To 'please' an internet user, a local woman went to Shoprite to buy groceries. This was after she had joked about spending R12 000 at another store.

Briefly News previously reported about a woman named Tshanduko Charlotte Phuluwa who went to Makro to buy her groceries. For a laugh, she said she spent the made-up amount, but she only paid R1 909.90.

This video made many people think that Tshanduko had spent R12 000 and had missed the joke. A TikTokker commented on the video and said:

The items included eggs, meat, cooldrink, sugar, canned food, chips, milk, rice and more for R1 300.

The woman said in her new video:

"So yes, ma'am. I honoured your request, Your Highness. I went to Shoprite with my money to make you happy. I hope this is socially acceptable because people also complained about the brands I bought. I hope you're happy now."
