Bunnings is NOT cheap for a lot of their products (not to mention quality issues), so I always look elsewhere first. I also see OfficeWorks mentioned in this thread - I find them expensive for MOST things and so will never support their monopoly intentions by using their price matching - it just gives them a way to easily monitor their competitors prices and put them out of business.
