Default Shopping for Furniture - Will shops be open over Christmas?

I am moving to Sydney, Australia on 31st December and I am worried that the shops may not be open over the Christmas period. We were wanting to go out and buy all furniture, electricals and other household goods. Here in the UK the shops all reopen either New Years Day or the 2nd of January. I hope this is the same in Australia. I would be very grateful for any replies please.

Should be fine as shops in NSW are allowed to trade on New Years Day. I do however think shopping the day after you arrive will be quite a feat lol!

Anyway, trading hours info for NSW: http://www.industrialrelations.nsw.g...ing_hours.html
