When prominent brands announce a sale, people often go all-out to make sure they don't miss the chance to score a deal. However, one man was sorely disappointed after missing an affordable sale on unique pairs of footwear and roasted the brand online in a hilarious post.
Missing out big time
TikTok user Thulane, who states his account (@thulanegwebu) is all about "banter, jokes, and everything in between" uploaded a video sharing how he wanted to cash in on the amazing deal Crocs had to offer.
On 23 October, as part of their birthday celebration, the footwear brand offered a limited pair of shoes for an affordable R22. Fortunately for those who missed out the first time, Crocs shared the offer again on 31 October.

Clearly having missed out on the deal, Thulane said in his post:
"Count your days. It's coming, babes. You will crumble. Firstly, you shouldn't be selling plastic shoes for R800, but to have me wake up super early to clock in for that R22 special, and three seconds later, you're claiming it's sold out.
"I was probably one of the first people who logged in. You played me, and I let you. Fool me once, shame on you."

"Crocs has officially become a weapon formed against us."

"They played me twice."
Mzansi reacts to Edgars' previous boots sale
Earlier this year, Briefly News reported on a video of a local woman sharing a past Edgars winter boots sale.
The woman showed a variety of styles with price tags on some of the boots, showing that they cost R500 for two pairs, which was highly interesting to a few social media users.
