Pick n Pay vs Checkers
A video shared on TikTok video by @queenofplugss shows her comparing similar grocery items found on the Pick 'n Pay ASAP app versus the Checkers Sixty60 app
In her post, @queenofplugss discloses that she had recently bought some groceries online from Pick 'n Pay and after sharing a haul of her items on her TikTok, a lot of people commented that Woolworths and Checkers were cheaper.
So she put the theory and placed the similar items she bought from Pick 'n Pay into her Checkers Sixty60 online cart - and indeed the Checkers had a lower total of R596 versus what she paid at Pick 'n Pay, R735.
