Price Check

Food prices change over time and if prices don’t go up then portion sizes go down. Either way food prices are not stable and you will end up paying more over time.

For example consider just some recent changes over just the last few months:

    • 2L milk: Was R24, now R30+
    • Bread: Was R13, now R18+
    • Cooking oil: Was R35, now R60+

If your budget hasn’t changed, then it’s time to relook your food plan and make adjustments. Better yet, start to shop smart so that you can get value for money.
