Try www.superamart.com.au for furniture.
Also a lot of stores like Big W and KMart do all the small electrical stuff that you'll need.

I bought a hairdryer just before we came and it broke after a month or 2 - wasn't worth sending it all the way to UK and we had to change the plug!

Re: Buying electronic stuff and furniture
The big electrical chains are The Good Guys, Betta Electrical, Harvey Norman, Bing Lee and Domayne. The big furniture chains are Harvey Norman, Domayne, Freedom, Fantastic Furniture, Everyday Living, Forty Winks ... and a couple of others that escape my mind at this hour.
