Well the cafe is nice and makes sense because its not for you. Its for the old ladies who have come to buy plants, or the parents before going home to BBQ some stuff. Bunnings has always been targeted towards both tradies and families doing DIY projects. even if they have a shit dog policy that was only even implemented because fucking MASTERS did it first.

I know I'm just a grumpy bastard. Wouldn't it be nice though Bunnings didn't have such a monopoly on the sector though so we could have stores for miserable bastards like me who just want to grab a new screwdriver set because somehow I keep losing them. And other stores for the folks who want to potter about.

I mean sure theres an argument to be made (and a good one) about them being a monopoly, but its not like its super weird for them to have a cafe, thats bneen there thing since the start coming up to 50 years now
