I've not been sufficiently on it and haven't sorted anything for my dad and his wife, who live in NZ, South Island. Please help me, vipers! I thought Moonpig would rescue the situation but they are in Aus and don't deliver to NZ at this time of year 🤦🏻‍♀️

You can send stuff to NZ on Amazon US, takes a week though if memory serves from last time I did it so might be cutting it fine for Christmas.

Otherwise I've used Mighty Ape before- https://www.mightyape.co.nz/mn/

Find the nearest florist or garden center near their place and send a voucher.

Yep Mighty Ape is the way to go for this. Saved my bacon multiple times when I’ve only remembered my NZ nephews’ birthdays at short notice. (Tbf it’s DH’s family who are there so he should do the remembering!)

Use amazon NZ

Maybe something sent to them Ballentynes or a gift card from there? It’s a nice department store in Christchurch

Indecisivelurcher · 17/12/2025 17:10

Sorted!!! Thanks so much

Ballantynes is an excellent suggestion.

Just browsing their website and it has a great selection!

Huge thanks for this thread and the Mighty Ape recommendation! I'd forgotten to get anything for my brother there and now he has a Tayto light on the way :D

Edited for typo

This has helped me too! My daughter is in South Island, NZ for six months and I am sending her money for Christmas but just wanted to get her a little something else. And was really stuck for ideas. Thanks so much for the Mighty Ape suggestions. Fabulous.

RenoDakota · 17/12/2025 21:55

And my daughter now has a bottle of perfume on the way!

Fubbs · 19/12/2025 12:58

I've also ordered from Ballantyne for my brother. I didn't realise the exchange rate difference so I was worried my Space Tayto might look puny. An international twitch!
