By Rachael Gavin|
T?he high cost of dishwasher tablets has been a hot topic during the cost of living crisis, with big name brand products being spotted in supermarkets for as much as $70.
But one woman has reminded us of the importance of shopping around for bargains after finding a bulk pack of dishwasher tablets for a bargain price at an unlikely store.
Liv spotted the 77 pack of Finish quantum all-in-one for $24.95 at her local Bunnings and posted about the find in a TikTok video on her YouPay app channel.

"I said Chemist Warehouse was a really cheap place to get your cleaning essentials, but check out Bunnings first because they had the tablets there again today and I'm going to show you how good the prices are," she said.
She then revealed a photo of the Finish dishwasher tablets in store with a sign listing them for $24.95 for a pack of 77.? This means each tablet is about 32 cents, which is much cheaper than similar products in supermarkets.
"This changes the game," she added in a caption on the clip.?
While Coles and Woolworths don't seem to have the quantum version of dishwasher tablets, they do have a similar product with the Finish ultimate all-in one?.
At Woolworths a 72 pack of Finish ultimate all-in-one costs $42 or 58 cents each, while a 100 pack of the same product is currently $47 or 47 cents each.
Over at Coles, a 50 pack of Finish ultimate all-in-one dishwasher tablets costs $33 or 66 cents each, while the 100 pack is $47 or 47 cents each.
Bunnings confirmed to 9Honey Living that the 77 pack of Finish quantum all-in-one? is still available for $24.95, though stock is limited but more is coming soon. A spokesperson encouraged shoppers to check online or ask at their local store to check whether stock is available.
The store also sells a 112 pack of Finish all-in-one dishwashing tablets for $42.99?, which is about 38 cents each.
