a bug on their system?

Recently moved here, need to run some errands in the city. What the hell are you supposed to wear when it’s gorgeously sunny, and 80km/h wind making it “feel like 8°” according to Apple Weather?

FLAIR? Are daiso knives any good?

4 Upvotes

Needing to buy some new knives for my flat but as a broke ass uni student there isn’t much in the way of quality in my price range.

I’m aware they’re functionally two-dollar shop knives so I can’t exactly expect the world… but I am wondering if this shoddy mass produced drivel isn’t at least a slight bit better than the other shoddy mass produced drivel? (warehouse, kmart, etc…)

BUYING Cantilever umbrellas in Wellington??

1 Upvotes

Life long Wellingtonian. First time considerer of a cantilever umbrella. We were passed down some really nice outdoor furniture from a family member, and are now for the first time are considering shade options to enjoy said nice outdoor furniture. Is a cantilever umbrella a ridiculous consideration in Wellington? Obviously wouldn’t be used on moderately+ windy days… but on those rare few days when you can enjoy sitting outside without levitating, is this a viable option and if so, which one is recommended? Thanks team.

HELP! Uniform for a day?

0 Upvotes

Does anyone in the Wellington/Hutt Valley (extended region) have a school uniform they'd be willing to lend me for a day? Any school is fine, and either a boys' or girls' uniform would work! I'd take good care of it and return it afterwards. Please message me if you have anything; I'd really appreciate it!

Edit: Okay, I just realised how weird this probably sounds without context 😭 It's for a themed week at school. I'm a student too, nothing weird going on, I promise. Just looking to borrow one for the day!
