    Also...the above assumes no politicians open their mouth and say something ridiculously stupid. Not the safest of assumptions tbh
    I agree hopefully they keep there pie hole's shut we must remain positive and not succumb to negativity.

    You more than likely right, and if it does get worse the repo rate will be increased and that will lower the rand/dollar exchange...

    This article should be entitled "Every product in South Africa to increase due to the weak rand"

    Repo rate has been increased, petrol going up, food stuffs going up, utilities going up, yada yada yada. Never ending spiral.

    Inn3r your 100% correct.... and lets not forget the wonderful Sanral which will make everything more expensive, as the consumers bear the brunt of it...

    Yip, everyone must fill up their cars tonight, petrol going up 37c or something.

    But when I saw that the PS4 price was increasing you gotta know its not the only thing. Absolutely everything imported will go up by the same amount, 10% or so in line with the exchange rate. Sad really.

    It's going to cripple you eventually. I think it's time you get a tent and move.

    I have been looking at getting a Bible from the states, thing has increased R350 in the last 3 weeks. :/ 10% increase over 3 weeks is insane.
