portlaunay Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Gumtree Verge surfing Lots of used furniture stores dotted around Osbourne Park has lots of furniture stores Ikea It depends on what you'd categorise as 'cheap' and 'good' and what sort of style you like.

Guest Guest6235 Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Aldi & Lidl are meant to be on the way in the next couple of years for your groceries etc which will be good considering Coles & Woolworths are pricey. We used to shop at Morrisons/Waitrose before, but have been shopping at Aldi for the last few months to save a bit more and we love it, it's amazing what you get for the money spent. It also takes less time shopping as there isn't loads of choice for one item. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lou8670 Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Most places will let you haggle and/ or will sell stuff bundled so you can get, for example, a brand new coffee table, dining table and 6 chairs, buffet (side board), TV unit, three bar stools and rug (which is what my SIL got) for $3k from Supramart.

Be good to pop down and have a few pints, how's it going your end with the move? The move is pretty much all sorted, We have moved in with the In-Laws and house is all packed up and ready to ship. We are just holding back until January so we have a little extra cash. But January is just round the corner. Its been a very quick year so far.
