The Best Furniture Shop owner Kim Booth grew up in a family of furniture retailers and decided to turn a traditional sales strategy on its head with the launch of the New Brighton store nine years ago. Instead of a plush showroom taking up high-demand real estate space, The Best Furniture Shop has a huge, simple fit-out in a low-rent part of town.
Savings from low-overheads would go straight to customers, with rock-bottom prices every day. Check it out on our website, or instore at 61 Hawke Street, New Brighton.

It comes after news that the number of people in New Zealand able to speak te reo Māori is declining. What do you think? Should it be made compulsory? Do you think this will help retain the language?

People with concerns about the downstream effects of the Christchurch Northern Corridor will have the chance to express their views in a public meeting next month.
Those who submitted through the consultation process have been invited to speak at the meeting on August 6, in front of the Papanui-Innes Community Board and a traffic expert at the city council chambers. Any potentially affected owners and occupiers of streets identified in the report will have the opportunity to engage with council.
A short feedback summary of the 408 submissions received was posted online last week which revealed several common themes from concerned residents.
These include safety of pedestrians, impact on businesses, loss of parking and environmental impacts, including air pollution, noise and vibration levels.
Overall, submitters expressed concern about a general sense of loss of community the increased traffic and road changes may bring.
