I bought a Vodafone SIM card at Auckland International Airport when I
arrived and gave it back when I left. It was not a PAYG card - it cost
NZ$4.50 per week to hire which wasn't much and with a credit card and
email account they send you the bills weekly and by email. The
convenience of buying and leaving it at the airport was too great to
refuse.
If you do go for a PAYG and if you have a choice, choose Telecom rather
than Vodafone because their coverage is better. In particular, only
Telecom covers Stewart Island.
But buy once you get there - don't bother with the Net. They are more
expensive.
