FortyTwo
We’re massive fans of Forty two (just look at the beautiful marble table she got from the online store pictured above!). The range of furniture and home accessories is colossal, with over 20,000 items in its catalogue, and there are clearly gems to be found. Prices are kept pocket-friendly too, with sofas mostly under $400, bed frames under $300, and rugs under $200. Best of all, delivery is free if you spend above $300 (otherwise, a fee ranging from $7.90 to $19.90 will be charged). Smaller items can simply be picked up at their warehouse in Toh Guan. Look out for their sale section as that’s where you’ll find a sweet steal or two.
