Duane W Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 FYII was wondering around the IGA around the corner from me and I saw a shelf with 3 kinds of Mrs Balls a few flavours of Ouma rusks, Pecks Achovette, Marmite and Aromat. There was some rooibos tea Lemon Creams, Finger biscuits etc. Oh yes Koo Jam and Chakalaka. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wendy Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 (edited) You can get Mrs Balls at your local IGA or Coles. Most of them sell Boere wors aswell. The IGA in Padbury (WA , close to Joondalup ) has got the best South-African Boerewors I have tasted in a long time. They have also got some biltong. You can also get some SA booze at the bottle shop there. Woolworths advertises Amarula in their flyers. Looks like we're taking over here.

Noele Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 HiThere is a South African Shop in Winterton Road in Joondalup, Perth, and they sell a lot of products. The prices well ... makes you rethink just how badly you want/need or are missing the products. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 I saw an interview on local TV recenty with the owner / MD / CEO / boss of IGA in Australia. He had a noticable and very clear South African accent, so I recon he is South African and therefore it would explain why they stock Saffer goodies in their stores.

In Perth I know of 4.I saw an interview on local TV recenty with the owner / MD / CEO / boss of IGA in Australia. He had a noticable and very clear South African accent, so I recon he is South African and therefore it would explain why they stock Saffer goodies in their stores.
