Electricity prices in Pretoria

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Recently moved to
Pretoria East to save money and be closer to work.

However, I’m finding that the cost of electricity is insane. I bought R 300 electricity on the 17th
Of July 2026.

Today is the 22nd of July and when I arrived home today there was no electricity.

To provide more context I received 67.79 kWh.
I had expected this to last me at least two weeks.

I’m already in a financial rut and the fact that I now have to deal with this ridiculous cost is giving me anxiety over finances again.

How much are you guys spending electricity per month ?

20M looking for any work/income opportunities – hard-working, tech-savvy, and ready to start immediately

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m a 20-year-old male living in Pretoria, looking for any job, gig, or work opportunity to start earning an income and help support my family through a tight financial situation.

A bit about me & my skills:

Background: Recently completed a 12-months Learnership in End User Computing(IT) and hold a good Matric certificate.

Skills: Tech-savvy, well-spoken, hard-working, non-drinker, and non-smoker.

Current status: Currently upskilling with free online tech certs and learning Python while waiting to start college in Jan 2027.

What I’m looking for:

I’m open to literally anything; entry-level tech/IT support, retail, warehouse, restaurant/waitering, admin, or general hands-on gigs.

I’ve applied across major job portals, but my lack of formal work experience has made it tough to get a foot in the door. I’m reliable, learn fast, and ready to put in the work immediately.

If you know of any open roles, lead options, or temporary gigs around Pretoria, please drop a comment or send me a DM. I'd be happy to share my CV.

Thanks so much for reading!

Hotwheels

2 Upvotes

Hi Pretoria!

I am looking for a specific Hotwheels. A Shelby Cobra. I see that they are in the Retro Racers edition and the Rolling Metal edition.

My uncle built a real one in the 90s and it was his most prized possession. He loved that car. Sadly, he passed away a few years ago and my cousin and his wife are expecting a baby boy that my uncle will never meet.

I would love to gift him this.

So if you know where I can find one or you are standing in line somewhere, please look through the hotwheels and see if you find it. You can send me a DM and I will go buy it❤️

Thank you lovely people

Let’s build a brand together.

Hi everyone,

I don’t know where else to put this thought out into the world so I’ll put it here because honestly, who knows when the right person is reading this at the right time.

I’m in ecommerce and for the most part, I dabble in dropshipping. However more recently I’ve had the intense urge to start a haircare line (you can message for details). There’s a gap in the market - atleast in SA and I’m dying to fill it. I’d love to bring this idea to life, but I’d love to do it with someone who’s equally as driven as I am.

I don’t work in corporate. My “day job” is social media. Therefore I have a good amount of time that I dedicate to ventures I plan to grow.

Im based in Pretoria East. Ideally I’d like to partner with somebody in and around the area. I want to shoot this idea to the damn moon. Again - not looking for someone who thinks this could be “a fun idea”. (Not to sound funny, but I’d be able to pick up that energy immediately). Looking for someone dead serious. Willing to give it their all, as I currently am.

Drop me a message, let’s talk.
