Cannabis plant growing in supermarket carpark garden

One eagle-eyed customer has spotted a suspicious plant growing at a Hamilton Pak’n Save.

On December 18, a customer was shopping at the Mill St Pak’n Save in Hamilton when they noticed an odd-looking plant in the carpark garden.

After taking a closer look, they realised it was cannabis.

The plant looks to have grown alongside two flax bushes. The cannabis plant was a decent height, enough for the customer to notice it. 

Taking to social media, shopper who goes by the Reddit name u/Yenrab wrote: “Some interesting gardening at Pak’nSave these days.”

Their post attracted hundreds of people to comment with some making fun of the situation.

“Pak’nSave community gardens,” someone said.

Another joked about Pak’nSave’s stickman ad, saying: “Like the other supermarkets, stick man has his own collectibles.”

“Pak’nHarvest,” a third laughed.

“The prices may be low but the customers sure aren’t.”

Pak’nSave has been approached for comment.
