One of South Africa's most authoritative and respected consumer journalists, Wendy Knowler, confirmed that Woolworths has given some of their customers a “Black Friday discount” on their debt… but still SA can’t believe it.
Nothing comes for free these days, there is always a catch. So, when people heard that there was a “Black Friday discount” on their debt from Woolworths, they laughed.
Knowler took to Twitter to share the news with her followers, explaining that one man got offered 80% off of his R124k debt with Woolworths.
