If you think the price of bread is high in the supermarket, you'll be shocked to know how much it goes for on Trade Me.
In fact, an auction for a half-eaten loaf of Vogel's has just become the auction site's fourth most popular listing ever.
The part loaf sold
for an impressive $4000, and the auction was viewed more than half a million times before it closed yesterday.
The seller, Dave from Kapiti, took a stab at Kiwis' lockdown panic buying and listed the part loaf on the site, alongside the description: "Quality part loaf of Vogel's bread (5 slices and 1 crust), no longer required as I now eat toilet paper".
The proceeds from the sale will be split between Mike King's I Am Hope and Ronald McDonald House.
