Fruit & Veg

Anyone go to FruitnVeg City at all? Their website has no prices and I have heard good things about the place...

Fruit & Veg in Elarduspark have become VERY expensive and their stuff gets bad overnight.

Most of the fruit and veg is expensive. Especially their meat.

I see...It seems they have changed their focus considerably from when they first arrived on the scene then. Pity.

Anyone got any bargains to report before the weekend shop?

Which is of a very low standard lately IMO.

That is surprising. I wonder what sector of the market they are actually trying to target now.

That is cheap. What brand are they? I hear the cheaper brands do not last as long as the better ones...

That is very cheap then. The 14W ones equate to 75W...They are normally closer to R30 each.

Anyone know of any other specials at Makro? There are often ones that are not on the website...

I am shocked.

Ricoffy jumped to R50.00+/750g tin. Paid R41.00 a fortnight ago
Sugar jumped to R19.99/2.5kg bag like overnight? Was R15.00 a week ago.

PickNPay have been running a special on that sugar- forgot to mention it. It has been R4.50 off for a while now...Also around R15/bag

Got bio classic (triple action/triple concentrated) 9kg for r199 at makro today.

That seems reasonable I paid R139.99/5kg recently on a "special". At some stores the same 5KG was R152.00. Need to drop in at Macro tommorow on my round trip it seems.

Thanks. Hope it will be the same price.

I spend a substantial portion of my paycheck just on groceries. And I don't even eat luxuriously. Simple stuff. Can't remember when last I bought myself steak.

Which is why I thought this thread would be a good idea
