After seeing the video, social media users did not hesitate to share their thoughts on the lady's comment feed. Many roasted Woolies, while others said it was time to support fruit and vegetable street vendors.

User @noth said:

"Woollies is totally out of control - most of the fruit isn’t even ripe or has no taste."

User @Cathy Ann commented:

"That will rot in the store!"

User @Amir Hoosain joked:

"Woolworths is getting thru supplies from Garden of Eden 😬."

User @MaNgcobo said:

"These are imported. Local mangoes aren't going to be ready for harvest for at least another month."

User @DanieT commented:

"With that price, the mangoes must come with a passport

In another Briefly News article, a woman shared a video explaining her confusion over the price of Woolies's sausage, which R20 marks down per kilo.

The lady saw the R109 per kilo price and assumed that each tray was retailing for that amount, not checking how many kilos her sausage was.
