🌧️ STORM SPECIAL – LOOKING AFTER OUR LOCALS 🌧️
Weather’s turned a bit wild, so we’re doing our bit for the community 💪
Sand / Bag Sacks – just $1.50 each
👉 No matter if you need 1 or 1000, we’ve got you sorted.
We’ve already had Fulton Hogan and Downer in grabbing supplies this morning, and we reckon if it’s good enough for them, it’s good enough for everyone. Same sharp price, no funny business.
Perfect for:
✔️ Flood prep
✔️ Driveways & drains
✔️ Job sites
✔️ Home protection
Pop in, grab what you need, and stay safe out there. Let’s get through this storm together 🇳🇿💚

🧽 FOAM’S BACK, YA BLOODY LEGENDS 🧽

After a bit of a holiday (probably went fishing), the foam is BACK IN STOCK at Arthur’s Emporium 🇳🇿

✔️ Big sheets
✔️ A range of thicknesses
✔️ Cushions, seats, mattresses, DIY contraptions and “I’ll sort that later” projects

Perfect for the couch that’s seen better days, the caravan bed that feels like concrete, or that shed job you’ve been meaning to do since 2003.

Don’t muck around — once it’s gone, it’s gone quicker than smoko on a Friday.

📍 Pop in to Arthur’s Emporium and grab some while you’re at it

🎉 New Year, New Projects! 🎉

Kicking off the year the right way at Arthur’s Emporium – with a good ol’ stack of fabric flying out the door! 🧵✨
Whether you’re sewing, crafting, re-covering something that “just needs a tidy up”, or finally starting that project you swore you’d do last year… we’ve got you covered (literally).

Pop in, have a yarn, rummage around, and start 2026 the classic Kiwi way – DIY, practical, and a bit optimistic 😂

📍 Arthur’s Emporium – where New Year’s resolutions begin with “I’ll just pop in for a look” and end with arms full of goodies.
