    The cheapest beef burger in South Africa – Steers vs Spur vs McDonald’s vs Wimpy vs RocoMamas

    They should consider which burger actually contains "beef". While technically semantically most of those burgers contains "beef", it is actually trimmings, aka conveyor scrapings. The standard ratio is 80/20 trimmings/fat. That is also where the legal compliance ends as far as ZA is concerned...

    How your bank can stop you from using your car

    I think the point here is: that people think that when they buy things on credit that they have ownership of those items.

    Butter or Margarine?

    Eskom's price hike application factored in excessive diesel expenditure

    We were always going to pay for the electrics we did not use, which Eskom did not make anyway. We have to keep the trough full so the Kings can eat.

    Man detained in apparent assassination attempt on Trump criticized former president on social media

    They really want him dead. So far they managed to push a few un-professionals into action: 2 x gunmen and a couple of people trying to attack him on stage so far. I don't think it is going to stop here. I think they will step up and go pro next time.

    Bakkie

    As always age and kms count first. Next is running costs, and repairs. And I had the same situation and need as you. I got a decent Mahindra, low age, low kms. I paid a lot less (R100k) than I would have for a similar Ford/Toyota/Isuzu/etc. Initial repairs, tires and services were on par with...
