Police want to hear from anyone who sees missing Hastings mum Megan Lee or her two children.

A Hastings mother missing for a month with her two young children was seen at a Whangarei supermarket about two weeks ago.

A woman, who works at Countdown Whangarei, told the Herald she served the trio in the supermarket about two weeks ago.

"It was Countdown Whangarei about approximately two or three weeks ago. I remember them. I'm a checkout operator and they came to my counter ... I remember the girl with the glasses.

"I have a pretty good memory of faces," she said.

When asked of their disposition, how they appeared, the woman, who did not want to be named, said "they all just seemed normal".

The trio were last known to be travelling in a silver Toyota Corolla station wagon, registration LCG323. Anyone who sees the family is urged to call 111 immediately.
