Hello guys, kindly subscribe and like the video. Thank you all.
Food prices are almost the same everywhere, the only difference is what shop you use (eg Checkers or Woolworths). So Woolworths in Soweto costs about the same as the one in Sandton.
Just discovered your channel today,but I'm hooked.Welcome to SA hope you enjoy your stay and keep safe bro!
Thank you and welcome onboard.
One thing I LOVED about Woolworths is the way that employees will stop what they are doing and walk you exactly to what you are looking for. At one point, we had three people helping us find Parmesan cheese!! One lady pushed our cart helping us find gluten free items!
All the shops do that
@@marleneclough3173 must have gone to the wrong Checkers and Spar.
Of course because they think you came to steal, I know theire mentallity
@@user-qt4gx5fx9e nah, I’m a Black American so I know what that feels like. This was genuine each time I went to a Woolworths.
Enjoy your stay in South Africa
Thank you.
I want to visit South Africa ❤
And there's Clicks Stores for your cosmetics and toiletries which is very affordable,compare to Woolworths...
Thanks you so much for your new remarkable video yesterday’s from Johannesburg, South Africa to shows some amazing places in Southern Africa 2024❤❤❤
Keep safe dude
I enjoyed your video as always! Thanks for uploading!
For clarification, we have different modes of transportation. We have Ubers/bolt, we have airplanes, trains. Sandton is starting to get flooded by small rickshaw type of vehicles and you get the minibus taxis which are found everywhere in the country but are mostly used by middle-lower class people.
We have regular big city buses too. In Joburg you have the Rea vaya alongside the Gautrain bus. The issue is that buses have limited stops compared to Minibus taxis which literally go all over the city. Our train system is not the best because of the poor leadership and our only luxury/bullet train situated in Gauteng (where you currently are) only goes to a few places as well.
Thanks for this informative vlog, Tyme
Stay safe, be careful of phone snatchers.
Hi there please don't forget to let Europeans know that prices you see on isles are exactly what you are going to pay nothing will be added when you reach the counter
Mate sorry your idea is good and well, we don't say "Rands" its called "RAND". Twenty Rand, Fifty Rand, and a Hundred RAND. Thanks for your movie. Enjoy our beautiful country. I, myself are out of the country currently.
It's the same as US dollar but when it's plural Americans and many other will add an "s" which is more than one it's a western culture thing even though Africa says Rand no matter the amount. Kinda of like Africans saying " eeh" or Canadian saying " A" is a culture thing.
i go next year to jo,burg.
I am Thankful for your videos and appreciate you taking us shopping
Thank you.
Woolies is more expensive than Checkers but they have better quality sometimes.
amazing content Tyme 😊 keep showing us around
Thank you.
Great vlog today 👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿

In woolies, prices are on items. Especially fruits, veges, bakery and butcher side.
Tyme my guy it really depend on the stores,,we got pick n pay & Checkers & Spar those are cheaper than Woolies... You are in the upper class so the price is been fix on that.. Even your staycation it's more compering to the other side of Joburg.. just know this things..& know coast of living in Joburg is cheaper than Cape Town..❤❤
Woolworths is cheaper than Spar and Checkers for that matter
Compared to other African countries like Kenya, SA is a bit more expensive but a bit cheaper than in continental Europe.
Wine and grapes are really cheap but that's their big local business.
Grapes have never been cheap in any store in South Africa unless you are buying them at the gate of the farm.
Things are expensive now in South Africa 🇿🇦, before Covid the prices was ok , now we are struggling.
Don't expect prices to go down.. Prices are sky high worldwide.. Inflation will be a tough thing to hold back in the coming years.
People has always strugled after 1994. COVID-19 was just a helping piont.
R500 buy 2 save R10 ended me 😅😅
🎯🤭
50 Rands not 500
Not true😂
3:18 Definitely not R500 but R50
😅😅😅😅
Exactly
There is a Para behind you. You so brave Maan neeeeee
There's CHECKERS, pick &pay ,Spar that's way cheaper than Woolworths
Woolworths in sandton! Prices are no joke!
Hi Thyme welkom to SA,Cape Town is a bit cheaper then Joburg.And it's where you shop.Woolies is very expensive then Checkers and Pick n Pay.ISome will say Quality,Pick n pay n Checkers is also quality food.Woolies is prepack Checkers n Pick n Pay prepare they own food So is your choice.
Cape Town cheaper than Joburg?
Don't lie 😅😂
You need to come to Cape Town, it's beautiful, bro!
Enjoy your time in South Africa 👏
I definitely will on my next visit.
Food in South Africa is very very cheap
You can enjoy a sumptuous breakfast for $6 usd in a franchise restaurant
You can purchase groceries for a week with 10 Usd
Are you sure?
Woolies is the best in terms of quality
whatttttttt!!!!! are these prices . the currency rate ,must be off because you are telling me bread ,and eggs are over $30 USD each ??? that's crazy
Definitely double the prices compared to other places/cities in the country ...
I didn't watch the entire video.. It's hard to believe that a pound of grapes is 10 rand.. When I was there last 6 months ago, I paid like 35 rand for a pound..
When's your visa expiring? I'd honestly stay ahead of it and leave now to avoid any issues at the last moment if I were you. Home affairs can be difficult.
He just got there I believe it's a 90 day visa, Tyne won't stay for over a month though! 😂
@@samuelwainaina1155 Thank goodness
I have been to SA a few times in the past years.. Compared to the U.S., supermarket prices are at least 25 percent less in general.. There are products in SA that are just as expensive as the U.S. Chocolate, ice cream, butter, some fruits, etc, etc, are actually more expensive in SA. I saw many in SA making very selective at what they were purchasing... It's a difficult time in the world with all the inflation.
This bloke is doing raw seegs tourism in Africa 🤣🤣🤣 good content though
Bro, thank you, enjoyed your video. Santon is pretty expensive, as it is for upper class and corrupt politicians. Enjoy your stay in South Africa.
Go do a vlog in street mall market 😂😂
R500 for grapes is a rip off maybe it was R50. Definitely not R500. 😂

For the record... Only monied people shop at Woolworths!!! So those are not run-of-the-mill prices...Woolworths is top-end... They charge 30% more for a loaf of bread!!!!!!!!!!!!
Life in south africa for south africans os expensive....
you know you are in a rich area if theirs a woolworths food near you
That time woolies is cheaper than Pick ‘n Pay and spar 😅
@@vuyokazimthethwa they are for basics not fresh produce or protein
@@marleneclough3173 not if you go to rich areas, then you can do your whole months shopping
@@luqmaanabrahams1971 yes you can but the fresh produce meat and dairy are not cheaper than other supermarkets but basics often are eg flour dishwash liquid
Is Woolworths food all over South Africa, he's definitely not in a rich area
Life in South Africa is expensive
life is in SA its Not expensive. It depend where you shop. For example he's buying food in the most expensive super market. The ate cheaper option like the shoprite,checkers and Food lovers market
No it's not
What is the boom for
No, it is not.
@@mhlave2440 iam going with exchange rate it expensive from 🇰🇪
South African is expensive
Grapes for 10$😭😭😭
We do not use $ here, we use R ( Rands). So R10 is equivalent to $0.53 at today's exchange rate. The normal price of those grapes he was looking at is R52.99c that is $2.79 US. This might help you make a realistic comparison 😉
@@mhlave2440 ...I don't care simply just coz Woolworth are owned by whites u can't shout Dudula nonsense but if it was owned by an African u would b all over here yapping... south Africa pipoos need to b colonised again
Not $10, we use Rand. It's not R10 for a punnet either, it's R50 (about US$2,60), and if you buy two, you 'save' R10, so two punnets for R90 (about US$4,70). It's a marketing thing. Always read carefully! And I think it said 500 grams, we only use metric measurements.
My guy,
Watch the video called A TOURIST TOOK THE WRONG TURN IN SA.
besides parts of Randburg....which areas would you suggest this tourist should stay away from???
Buddy life is way cheap here with the international standard...i am telling bro!
