Re: Shopping Online (amazon etc)
I don't want to promote the chav world here but if you ever want to get some cheap sports gear, I use sports direct. They charge about $20 delivery
Still works out far cheaper to by an umbrella from there for example. I could not believe how much umbrellas were in this country. $50 for one - are you trying to rob me blind!
On the rare occasion, Rebel may have some good deals but the sport shops back home are far cheaper (including delivery costs). I think even if I added GST, it'll still be far cheaper to order from there and pay delivery and GST.

I buy loads of stuff from Lookfantastic | Free Delivery
It's free delivery and I never pay full price as there are regular discount codes and offers if you sign up.

I use Shopbop.com Designer Women's Fashion Brands. Free for orders over $100 and very quick
Just ordered some bathroom hardware from Germany and even with shipping and GST etc still saving around $1,500. Fingers crossed it arrives ok and if it does then going to order lots more for the Reno

Re: Shopping Online (amazon etc)
After having choked at the NZ price tag for a pair of sandals I like at NZ$155 I decided to go on a mission to see where I could find them cheaper.
Just for laughs, as the joke really is on us, I checked out the usual retail price for exact same shoe in most major UK Dept. Stores seems to be about 50 quid but unfortunately I couldn't find anywhere with free international delivery.
I did however find two excellent Aussie sites that do next day DHL courier for FREE if orders are over $50 or $100

I have ordered my shoes at cost of NZ$123 and will get a free pair of sunnies thrown in too - a saving of 20% without too much effort.
