With millions of Aussies all across the country working from home<\/a>, it\u2019s never been more important to have the right setup<\/a>.<\/p>\n

While you might be able to get by with a dining room chair and a laptop<\/a>, having all the\u00a0gadgets and furniture<\/a>\u00a0that create a\u00a0good work environment can be a game-changer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s where Officeworks comes in<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The stationery and furniture juggernaut<\/a> wants to make it cheaper by dropping the price<\/a> of more than 400 items.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith interest rates and everyday costs continuing to put pressure on household and business budgets, customers are looking for dependable value on the products they use most<\/a>,\u201d Officeworks managing director John Gualtieri said.<\/p>\n

RELATED:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re seeing customers shop more intentionally \u2014 purchasing more frequently but keeping a closer eye on what goes into each basket.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s why lowering prices on the products they buy regularly can make a meaningful difference over time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Check out the full 400 discounted items here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This comes off the back of a recent price drop in February<\/a>, where more than 1,000 everyday items were reduced at the checkout.<\/p>\n

Officeworks said this latest batch of products<\/a> is perfect for those who work, study or run a business, and includes desks, chairs, stationery, and workspace essentials.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s even better is that these price drops aren\u2019t temporary; they\u2019re permanent<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re an Officeworks for Business customer, you\u2019ll be able to receive an extra 5 per cent off reduced items. OnePass members will also get free delivery on eligible Officeworks orders.<\/p>\n
