A recent TikTok video has captured the attention of bargain hunters and food lovers across South Africa after a woman showcased a baked goods bundle she purchased online for less than R40.
Posted by TikTok user @stillgoodza, the clip reveals what she received in the baked value bag, sourced from SUPERSPAR Florida Junction in Gauteng. Though she bought it online through a food-saving platform, the items come from SPAR.
The bag included a slice of bright rainbow cake, plain bread rolls, flavoured rolls, and cupcakes, all packed tightly into a single bag of baked goodness. The treats were purchased via stillgood.co.za, an online platform dedicated to reducing food waste while making affordable, high-quality products accessible to everyone. The website partners with major retailers to offer surplus or short-dated items at discounted prices, helping South Africans stretch their budgets without compromising on quality.

Still Good Za highlights surplus food savings and delicious treats
Online viewers were amazed at the quantity and quality of the items in the R40 pack. With the price of everyday essentials rising steadily, seeing so many bakery favourites in one affordable package struck a chord with many South Africans.
These bags, often referred to as value bags or part of the 'Still Good' initiative, highlight an important shift in how supermarkets handle surplus food. Instead of discarding items that are still perfectly edible, stores are now finding practical ways to pass on savings to customers.
While the bag was specifically from the Florida Junction SUPERSPAR, many are now hoping this initiative will spread to other locations.
