Weekend braai: Where to find the best deals on Traditional Boerewors and more

Nothing beats a relaxing weekend with friends and family around the braai, especially when Traditional Boerewors is on the menu.

But with prices on braai essentials rising, finding the best deals can make all the difference.

We’ve compared prices for popular braai items across four of South Africa’s favourite supermarkets – Woolworths, Checkers, Shoprite, and Pick n Pay – to help you get the best value for your money.
