The dressmart is a great place to shop for clothing (men's, women's, children's, sporting) if you are living in Auckland. The stores are all discount or seconds stores for the main stores found in all the malls. You can get out of season stuff really cheap!

Name of Shop: Various
What To Buy: Newmarket is a little more up-market than other shopping areas in Auckland. You can find the usual shops at 277 Broadway but along Broadway there are little boutique stores as well. Smith and Caughey's also has a department store here as does The Warehouse and there is a Woolworths Supermarket.

Smith and Caughey's is an upmarket Department Store in two locations, Queen Street and Newmarket. I only ever shop here in their two sales that are held every year.
What To Buy: You can buy expensive foreign goods here, jewellery, cosmetics, perfumes, designer clothing and gifts.
What To Pay: Top price but the sales are good!

Name of Shop: AUCKLAND FISH MARKET
The Auckland Fish Market is perhaps one of the more interesting places to buy seafood in New Zealand. I guess it is somewhere a local is more likely to go than a tourist however the morning fish auction could be of interest to some visitors. The market opens at 5am for viewing with the auction starting at 6am Monday to Friday. There is a Seafood Cookery School, gourmet foods store, and many other seafood products (besides the obvious!)
What To Buy: Fresh fish is the order of the day. There are a range of other services though including fresh sashimi and sushi made to order by Japanese master sushi chef Minoru Yamazaki.
What To Pay: This depends entirely on what you are buying!

Auckland does look like such a great city, a place worthy of my moving too and settling down to lay some famiiy foundations down. | JessH Tue Apr 11, 2006 05:50 UTC
