Bunnings has launched a NZ "loyalty" scheme. In return for giving Bunnings your data to aggregate and sell, shoppers will *win* an amazing five dollars for every $500 they spend.
Wow! A whole one per cent discount. Thanks, Bunnings.

Looks like genAI is about to take another great leap forward in enshittification.
Google seems to be about to graduate from locking in consumers with massively subsidised or free tokens, to making its platform shittier for consumers to attract businesses.
I wonder how long it will be before any home renovation question on Gemini turns up a bunch of products from Bunnings?
"Bunnings is set to be one of the first Australian retailers to sell to customers through Google AI Mode, with the capability to be switched on in the next fortnight.
...
"Retailers generally have spent this year establishing a presence in large language models and the chat interfaces that enable easy user access and interaction.
"The imminent launch of shopping through Google AI Mode opens a new front in that trend."

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.

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??

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

#Bunnings Windsor Gardens has a lot to learn about customer service..
This morning, american accent girl "serving" couldn't even be bothered to acknowledge existence:
Me: "Hello"
Her: "Flybuys?" [Turns back to her coworker and continues chatting with him]
Me: "No, Hello..."
Her: "Cash or Card?" [Turns back to her coworker and continues chatting with him]
Me: "Card"
Her: [Shoves card reader towards me while continuing chatting with her coworker]
Her: [Hands receipt to me while continuing chatting with her coworker]
I don't care if your worker has the "major hots" for the guy working next to her, when you're serving a customer acknowledge and serve them.
Georgie-boy not happy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYMkEPgsSGQ

Nice one #Bunnings I put an order in this evening for 7 items to be delivered, completed the paypal checkout like usual and the bunnings page displays "error" right after, so now it seems the payment has come out of my account but bunnings system has no record of the sale as their database "chucked a spaz" right when my payment was going through.. Lucrative little error that one, free cash for the corporation without having to supply the goods as their account accepts my payment happily while saying "what sale?"...
Needless to say I'll be following up till I get every dollar back.
Why do this to customers? Hire someone who knows how to code a back-end properly FFS. 😡

Hammer barn survivor; I’m assuming the panels were painted with a roller before assembly?? #weirdcarmastodon #landrover #bunnings

I'll say this for #Bunnings #Parafield, they knew I had a bad back and offered to come collect the defective cooler to take back, they came 30mins ago & collected it from me in 39c heat, and sent me a full refund just now.
Much gratitude.

Bunnings: Click 5L Portable Evaporative Cooler (CLL04JR)
DONT even go there.. 👎👎👎
Doesn't cool at all even in optimal humidity range & following the instructions to the letter. It's a $109 high-watt fan basically.
You'd be far better off spending $19 for a kmart box fan (which has a bigger fan & uses 40 less watts) and a misting spray bottle to spray yourself with every once in a while.
So if you were thinking of getting one of these for summer, just don't.
