Default The Warehouse

Soon I will have to outfit a unit prior to buying a house.

There is a place in Melbourne where you can get all your 'emergency' crockery, cutlery, kettle, iron and board, toaster for cheap called the "The Warehouse". Excellent whilst waiting for the rest of your gear to arrive, and you can still spend that bit more and still get some good stuff, not the most povo stuff.

just a 2p worth of tips.

Woman in department store feeling the width of the have-to-have cutlery and dreaming of raucus dinner parties turning on the tynes of forks, husband patiently waiting indifferently, she turns to me:

"What do you think of these?"

I: "There's more choice at St. Vinny de Pauls - each guest can have different cutlery - and only $2 the whole set".

She: Snicker.

The Warehouse is a NZ company - NZ's answer to Walmart.

In many smaller towns it's practically the only major store. Discount reputation - some shoddy products, some good products.

Looks like it's expanded into Australia, but not to Western Aussie yet:

Though I'm sure there are other equivalents

Crazy Clarks, Crazy Gorilla, Dollar Value, or similar discount? stores are everywhere. If you ever go to Brisbane check out the Crazy Clark warehouse on the Airport Drive, it is huge. Importing crap from China, Taiwan, etc is one of the real growth industries. Shame it all ends up in landfill after a few months.

Crazy Crap from China
