Shopping question

[Shumba]

Hi all, will be moving to NZ in the new year and just wanted to check a few things with regards to shopping:

Firstly, what is the 'plus size' market like - I"m a UK18 will i struggle to find clothes (female)
Second, I saw that it's cheaper to bring in toiletries from outside NZ when we first arrive - still true
Third, kids clothes good/cheapish variety?
Fourth, I have big feet (UK 9) will I struggle to find decent shoes?

We will be in the UK and Bangkok between now and the move so should I stock up in these two places before we arrive?

Thanks in advance

You shouldn't have a problem, plus size is not in the minority here. Some shops only stock to size 16 but not the majority.
