Our * #Bunnings in #CBR have a big cage outside the garden section entrance. It is filled with free pots that people bring back and contribute, you can take what you need. Usually not the biggest, ie for small trees, but plenty of other sizes. All they expect is that pots are washed before returning.
*Belconnen, but maybe all of them.

Plus Bunnings are rolling out facial recognition around the country. Who knows what AI they're using for that and who they're sharing data with.

I don't want my hardware store to be part of the surveillance society. Luckily, Mitre 10 is in the same area.

Okay, off to #Mitre10 I go.
#Bunnings now has an #AI helper.
Place order at #Bunnings ( #Hammerbarn), immediately receive an email saying my order is cancelled.
Can't check what I ordered either. Errors all the way down.
Of course the money is out of my account, and may take 7-10 working days to be released back 🫠

Bunnings website enshittification complete 🤮

The last few times I've tried to use the #Bunnings website, it has been painfully slooooow.

This time I forgot to close the tab when u gave up in frustration, just switched to another. When I realised, and switched back much later …

Has anyone at Bunnings actually tested the abysmal (non)response time of their website lately??

How much money are #Bunnings giving #Google for that shit chatbot?
No #Bunnings today has caused a back log in my home projects. You better be open on the knocker tomorrow, I got shit to do. #homeimprovements

Bunnings have introduced 'Buddy' their new "AI assistant" across their entire site.. 🤦‍♂️

Last weekend, #Ikea. This weekend, #Bunnings. The joy of being dragged out shopping!
