BARGAIN BASKET SELLS HARZARDOUS AND SUBPAR PRODUCTS !!!!
The ********** things this establishment gets away with are atrocious, I have been a faithful patron of this store for years and recently purchased a couple of items including two containers of 200 grams of cocoa on the 9th of June 2024. After preparing a cup for myself, I noticed an unusual taste in the cocoa. Upon discussing this with my husband, he pointed out that the expiration date on the label of the container was 18/06/2024. The average shelf life of cocoa powder is 3 years if unopened and 2 years once opened. So I am completely shocked at where they get the gall to sell cocoa powder with a 2-week shelf life. This is beyond belief, never in my life have I ever seen such a complete disregard for consumer safety. This is not only classist but ****** too, especially considering that the people who frequent your establishment are mainly black people who form part of the proletariat, the working middle or lower class, but that does not mean we deserve to be sold sub-par products. What you guys are doing is outrageous, I want a refund and an apology. Update: Bargain Basket is continuing with its ********* business practices. Instead of acknowledging and rectifying the issues raised, my comments have been deleted from all their social media platforms. Unfortunately, my colleague who I shared the cocoa powder with, consumed it and subsequently experienced symptoms of food poisoning. I intend to escalate this matter to the National Consumer Commission to ensure they are aware of the unacceptable conduct exhibited by your establishment.

Stinking Attitude of Teller
I went to Bargin Baskets Pinetown today and i am extremely disappointed with the pathetic service from tellers, specifically teller 4. The young lady didn't even greet and had so much attitude all over her face. I go to the store every week, but i feel like changing the store that i go to, to avoid the stinking attitude of the staff member.

Great Store and Culture
My everyday shopping for odds and ends finds me at the Bargain Basket Store... Usually I dont buy things that are for events and celebrations until it is abo****ely neccessary. In planning a birthday for a family member, I had to get a snack platter dish. This means, staff need to be very helpful to assist a customer should they not find what they require. When looking for any collectibles and quaint things for the home, you will certainly find it in this store. The staff go out the way to help the customer and I like that is has everything under one roof to create memories to last a lifetime. I strongly suggest other mass stores take notes and create the same environment for shoppers .
