Description

An enchanted Santa experience was more of a nightmare before Christmas for an Auckland mum, after she discovered the T&Cs would allow the business to use any photos taken of her children for its advertising or social media. Enchanted Christmas in Auckland's Newmarket boasts 180 decorated xmas trees, over a 150,000 lights, decorations and photo opportunities with Santa and the Grinch.

Dickinson spoke to Lisa Owen.
