All theft related costs are divided and added to the product. So the person at the door represents savings to you. What harm is it to say 'G'DAY'

Be nice and smile. Saves stress and you may live longer.
Well i must say that since starting this thread, the replies have been very theraputic for me. I now walk in and say g'day.
Thanks, where do i send the bill to?

hey finally one of them bunnies door people actually used there common sense!!!! The cold weather must really be affecting people here in canberra!! :eek:
As usually these day's the guy at the door requested to see the reciept, as usualy i said its in my wallet you don't really expect me to drop this box to get my wallet out...no sir its fine i saw you come through the checkout just then so your fine mate enjoy the rest of the day!!!! :confused:
I'll be buggered!! I thought it would never happen to me... ;)
You were bound to get 'lucky' sooner or later, and it also explains why you're walking funny ;) :pQuote:

But he did unwrap it for me.
Actually, the shop was much smaller than Bunnings, but had a good range of hardware and trade tools. It also sold food and had a beer vending machine out the front. Does that make sense or what!
Bought the saw plus a chisel.
At Bunnings here in WA (well the three that I frequent) the person at the checkout near the exit doors will stamp the docket, so that the person at the door doesn't have to.
They must have higher entry standards here in Perth!
That makes no sense at all. What's the point of the checkout person stamping it? They gave it to you! :rolleyes:
Yeah - but what did you say to the Sayonara person on the door? (The beer vending machine sounds like a good idea!). :DQuote:

For a while, the Cairns store had a dead set 'tool calender girl' on the door...
you know the one.... big blonde, big smile, big hooters, in big work boots.
They made her wear a red T shirt & she had to zip up her denim shorts but....
in the end, they had to get rid of her 'cos all the dirty old men would go
down to bunnies & just walk in & out all day just to have her smile at them.
I prob'ly only go there once a week now.... :rolleyes: (just in case she come back :D )
Must be different rules for different stores. In Tamworth NSW the girl at the front door just says hello and goodbye because she stands right at the front of the registers and can see every one coming out from the registers.
At the back or trade door they have a guy that checks every thing on your vehicle against the docket before he will open the boom gate to let you out.
Pretty much the same in Cranbourne.
Havent been to bunnies for a couple of weeks so dont know if things have changed but never been stopped or had my receipt stamped or whatever. (QLD) Bris.
If there is anyone at the entrance and they say "g'day" I just say "gday" back. I do the same on the way out. It would be a rather brave person to stop me on the way out clutching my goodies and a receipt after just leaving the register.
Anyway it doesnt hurt to be civil to them. They are just doing what they get paid for and if it helps to stop lowdown shoplifters, good.
