Bay of Plenty Times So last week I trotted off to a shop in Greerton. Being part of the Team of Five Million I stood at the shop door looking for the Covid app to scan. Nothing to be seen. Went inside and asked an attendant who directed me to a countertop. Nothing to be seen. I was then told it was under a pile of new deliveries. I gave up.
Next shop stop was in Fraser Cove. No Covid app at the door. At the counter I was told I would see it on the back of the door on my way out.
