Under the new advertising campaign, commercials focussed on store prices being checked 'twice daily', and slogans such as 'we buy in bulk, so you get the lowest prices' were used. Officeworks changed its slogan in August 2012 to 'Big Ideas. In 2011 Officeworks cut ties with paper supplier APRIL over claims that the paper supplier was illegally logging Indonesian forests. Officeworks also adopted the 'Lowest Price Guarantee' similar to that found at Bunnings, where Officeworks offered to beat any competitor's price of an identical item by 5%.
