Keith Dodgen, a Johannesburg-based content creator and IT student, left supermarket staff completely baffled after secretly hiding his bank card inside a loaf of bread and using it to pay for his groceries at Frontline Hyper.

The prank showed him casually opening a packet of bread in the store, slipping his bank card between two slices, and then heading straight to the till. He placed two loaves on the counter and let the cashier scan them without suspecting a thing.

When she gave him his total, he asked whether she accepted "bread pay" as a payment method. She looked confused. He then picked up the loaf hiding his card and tapped it against the card machine. The payment went through instantly.

Cashier calls in backup

The cashier stood frozen, unable to make sense of what had just happened. With no explanation for how a loaf of bread had settled a bill, she called her supervisor over. The supervisor was equally stumped and suggested getting the manager involved to find out whether "bread pay" was something they had ever heard of.

Watch the bread pay prank that left Frontline Hyper staff speechless here.
