Coromandel businesses are crossing fingers for a bumper Anzac weekend after its local economy lost $30-million in the year's first quarter.

It features cameras in secret locations from Thames all the way around to Waihi, photographing random vehicles.
Prizes include stays at a beach resort, dive trips and dozens of oysters
