Woolworths takes a hit

Consumers in South Africa have been forced to be stricter with their budgets amid high interest rates and elevated cost of living.

@SeRpEnT see what you did to Woolworths. Your wife was the only one keeping Woolies afloat.

Locally Food Lover's are growing quite a bit and I expect them to do some serious damage to Woolies.
Their prices are infinitely better for just about everything and the quality is quite good.

Even the local small supermarket's quality is better than Foodlovers. I only go there in an emergency.

The way they keep on increasing prices, I am not surprised. Checkers 60/60 is mangling them as well.

And their (Checkers) new Superstores.

Small supermarkets often have better quality fruit than WW in KZN.
