After shoppers discovered the pockets were used to display team member’s name tag, the worker said there was another hidden purpose for the clear pouches.
She claimed there’s a second “secret compartment” in the pocket that holds a small notepad which is unique to each Bunnings store.
“Name badge yes, however we have a notepad for every store,” she said in the video.
In the footage, you can see the Bunnings team member pull out the green notepad from the hidden compartment.
She added: “I’ve worked in probably eight Bunnings stores in my eight years, and I’ve always gotten one.”
Bunnings fans have been in a spin over the easy-to-miss detail after Australian comedian Luke Donkin raised the issue in a recent viral TikTok post last month.
“I honestly have no idea what this pocket is used for,” he said.
“I’ve always wanted to put like a trail mix in it and then just (motions to eat it) throughout the day. But I’d probably get in trouble.”
At the time, it was confirmed that the clear pouch was used to hold the staff member’s name tag.
But just when you think you may know all there is to know about the pockets on the front of Bunnings staff aprons, there appears to be yet another twist.
While another worker pointed out there’s yet another secret compartment.
“My apron has three pockets there… you showed two,” they said.
