Re: NEXT in New Zealand?
I loved Next and Gap clothes, they really are a lovely fit and they washed really well too unlike a lot of clothes I've bought here. Although most of what I have now is from the Warehouse so say no more 
George in Asda did some really good stuff and I miss the cheap bargains from there.
Funny enough I've just been to pumpkin patch myself today and bought two tshirts in the sale for my children.

Funny you say that kiwi's love shopping I never thought that. We got a shock in the UK about how much everyone goes shopping as a family outing.

I'm an ebay sorta guy! 
Shopping should be banned in all it's forms - or at least banned if it involves me that is. My ideal shopping trip starts out like this:
1) Have brilliant idea for something we need
2) Have conversation with Sarah like - 'Just popping out for something dear - kids want to come?'
3) Drive to shop
4) Buy item
5) Drive home
6) Put up brand new shiny 50 inch plasma screen in front room and open a cold one.

Hey ladies, Mrs P18PPS here - visited NextUK today - fantastic to know what size trousers and shorts you're getting!!!
Loads of shorts, skirts and light weight trousers - they've also got a range of bikinis and swimsuits at the moment. I bought 2 pairs of good quality shorts for $60 - well chuffed the quality is much better than Shanton!!!! You can also register for online store updates - I've done so!!!
Thanks to SarahB for enlightening me to the treasures of NextUK New Zealand!!!

Re: NEXT in New Zealand?
I'm so happy to hear there is a Next in NZ! Even if we will be living near Wellington ... as a kiwi expat in the UK (whos moving home with brit partner and 1 year old) I dread the shopping back home ... I'm sure its not as bad as I think, but I still planned on stocking up on Next clothes for our toddler! Good excuse for a trip to Auckland, me thinks...

Re: NEXT in New Zealand?
Hi, I was told about this thread and am hoping the British Expats let me do some advertising here. I own the NEXT store in Dress Smart and would like to let you all know that there is a going to be a container clear out sale starting Saturday and a new container of goods arrives this month - hopefully in store by the 27th of March.
Just to let you know, we buy end of season, end of line clothes from NEXT and bring them out here in time for the NZ season.
Hope to see you all soon

How about a NEXT store in Dress Smart, Tawa - north of Wellington?

Re: NEXT in New Zealand?
I went into Next today and, sorry to say this folks, but was quite unimpressed with what was in there. Maybe it had been well picked over during the weekend or something.
Must time the next visit to coincide with a fresh delivery.
