Shopping Tips for Pensioners
Shopping wisely means more value for your money, especially when living on a fixed income. Here are some useful tips to help pensioners make the most of their trip to OBC New Sky:
1. Arrive Early
Get to the store as early as possible on 2 April 2025. Promotions are limited to stock availability, and the earlier you arrive, the better your chances of getting all the items on your list, especially those on special.
2. Bring Both Required Cards
You must present both your SASSA card and your Thola Zonke card to qualify for the Pensioner Discount. Keep them in a safe but accessible place in your wallet or purse before you leave home to avoid any delays at the till.
3. Use the Easy Pay ATM
OBC New Sky now has an Easy Pay ATM in-store, which means you don’t need to visit a bank or queue outside. Withdraw your grant money safely and conveniently right before you shop, giving you full control of your spending.
4. Shop with a List
Before leaving home, write down everything you need. Prioritise essentials such as meal ingredients, cleaning products, and personal care items. Shopping with a list helps you avoid impulse buying and keeps your budget on track.
5. Consider Buying in Bulk
If you have storage space at home and the funds allow, buy non-perishable items like rice, maize meal, sugar, and oil in bulk. These items usually come at a reduced price per unit, helping you save in the long term.
6. Compare Prices
Take a few extra minutes in-store to compare different brands. Sometimes a lesser-known brand offers the same quality for a lower price. Check the price per kilogram or per litre to get the best deal.
7. Bring Your Own Bags
Save money and reduce waste by bringing reusable shopping bags. Some stores charge for plastic bags, and those small costs can add up over time.
8. Shop With a Friend or Neighbour
If possible, go shopping with someone you trust. You can share transport costs, help each other carry groceries, or even split bulk items between households to save more.
9. Stay Safe
Watch your surroundings when withdrawing money and while shopping. Keep your purse or wallet close, and avoid carrying large amounts of cash.
10. Take Advantage of Monthly Deals
OBC often has monthly combo specials and meat deals. Ask store staff if there are any current promotions that can help you save more, especially on bulk meat packs or essentials.
By planning ahead and using these tips, you’ll get more value from your grant and stretch your budget further — all while enjoying the 5% Pensioner Discount on 2 April 2025.
