patches Posted April 19, 2016 Share Yeah awesome. As the newest member it would be great to meet whoever is around. Sweet deal! Welcome! Hope you guys had a decent flight. Once I find out which hotel I'm in, and how mobile I am, we can arrange a meetup. It'll have to be McD's or Burger King, because eve those meals are like R150 - R200 a pop. Or we can meetup at the nearest Pak 'n Save after 8pm, when the pizza rolls go on special (3 for the price of 1).  If I have to mention an 'ugly' it has to be food prices. Yes I'm converting, but I haven't been paid yet so I'm still running on Rands. But yeah, R35 for a lettuce. R50 for a 700g pack of tomatoes. And that's all form the cheapest of the 3 main supermarket chains.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was still fine. Gave it a whiff again this morning... still fine (1 weeks after 'expiry'). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said you paid R170 ish for the items below (I think there must have been a chocolate hiding there somewhere...haha) but the items came to R130 at WW. Not toooo bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
