He also asks his followers: “How much would this cost in the UK or USA?”
@cakesJaglas says: “Easily $800, depending on where you shop you could maybe get it down to $600/$700, but easily $800.”
@IamSamChaveiller replies with laughing emojis: “8000 in New York.”
South Africans reveal in the comment section that inflation is hitting everyone, and food is also expensive in the country.
@Shannonbr.wn from South Africa says: “That is almost 4-5k in South African rands. As astonishing as this is to a first world citizen, it’s almost unthinkable for the average South African citizen to purchase. In some cases, that alone would be someones salary for the entire month. As cool as the video is, as shocking as it seems, it’s nothing but a stark reminder of the poverty gap we are facing in our country.”

@lukhunaofficial: “I don’t mind buying groceries for my apartment. The problem starts when I have to pack it into the cupboards. Iyagqilaza oe!”
@mkhulu.mkayiso: “I feel like kuncani (small) for the amount. 😢😭😭😭💔 The items are great, can I come get a plate?”
@thobeka_thala; “That is plus minus R4900, ey our rand kodwa msindisi.”
