Move over Kmart: Shoppers rave about 'magic' new living range at The Reject Shop: 'I need everything'
The Reject Shop has taken its homewares range to a whole new starry level - leaving astrology fans excited about the latest bargain buys.
The 'cosmic seeker' range features zodiac signs, mystical décor and pops of colour so shoppers can give their homes a dreamy makeover without breaking the bank.
The whimsical pieces include $12 crystal candles, $6 cosmic books, $8 Earth, fire and water trinket jars, $6 photo frames, mirrors, $3 zodiac plaques, $6 oil burners, tea light holders, $3 canvases, $9 incense set, $15 cushions, and more.
'Take an astral nostalgic trip back to the celestial motifs of the 90s. Love these to the moon and back,' the retailer said on social media.
'We are so pumped, our Cosmic seeker collection is now in stores.'
Thousands of shoppers have expressed their excitement over the new range, with one joking: 'I need a second job and sell my kidney to keep up with all these beautiful collection.'
'Omg I need everything,' another shared.
'OMG this is so up my alley. Monday is pay day and I am going to go buy everything,' one shared, laughing.
'I'm in love with this vibe,' another added.
'Its giving that 90s whimsical magic era in the best way,' one suggested.
Many praised the retailer for the stunning new pieces, with one saying: '10/10 to whoever is in charge of these drops.'
'The Reject Shop is absolutely smashing it lately. I've changed my home décor twice already,' one mum said, laughing.
'The Reject Shop is 110 per cent underrated. We need to gate keep,' another shared.
Meanwhile, some shoppers pointed out some of the new jars and candles resembled versions from popular home décor retailer dusk.
'Those Earth, wind and fire jars are the exact jars they use to make the astrology candles at dusk,' one said.
'Wait I have one of those exact large candles I was gifted from dusk three years ago,' another shared.
'Those fire, water and Earth candles are the exact same ones dusk sold a year or so ago. I have the fire one in my loungeroom,' one added.
It's the latest in a string of hits for the store, which is increasingly taking on the likes of Kmart and Target with its affordable designer-inspired collections that are designed to mix and match.
Aussie bargain hunters were thrilled earlier this year with news of The Reject Shop's latest multi-million-dollar takeover deal, which has promised an expansion of 700 new stores nationwide.
Canadian retail giant Dollarama acquired the store for an eyewatering $259million - a deal that marked a milestone moment for the brand.
Previously speaking to FEMAIL, a Reject Shop spokesperson teased that they couldn't give away too much when it came to their future plans, but did hint they may explore more luxury-inspired offerings.
'We have some very exciting homewares collections coming up throughout the year and cannot wait to share them with our customers,' they said.
'We love home decor that gives a colourful personality to spaces, giving our customers the chance to make exciting choices with their interior design while remaining on a budget.'
The Reject Shop CEO Clinton Cahn announced that he was 'excited about the opportunities that this transaction presents', as many Australia consumers are in such a cost-of-living crunch.
This deal will also see a huge rise in availability for Aussies to get their hands on products even quicker, with more physical stores to cater to the rising demand.
