APRIL/MAY 2020 – CUSTOMER OF THE MONTH
Well …. we opened up again after a long long long Covid 19 lockdown and were delighted to see customers back instore and buying buying buying! We noticed a lot of pregnant ladies and some very very very pregnant ladies too. One of which was Debbie who was two weeks away from having a baby! She bought some new bedroom furniture for the new babies room in preparation and then 2 days later her partner, Mr Wildly (photo proud DAD), turned up to pick up their new furniture with a big smile on his face as they had JUST HAD A NEW BABY GIRL!! After a pretty torrid for everyone during Covid lockdown, this was GREAT NEWS and we thought customer of the month worthy. Many congrats – what great news and nice people to deal with too.
Sarah and Roy were a delight to deal with. Always patient, polite and good fun too. They made a 3rd party situation eventually come right without any drama and were always helpful and provided information that made it easy for Robs Furniture Warehouse to sort out their sale for them. Roy still has his eye on a Bar for sale at the shop but we have the feeling Sarah will get her new lounge suite first! Enjoy your new bed guys and keep safe out there. Cheers Rob.
February 2020 – CUSTOMER OF THE MONTH
Joy and Neville (where are you Neville?!) came to buy a new bed in
our sale. It’s nice when we sell something to a fellow local retailer – always
good to support each other as the money we make gets spent (by my wife!!!)
again in the local community. And we had a lot of fun with these great
guys and swapped a lot of Aussie holiday stories. They both love their
new bed and it is with great pleasure, Robs Furniture Warehouse makes
Joy and Neville our February customer of the month.

Rob’s Furniture Warehouse….?…. Champagne!! – and so we gave
them a bottle to enjoy. Lovely to catch up on a special Mapua
Summer evening.
