Checkers/ Shoprite App- So Fresh

I was waddling down to Checkers, the other day. No ways I'm paying R1 more for everything at Pick 'n Pay. I'm a clever duck like that. At Checkers,  I go hunting the whole store for a basket trolley (I'm not going to look like a knob with 10 items in that huge Venture sized beast). Find the basket trolley, but dont find the blue wet wipes. Checkers almost never has the blue wet wipes. Thats why things cost R1 more in Pick 'n Pay. A little peeved, I swear the security guard and then make my way to the bread section. On the way to Aunties bakery I notice a sign about the Checkers app. Being fairly cellphone competent I whip out my poor mans smartphone, Blackberry Curve and download the app, which according to sources is available on the Itunes Store or dialing *120*885*1# on your old ass phone. The Shoprite app can be accessed through typing shoprite.mobi or by dialing *120*569 on your old ass phone. It pretty slick; you can check out all the discounted and promotional items in the store at once. You are given a Wicode which is typed into the credit card machine, and this activates all the discounted items in your purchase. Please note you can only use a Wicode once per day. This Wicode thing, makes you look less like a grant bearer using food stamps (the old Checkers discount food stamp book). I was pretty chuffed with myself and walked out from Checkers with my groceries in my Dischem and Spar packets. I'm an economical duck like that.

I'm a little slow, how do I get started again?

The new EeziCoupons app has since reached the number one spot in the South African App Store for free apps. For me, this finally has restored some belief in the decisions taken by the majority in South Africa.

Bottom Line: Download the app sand save yourself some young money baby.
