 Social media users lost it after a Mzansi lady showed off her Stanley Cup and trended:

@geebaybe1045 shared:

“I bought mine for R150; the exchange rate was good at the time. I got the limited edition of the Stanley and Starbucks one.”

@Noxolo Jeku explained:

“If there’s one thing I love about the market, is that it has targets. A product will cost R1200, but a different outlet will notice that there’s a market of people willing to pay R200 for it. And here we are.”

@𝑻.𝑺 commented:

“I got mine for R87.”
