Bunnings Warehouse has restocked its viral $1 mini buckets, which became a must-have item in 2025 after selling out quickly. The miniature pails, with a 600ml capacity, are a smaller version of the store's popular 10L and 20L buckets, which retail for $4.99 and $8.99 respectively.
Shoppers have praised the buckets for their versatility, using them as desk organisers, for craft supplies, small gardening jobs, or even as bath toys for children. The buckets are made from food-grade plastic with a sturdy metal handle featuring a plastic grip.
Announcing the restock on social media, Bunnings sparked excitement among fans. One shopper wrote, 'My kids who are 2 and 7 love Bunnings trips 😂 getting them one each!!' Another commented, 'I got one of these buckets today, they’re so cute.'
Despite the enthusiasm, many customers expressed a desire for lids. One user suggested, 'You guys should make mini lids for them,' while others echoed, 'If only they had lids.' Some Aussies have already found creative uses, such as making frozen cocktails, as shown in a TikTok video by user ohsobusymum_.
