Netizens love the grocery gift idea

People in the comment section could not help but share how great they found the gift-giving concept in the viral video.

@prudy_tiny said to the online community:

"I don't care who says what. These are the women we need. I need friends like this."

@glance301 thought it was a beautiful gesture but asked:

"What will she do with 18l of cooking oil? 750ml of olive oil lasts me almost two months."

@dimakatsomotjelele replied to the message:

These are non-perishable goods. She doesn’t have to consume them all at once. Instead of buying everything every month, she will buy meat, veggies, etc."

@ms.ziyanda loved the concept and said:

"This is actually smart."
