Hi guys, just found something strange with an item at Bunnings and don't know what's going on.

My partner was shopping, and I told her to buy a Belkin surge protector… the nearest shop was JB. I looked online and found this protector was $49.95 in JB but was only $36.70 in Bunnings.

I sent her the link and she went into JB, showed them the link and bought the item.

However, I had a bank notification of $40.76 paid to JB. I asked my partner if they wouldn't price match it fully and she said they did…. she then sent me a screen shot of the item when she clicks the link and on her phone the item comes up at $40.76…. but when I click the link it comes up as $36.70.

Wondering if it is the same for others? And if anyone knows what's happening?

  just changed the store locations to a couple random ones (i think metro locations):

  Collingwood, VIC: $36.70
  Rozelle, NSW: $40.76
  Newstead, QLD: $40.76
  Homebase Subiaco, WA: $40.76

  looks like for some reason it's cheaper to get online or in Victoria than in store in other states.

  edit - I just checked Ballarat, VIC and it's $40.76 there too, so it seems store-dependent

  Weird… i guess that makes sense as i have my store set to our local but my partner would just have it set to the default store in WA.

  I didn't even know store specific was a thing in bunnings… is it common knowledge? (I'm a pom)

    My condolences.

    I think state specific pricing in bunnings is pretty common unfortunately. I got caught out on an aircon.
