So I asked them for when I visited the first supermarket, could I use it on the spot ?

Christchurch's paksuv seems to have both New World and Countdown, and you can use them after getting them on the first day. Hokitika's scenery is actually very nice. I stayed there as a resting point. There is a free glowworm cave that you can go to, which is not very big. There is a pizza shop nearby that serves delicious anchovy pizza.
