📍 Ferntree Gully | Est. 1992
Join us for the latest DEALS + DISCOUNTS! Ferne in 1992, our journey began as a humble pop-up store on Swanston Street in Melbourne’s C*D. Over the years, we’ve grown into one of Melbourne’s most beloved independent retail stores, offering unbeatable bargains across 30+ departments — from art & craft, stationery, and party supplies to health & beauty, household essentials, pet accessories, holiday decorations, food & drink, and more.

“The secret of a good retail store is range,” said Peter. "We’ve always catered to price-sensitive customers who love a bargain, and our full-range offerings at low prices make us the go-to destination for families, businesses, artists, and bargain-hunters alike." With over 3 million happy customers served, we take pride in our ability to surprise and delight — whether it’s quirky finds for theatre crews, cooling towels for gym lockers, or affordable essentials for everyday life. 🎉

We’ve been around for the artists, the tradies, the teachers, the firefighters, the mothers and aunts, the dads and uncles, the school kids, the families, the retirees, the busloads of visitors from the retirement homes, the event organisers, the interior stylists — and anyone who knows the thrill of a great deal. From our early days as a pop-up shop to our iconic superstore in Ferntree Gully, we’ve continued to evolve while staying true to our roots: family-owned, independent, and dedicated to providing a unique shopping experience. Our mission is simple: To serve and surprise the Melbourne community — local and beyond — with affordable goods, trusted service, and a one-of-a-kind retail experience. We’re not just about discounts — we’re about value, joy, and discovery. Visit us at our flagship store in Ferntree Gully, where the only thing we don’t discount is your shopping experience.

But wait, there's more!

​Because Uncle Arthur cannot resist a bargain, included in the sale were some absolutely amazing showroom furniture. We’re talking showcase cabinets, display tables and chairs, and statement pieces that are frankly far too nice to actually sit on.
