Have you tried The Warehouse? They sell everything!

They are gift cards though, so you might have to get it sent to her NZ address.

It would also be worth looking at Kiwi Property gift card (I found this by googling Sylvia Park mall), it can be used in loads of different shops, the mall is huge and in Auckland and it could be useful depending on the participating stores. Can only be sent to an NZ address though

The Warehouse, Farmers, Bed Bath and Beyond, all have a huge variety of home ware, Linen, appliances, clothes, decorative tat etc and are in most malls and towns so can be used anywhere or in some places you may be able to actually chose a gift and have it sent to her ( and your pound goes over twice as far as our dollar does)

Farmers you can buy gift cards online and it's a bit classier than The Warehouse for a gift and they have a good range of stuff you can buy in store or online- www.farmers.co.nz/gift-cards/buy-gift-cards.

Is it homewares/dept store type voucher you're after? If not there are others more specifically for books/clothes/something else.

Thanks everyone but I need something I can give her before she goes. She's actually a work colleague so it will be her work leaving gift, I can't give her nothing until she arrives there.

None will let me buy online and deliver to UK or a U.K. email address. How crazy is that?!

Any more suggestions?

you cant get the cards delivered to the uk. print out the email and wrap it round a small non-food gift.

GenericUsername101 · 14/09/2018 21:58

ASOS? They email the vouchers so you could buy a NZ dollar gift card to use here and get it emailed to you, then print it and pop it in a card (and forward the email on in case she loses it...). ASOS Australia cover NZ.

What sort of gift? What about a beautiful Nz art / gift gallery voucher where she can get something gorgeous, Nz pounamu, silver jewellery, a print, a flax kite?
Garden party, poi room small boutique stores like this, kiwi owned. Email them and they will sort you out

Redcurrent do some nice things, a bit more boutiquey. Just a small chain. They do online vouchers that are emailed www.redcurrent.co.nz/online-gift-voucher.html
