This savvy shopper's secret will help you get your hands on this popular item for less!

For anyone who hasn't been following the recent craze, Bunnings has been selling off some of its stock at heavily discounted prices. And one lucky Facebook user recently managed to snag herself a bargain.

The savvy shopper took to Facebook to share her haul of marked-down items.



'Oh my gosh! I got some boards! Been chasing them for a while,' the woman wrote along with a photo of the boards.

The customer went on to say that the boards were originally priced at $10, but she managed to get them marked down to just $1 after showing the trading desk some posts from other people who had gotten them for less.

'$400 down to $40!' she exclaimed, explaining that she nabbed 40 pieces of the item.

The woman's post has since captured the attention of other group members, with other people commenting on their own experiences of trying to get their hands on the discounted boards.

One user shared: 'Nice score! I bought one of these & the bigger pine one for a grazing table in April. The price back then was pretty good I thought until you posted this.'

One person said they'd never seen them for less than $2.50, while another said they'd missed out because somebody else had already filled their trolley.



'Great score! I’ve never seen them for less than $2.50 and I’m actually really surprised this store marked them down this much,' one comment read.

Another added: 'Just went to my Bunnings to grab some and the lady in front of me had a trolley full and I missed out.'

For those who are wondering what other people do with these wooden boards, the item is popular among crafters who carve sayings or cover them with resin.



This is not the first time shoppers were sent into a frenzy after a retailer marked down this product. You can read more about it here.

The original poster also shared where she will be using them after one person asked her about their utility.

She shared: 'I will be wood burning most of them. I’m in a cricut group. It’s a vinyl cutting machine.'

'Most of them will be used for my wedding as well.'



Others said that they modify it for other purposes.

One person suggested: 'They make great cheese boards with epoxy resin.'

'I painted mine to match my furniture. Hubby added the legs,' another woman added, showing a picture of her family's craft project.

Wooden boards are great for crafts because they are sturdy and can be cut to size. Here are some ideas for projects you can make with wooden boards.

1. A simple frame. You can make a frame for a mirror or picture using wooden boards. Just cut the boards to size and use a drill to make holes for screws. Attach the boards together with screws and then add your mirror or picture.

2. A jewellery holder. Cut a wooden board into a square or rectangle. Use a drill to make two holes near the top of the board. String a piece of twine or ribbon through the holes and hang it on the wall. You can use the board to hang necklaces, bracelets, and other pieces of jewellery.



3. A key holder. Cut a wooden board into a rectangle or square. Paint the board with your favourite colour or design. Drill two holes near the top of the board. String a piece of twine or ribbon through the holes and hang it on the wall. You can use the board to hang your keys.

4. A bulletin board. Cut a wooden board into a rectangle or square. Cover the board with cork board or fabric. Use push pins to attach memos, pictures, and other items to the board.

5. A coat rack. Cut a wooden board into a rectangle or square. Paint the board with your favourite colour or design. Drill holes evenly spaced across the top of the board. Screw in hooks to the holes. Hang the board on the wall and use it to hang coats, scarves, and hats.



These are just a few ideas for projects you can make with wooden boards. But, of course, you can always come up with good ideas, just be creative!

So if you're in the market for some cheap boards, it might be worth heading down to your local Bunnings. But be quick, because they're sure to be snapped up fast.

Being as they are round, you could always repurpose them as tooits.
 
A Round Tuit
This is a Tuit, guard it with your life,
as Tuits are hard to come by,
especially the round ones.
This is an indispensable item.
It will help you become a more efficient worker.
For years, we have heard people say,
" I'll do it as soon as I get a round Tuit!"
Now that you have one, you can accomplish all those things you put aside until you got
a round Tuit.

I'd possibly go to Bunnings if l knew these were on special &, like all these specials whether food or otherwise, they wouldn't all be snatched up by a greedy shopper.
