After 12 years since I last visited a bunnies shop and was escorted out by security because they would live by their 'we'll better it by 10% I was told by family friend who is now working at same store my photo is still on managers office wall.... hmm  think I could pay him a visit again.
I am treated as a friend by the staff of Home Hardware, get special prices, discount card and intelligent helpful advice. You guys are your own worst enimmies polluting that ugly green shop |
Unfortunately that's not the case where I live Bunnings are like a rash over the greater western Sydney area, I have to drive past a bunnings in every direction now to get to a different brand hardware store
We had a fantastic independently owned hardware store less than 3km from my front gate, you couldn't pull in there and buy a sling of timber, but if you rang him before lunch on Thursday you would have it on your lawn when you got home Friday
unfortunately he shut the doors on June 30 last year because too many locals were driving past his door to go to bun-yips
This guy was a proper hardware store Nails by the KG, the whole bit, he even had an urn at the door with coffee for the tradies now its bunnings and masters as far as the eye can see
we have a home and a miter 10 but they're further away than bunnings, I put in the hard yards and went to the Miter 10 a few months back to get some paint, after the chick finished telling friends the story of her sons year 10 formal and finally asked if she could help me she told me that they didn't get that special in, (6L cans of exterior paint) and wasn't willing to help me with 3 X 4L cans of exactly the same paint, I left and unfortunately I had no option but to go to bunnings on my way home who bettered the miter 10's special price
