Social media went into meltdown mode recently when a user claimed to have found  seemingly identical scarves at two different retailers, one R150 cheaper than the other.

Twitter user SinayoHans posted a snap of the two scarves with their price tags showing.

One scarf, bought at Truworths, was priced at R220. The scarf is also available online for the same price.

The other scarf is from Mr Price and cost only R69.99.

That's a R150 price difference, fam.

The post soon went viral, with some claiming to have found the scarf at other retailers for around R180.

They thanked sis for "doing the Lord's work" and alerting the nation to a bargain.

Who needs Black Friday when you have bargain Twitter?
