Prices from Woolworths, Shoprite, Checkers, Pick n Pay

The Springboks take on Portugal this weekend. If you can’t make it to Bloemfontein, why not stay home and braai …

Sadly, the prices of braai essentials, from charcoal to boerewors to your favourite beverage, have sky-rocketed in recent months.

The South African website is seeking to help enrich the lives of our readers because why should you be paying higher prices at one retailer when you can save a little somewhere else?

We’ve got you covered with the latest in our series of braai basket price comparisons between four of South Africa’s favourite supermarkets – Woolworths, Checkers, Shoprite and Pick n Pay.

Each week we visit the supermarkets so you don’t waste your time, effort – and most importantly, money.
