Social media users could not decide whether Woolies was affordable or not and created a thread of opposing comments:
@Olwethu. M explained:
“Exactly! Woolworths is not half as bad as they make it out to be. The real danger is Spar and Pick n Pay. They’re so expensive for no reason.”
@Banana shared:
“Inexpensive? At Makro, that 500 would get you double what you got.”
@Faith Ramabopo decided:
“Snacks should include the cake.”
@Lala Kethobile 🇧🇼 asked:
“You call this cheap?”
@comments620 commented:
“R500 for me should buy food that will last for the month, like eggs, meat, veggies, and cleaning stuff, not sweets.”
