    They'd make good kitchen scraps rubbish bags tbh

    • +33

      Not when you can get them free at colesworth

      • +12

        JV asked me to ask you where the bargain is

        • +14

          If JV asked it should been a bolder statement…. :P

        Lucky if one bag makes it home from shopping without a hole ripped in it. Supermarket bags are so flimsy now.

        At least these bags won't have holes in them.

        • I double bag …… means the bag makes it home and I have twice as many to use as garbage bags.

        • @garage sale:
          I always triple bag now. If you have some fluid in the bin then two nags don't cut it

        • +1

          @MountFranklin:
          That sounds like something I'd read on Urban Dictionary.

      • No if your in Tasmania, which if you want a bag its going to cost you 15c a bag!

        • +5

          @Nukkels: this is $5 for a box of bags, usually there's like 300-400 in a sealed box..

        • I'm in Vic and bags are free ….. so what happens at the self service checkout ……. someone counts how many bags you use and adds to final bill, or the are no self service checkouts at coles and safeway ?

        • +1

          @garage sale:
          In Tassie, the semi-transparent thin black plastic bags aren't available at all at the checkouts. The only option is the thick white bags, and you choose how many you need & then pay for them at the self-service checkout.

        • @garage sale:

          The bags have barcodes

    • +3

      Don't buy them. Just go through the self-serve checkouts and double bag your stuff. I have a good 50-60 bags accumulated from them alone. I also have a crap-load of 10 and 20 cent pieces too….

      • +34

        Yeah, but the free box…

        • +1

          Hmm, but what about the nostalgia. Now that DSE will only exist in the online presence, these bags will be valuable/sentimental.

          Think of the profits from flogging these on eBay.

        • +2

          @OptimisticPessimist: The online presence will be operated by Kogan.

          The only flogging that will be happening will be a public one for having anything to do with those clowns.

        • I am sure there are people out there who would pay money for some Brashs bags… to carry their vinyl down to their favourite freegan cafe

        • @OptimisticPessimist: In my last move I found a Brashs bag… should have flogged it eh?

        • +1

          @lainey13: Should of framed it, then flogged it for 10x the cost of the frame. You'd be rich Biyatch!!

      • lol which store was that?

        • They didn't say, seems to be a store that closed on the weekend though.

          (I'm not actually associated with ds btw, I checked the box for April fools and can't change it back lol)

          @4892: Edit: fixed

      • +5

        how much was the seagull?

      • +1

        poor thing must be dam tired flying around with no drafts and nowhere to land

  • +23

    At least they still have some humour

    • +9

      Let's see if they'll try and sell that too

  • Wow, just wow!

  • +35

    How many?
    Jv said he wants to know how much they normally are

    • +1

      You for the bold text.

    • Lol at your username when you mention JV, wink wink……

    • +4

      Well its not really a deal is it? They use to be free with any purchase? :)

  • How many bags?

  • +9

    LOL

    How much for the sign?

  • -1

    how many in a box ?

    • +5

      As much as you can squeeze in. Depends on how tight the box is. Moist.

  • Good one :)

  • +10

    Blacktown has been using nextdoor's Daiso bags since this whole collapse thing started lol

  • Greedy management at this store. They have hundreds of phone cases left. $3 each. Other stores? $2. Now this. They'd sell a kitchen sink if they had one!

    • Discount is based on the stores closure date.

      Greed however is certainly the overarching reason for all this though.

      • It's this weekend. They're gonna be left with a LOT of cases.

        • All dicks suck. Don't get worked up. There's a reason the business failed miserably.

        • how many phones do you have that you need cases for that the trip to dicksmith is easier than ordering one from eBay and its delivered to the front door.

          I always get my phone cases from eBay.

    • Kitchen sink for sale at Nambour DSE, 80% off, now only $600

      • Sounds like DSE inflated pricing to me. So original pricing for a sink was $3,000?

    • +1

      Good on them I say. And I hope the $5 goes in their pocket not through the register. Make money on whatever they can.

  • +5

    Would you like a bag with that?

  • +2

    What would anybody do with a box of dick bags?

  • -1

    $5 for some negative externalities, sweeeeeet

  • Thevgreedy buch took the money and absconded
    Now all left are poor employees and creditors

    • +3

      Who you calling a buch?

      You're a buch! Goddamn buch!

  • +1

    It's true. Buying a box of dick bags will stop your Mrs from getting pregnant. Or at least it won't be your child.

  • +5

    hehe…..dick in a box

  • I'd go tomorrow but I'm sure someone has already brodened my local store.

  • +1

    Here I was thinking they'd be used by the employees once the doors closed

  • +3

    They aren't joking when saying everything must go :D

  • -2

    $5 to buy pollution nice…

    • They're already plastic waste. If they sell them then they might serve a useful purpose.

  • -3

    I just bought 10,000 boxes. Out of stock.

  • I should go and buy shelves for my shed…

    • +6

      Over priced imo. Hold off for a little longer.

      • Yep wait until the last day, they'll take any offer.

  • Perfect for picking up doggy poop

    • Hmm… Dick(bags) covered with poop…dog poop.. Charming!

    • These bags would be a bit too big for dog poop. Why not just get some free black poop bags from your local park? The council provides them.

      • Not every area has free bags, depends on your area.

        • can confirm, our council is useless

  • +3

    These are given away free when you buy something. How is this a deal?

    • +4

      You get given a box of bags every time you buy something?

  • +1

    are they biodegradable? ;)

    • All the ones I've seen are ;)

      • +5

        even dse became biodegradable :(

        • +4

          or insolvent, that's a term in nature…right?…. :P

        • +1

          @Forfiet: yea but you can add artificial stuff in to make it last longer

  • +12

    They are selling old used 15" monitors that were for their own computers for $200. What a steal!

        Pretty sure smegma was being sarcastic

        • +1

          I'm not kidding. I took a photo. I remembered wrong it was listed at $125 not $200, but still close enough for a piece of junk with almost nothing.

          @The Land of Smeg:

          Looks like they forgot a decimal somewhere in that price tag.

        • @The Land of Smeg:
          hahaha sarcastic as in what a steal and WTF when I put your name Smeg into my phone it auto corrected to Smegma.

        • @The Land of Smeg:

          I think the funniest part of that is some retail jockey got a title bump to "fixtures manager"…that should help their resume I guess

        • @Japius: 16 year old kid is fixtures manager.

        • Didn't detect it. I work in IT and you would be surprised how many people would think this is indeed a good price.

        • @The Land of Smeg:

          Pretty good deal, you could sell them on ebay for around $15 each and pocket negative $110 profit!

      I've seen that. What moron administrators they have.

    $5 for a dick in a box?
    Beats a jack in a box
    :^)

  • 2,000 bags in a box

    • 2000 chances of a dick bag breaking.

  • Its a trick. When you open the box, a midget dressed in a karate uniform pops out and punches you in the crotch.

    • You remind me of Mr Ciao from the hangover movies

  • +2

    Can this be used for toilet paper?
