Better deals on quality furniture

The Best Furniture Shop

A curious feature of the furniture market is that if you know where to look, you can often find better deals at independent retailers than big chain stores.

We’ve got freedom to choose what we stock, which is how we get some pretty exclusive, fabulous furniture that is so affordable.

A curious feature of the furniture market is that if you know where to look, you can often find better deals at independent retailers than big chain stores.

We’ve got freedom to choose what we stock, which is how we get some pretty exclusive, fabulous furniture that is so affordable.

Founded 10 years ago, The Best Furniture Shop has gone from strength to strength. We don’t have a massive markup because we don’t have high overheads. That’s how we keep the prices down.

Filling The Best Furniture Shop’s large, warehouse-like store is a wide variety of quality furniture for every room of the house. Items exactly the same as found in big name stores but without the high mark-up.

For Christchurch shoppers, delivery is just $50 for as many items as will fit in the van.

Poll: Should learning about climate change be part of the school curriculum?

Stacey Reporter from Stuff

Climate change is the most critical issue of the moment, and has been described by our prime minister as her generation's "nuclear-free moment". Its impacts, regardless of your views on it, are only going to get greater.

Yet it is not part of our school curriculum.

Climate change is the most critical issue of the moment, and has been described by our prime minister as her generation's "nuclear-free moment". Its impacts, regardless of your views on it, are only going to get greater.

Yet it is not part of our school curriculum.

Some experts say that has to change. It is such an existential threat that not to make it a requirement to teach children about climate change is doing them a great disservice, they say.

Ambitious proposals for a memorial to the March 15 terror attack response include a large ornamental water feature, a playground and a conference centre.

The New Zealand Federation of Islamic Associations has drawn up concept plans for a memorial to "capture the legacy of how New Zealanders all came together as one" after the shootings at two Christchurch mosques.

The architecture firm behind the concept plans, Apa Architects in Rotorua, estimated the project would cost between $10 million and $15m to build.

Missing cat

Simon from Mount Pleasant - Redcliffs

Our family pet, Nala, has been missing from the Major Hornbrook/ Bellview Terrace area for about a week, which is very unusual. She is very inquisitive and likes to scavenge so may well be locked in a shed or something. She doesn’t always wear ASICS runners 😀
