Food Lover's Market Latest Specials: How to Find This Week's Catalogue and Judge an Aggregator Page

Quick answer: We cannot list Food Lover's Market's latest specials, because prices change weekly and we found no verified current catalogue. Catalogue aggregators such as Kimbino, Kaufino and Latest Specials republish flyers, with one saying new catalogues come out on Mondays, and one noting that the produce on sale differs by province. For the latest specials, use the official website or app for your store, check the validity dates and treat undated or generic pages as unreliable.

Last updated: October 2026. Information about catalogue sources comes from pages seen in search results; we quote no current specials. Worked numbers are invented.

Background: where specials come from

Supermarket specials originate with the retailer, which publishes a weekly or fortnightly catalogue in print, on its website and in its app. Aggregator sites collect catalogues from many retailers and display them in one place, earning money from advertising. They can be convenient for comparing across stores, but they rely on the retailer's flyers, which may be out of date, region-specific or incomplete. Some sites also add generic text that is not about the current week. If the Food Lover's Market offers are not quite what you need, it is worth comparing them with the latest Checkers catalogue and the current Pick n Pay catalogue before you decide.

Latest Specials, Kimbino and Kaufino all list Food Lover's Market catalogues, including the "10 Buck Tuesday" promotion that appears in descriptions. One page we saw was titled for February 2026, which illustrates how dated pages can persist. In October 2026, a February page is not the latest. So the first rule is to check the date.

Finding and judging the latest

Open the official Food Lover's Market website or app and choose your store. The catalogue should show a validity period at the top. If you use an aggregator, check that the validity dates cover today. Look for the region label, since produce specials vary by province. Scroll through the catalogue for fresh produce, meat, bakery and deli specials. Note items you need and their prices.

Judge each special against your price diary. On invented numbers, a 2 kg bag of apples advertised at R38 (R19 per kilogram) is a good price if you normally pay R26 per kilogram. A "special" of R24 per kilogram on tomatoes is not if you usually pay R22. Check weight and unit price, limits per customer and conditions such as loyalty card requirements. Plan your trip: a 12 km round trip costs R36 in fuel, so collect enough specials to justify it. Be sceptical of pages that make claims without dates or links to the official catalogue, and of "Market Day" claims on days that official sources do not mention. Share the official link, not screenshots, with family. Bookmark your store's page for quick access every Monday.

Consumer tips and cautions

Under the Consumer Protection Act, advertising must not be misleading; if the till price differs from the advertised price, show the catalogue and ask for the lower price. Keep slips and screenshots.

Beware of scams that use "latest specials" as bait for fake voucher links and surveys. Official offers appear on the retailer's website and app. Never share one-time PINs or card details. Avoid downloading unknown apps that claim to show catalogues, and check permissions of any app you install.

Set a weekly reminder to check the catalogue, plan meals around specials and write your list. Over a year, that habit can save several hundred rand, and it costs only a few minutes.

You can also make the catalogue work harder by combining it with a meal plan. Write seven dinners on a sheet, mark which ingredients you already have, and then match the missing ones with specials. Choose a protein from the meat specials, a vegetable from the produce specials and a starch from the pantry. If a special is excellent but does not fit your plan, ask whether you can preserve it: freeze meat, blanch and freeze vegetables, or cook and freeze a batch meal. Share the plan with family so that everyone knows what is for dinner, which reduces last-minute takeaway spending. Review at the end of the week what you bought and used, and note what you wasted.
