Shopping - esp Perth
 

I'm addicted to shopping - especially at Next.
Does anyone know if they have any stores in Oz - especially Perth ? Or do I need to stock up before I leave ?:confused:

Hi,

No they don't have next in australia at all! I'm addicted too, you could always order through their website and get a friend to send it to you.
They have some nice individual shops in subiaco in Perth but the clothes shopping in general is a bit disappointing especially for suits which I buy from next.

Sorry!! :) :)

Oh well - it was a bit of a long shot ! At least there's an Ikea and Body Shop so two out of three isn't bad.

:)

Hi

have some links for shops that I found ok for fashion in oz, you will soon get used to something else!!!:D

After a while you will forget all about Next etc , my mum bought me m&s underwear over , but i could have lived with out them .
Swifts right there are lots of shops to choose from all depends what you want . Surf brands are big here as in the UK Adidas . nike etc are big. Daughter loves everything with Roxy and billabong on right down to underwear, phone holder and all her school stuff:rolleyes: Think alot shop at Target , Sussan has some nice stuff but roxy stuff is very nice and good quality like swift said.

Jo Tell me about it:rolleyes: My daughter was going crazy when we were there a few weeks ago. Her favourite shop was called city beach as it had Roxy and Billabong:rolleyes:

dunno if I did that right but it's under Flanno Family

Thanks for all your replies. I guess it doesn't take long to adjust to new shops and I don't suppose I'll be needing my jumpers and thermals anyway !!

Oh yes you will, it gets bloody freezing here for about 3 or 4 months a year. Particularly at night.

The houses are not insulated and none have central heating.

Oh no - don't say that - hubby is expecting a heat wave all year round.

If it gets so cold, why don't the houses have central heating ? Do you have fires instead ?

I think they are in denial that for a portion of the year the weather is as crappy as the Motherland. Either that or they are cheap skates.

They're in denial about winter here. They rug up, sell ugg boots and ugly heaters.

What we really need is central heating and Next.

I wonder why Gap gave not ventured into the Australian market as they are everywhere else:(
