General Wellington thread~

^ Exactly what the title says~

....Mainly made though because CRAFT FOAM.
So the asian grocery on cuba, the one outside the bus stop and next to Marbecks? Its been changed into a random dollar store type thing.
They've got packets of A4 eva foam for $2.50, with four sheets in each pack. They're the same purple 'Craft Workshop' brand, but a bit thicker than other packs I've bought from dollar stores. They're in coloured packs, each has a pink, purple, green and orange sheet.
They've also got 3pk in just black, white, or yellow, but they're slightly thinner than these packs, and only have three whilst still being $2.50.

Just thought I'd share :>

This thread sounds like a marvellous idea! Wellington is Fabulous, and I am totally not biased.

Ohheh, I keep looking in there. Ttly didn't notice craft foam (I've been looking on eBay for craft foam, lol) I better go look there 8D. I thought everything was $3 + GST?

Speaking of cheap cosplay supplies, does anyone know where I can get cheap ear phones that attach by connecting to your ear?

Richard smith, the phillips ones are like that, got mine for about 10 bucks~

Lolol, Richard Smith. Cool, I'll look there next time I go into town (:
(Although a headband might work, and it'd be cheaper ... but that would also mean destroying my Pikachu ears ;__; )

as for the 3 dolars plus gst place, that wouldn't happen to be the new Japanese shop thats opened where Hallensteins used to be, next to that pharmacy on Cuba?

if it's anything like a similar shop in auck, they have excellent chunky zips.

By Pura. 18/11/10, 09:48 am

I know they have a few sewing stuff there, not sure about chunky zips though xD

By azeria. 18/11/10, 10:04 am

Oh will have to check out that store.
Did not see it at all today :>

By Pura. 18/11/10, 11:06 am

... Then what store are you talking about? //ttly thought you were talking about that one

By acidpinkbunny. 18/11/10, 11:11 am

Do you mean the little two story shop that's on Dixon Street?
I was sad when I noticed the little asian shop was gone! It was where I got last-minute noodles if I decided I didn't feel like cooking..
Handy to know there's foam in there though.

The one I went into is Wisebuys on dixon street. & yea, used to be that massive asian grocery store.
....Their 2% was expensive though >__>

By Thornback. 18/11/10, 02:34 pm

the korean owned food store further up dixon had more reasonable 2% prices!

... So is this the shop that used to be outside the bus stop and next to the CD and DVD Store? (or whatever music store it was) on cuba street? I didn't know it had re-opened xD
