Hardware stores have been enjoying great popularity since the pandemic at the latest, and Germans have discovered their passion for handicrafts.
Hornbach now has a special accessory on offer.
Bornheim - DIY stores like Hornbach, Obi, Toom and Co. really have everything a craftsman's heart desires.
From painting utensils and bathroom accessories to gardening supplies - everyone can find what they are looking for here.
A lot of time can be wasted in the long corridors and every now and then you come across strange surprises.
This is what happened to a Twitter user who posted his funny discovery on the platform.
The Hornbach employees at this branch had a lot of fun - especially aimed at male customers.
Hornbach: men's handbag for 99 cents
This can be seen on the uploaded photo: A typical hardware store shelf with a sign in the unmistakable Hornbach orange.
The sign reads: "Men's handbag - 12 liters - € 0.99 per piece".
On the shelf behind, however, there are not fabric bags or the like, but: Large black buckets with a metal handle.
The Hornbach employees write on the sign: “Ask your wife what it cost her.” There is definitely no lack of space, as is usually the case in handbags, with a capacity of twelve liters.
Hornbach handbag creates enthusiasm
Other Twitter users are delighted with the post and write enthusiastic comments.
One says: "I think I'll go get one, chic".
Another humorously comments: “I have 5 of them, but I'm still looking for one in gray (for everyday use).” Whether you mean it seriously or not - with this campaign, the employees of the Hornbach-Markt surely put a smile on the lips of some customers or catered for one or the other discussion in the nearest pocket shop.
Another hardware store utensil also caused amusement on Twitter - but it was about past relationships.
