So, we make landfall in about 18 days. We’re effectively starting fresh.

I absolutely will need at the minimum a basic coffee maker to assist me in remaining human. We’ll also need a ton of usb wall adapters.

We’re planning on taking it easy the day we land, but we’ll hit the ground running hopefully the day after.

Initially we’re staying in Stones Corner, but we’re also open to exploring.

Where do you recommend for picking up basic home goods to get up and running?

Welcome!

You can get (slightly overpriced) office supplies from officeworks like stationary, desks, office chairs, paper, laptops, etc.

You can get furniture at IKEA , bunnings, local furniture stores and sometimes aldi.

No clue where coffee machines come from.

You can probably get a cheap one from Kmart. But I'd recommend JB Hifi or Good Guys.

Thanks! We are very much looking forward to introducing our little one to the glory that is IKEA. We expect to furnish with a fair amount from there, initially.
