Kia ora,
Just a quick update from our store: we'll be taking a short break on Sunday 28th and Monday 29th of January for Nelson Anniversary. Fear not, though โ we'll be back in action at 9 am on Tuesday 30th, eager to welcome you back!
On another note, we're on the lookout for more incredible volunteers to join our dedicated team on Friday and Saturday afternoons (1:30 pm - 5:00 pm). If you're interested, give us a call at 03 544 4956 โ we'd love to have you on board.
Also, we're in need of donations! If you have any Furniture, Homewares, Electrical items, or Winter Clothing to spare, drop them off during our opening hours. Alternatively, take advantage of our FREE collection service and schedule a pickup with our amazing team from Monday to Friday.
Your support means the world to us!
Kindly,
