Checkers Hyper Specials, October and November 2026: Live Catalogues, Sixty60 Validity and How to Read Them
Quick answer: Guzzle lists Checkers Hyper catalogues running from 19 October to 8 November 2026 for Gauteng and several other regions, plus a shorter Eastern Cape run to 25 October, and a Checkers Facebook post says its deals are valid at Checkers Hyper and on Sixty60 until 8 November 2026. The current campaigns are branded "Better Every Day", and the only Xtra Savings catalogue we found, for the Eastern Cape (28 September to 18 October 2026), has expired. Wikipedia counts 786 stores across all Checkers formats in 2026, not Hyper alone, and we found no verified Hyper-only store count or "Price Drop" programme.
' 'Last updated: October 2026. Facts come from Guzzle, Cataloguespecials, My Catalogue and LatestSpecials listings, a Checkers Facebook post and Wikipedia (Checkers). An aggregator showing "39 locations" for Checkers Hyper did not explain what it counts, so we do not use it. Regional validity dates vary, so confirm yours on checkers.co.za.
' 'What is live
'| Catalogue | Validity listed | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Checkers Hyper (five catalogues live on Guzzle) | 19 October to 8 November 2026 | Gauteng and several other regions |
| Checkers Hyper, Eastern Cape | Shorter run to 25 October 2026 | Eastern Cape |
| Checkers Facebook post | Deals valid at Checkers Hyper and on Sixty60 until 8 November 2026 | National post |
| Xtra Savings (Eastern Cape) | 28 September to 18 October 2026 | Expired |
| Checkers Liquor | See our Shoprite and Checkers liquor articles; one Shoprite Liquor catalogue ran 22 October to 8 November | Liquor |
With the main Hyper catalogues ending on 8 November 2026, they finish before Black Friday on 27 November. Expect a new set of catalogues for the festive season. Earlier in 2026, a Checkers Hyper "Price Drop Promotion" for Gauteng was listed on an aggregator (27 April), but we found no evidence of an ongoing programme by that name.
Checkers formats
'| Format | Role |
|---|---|
| Checkers | Standard supermarket |
| Checkers Hyper | Large store with food and general merchandise |
| Checkers Liquor | Liquor outlet (18+) |
| Sixty60 | Delivery app; R11.9 billion in sales for the six months to 28 December 2025 |
The 786 store figure on Wikipedia is for all Checkers formats combined. Earlier research found 661 in 2025, so the network grew; but the two figures come from different pages and dates.
' 'How to read a Hyper catalogue
'- '
- Find your region. Validity and prices differ between Gauteng, the Eastern Cape and others. '
- Read the dates on each page. Several catalogues overlap. '
- Check which prices need Xtra Savings. Member prices apply only when you scan your card or app. '
- Check Hyper-only items. Appliances, homeware and electronics may not be in smaller Checkers stores. '
- Check the Sixty60 price. The Facebook post says deals are valid on Sixty60 too, but delivery fees apply (R37 from 1 July 2026). '
- Compare unit prices with Pick n Pay, Boxer and Makro for staples. '
Worked example: should you add Sixty60 delivery? (invented basket)
'| Option | Basket | Fee | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shop in the Hyper, travel cost R30 (fuel or taxi) | R900 | R30 | R930 |
| Sixty60 delivery | R900 | R37 | R937 |
| Sixty60 with Xtra Savings Plus (R99 a month, orders over R350 free) | R900 | R0 (R99 monthly) | R900 plus subscription share |
With these numbers, delivery costs R7 more than driving. If you order four times a month, the subscription's R99 is R24.75 per order, less than the R37 fee.
' 'A smart routine for a Hyper shop
'A Hyper store is large, and it is easy to walk out with items you did not plan. Before you go, open the catalogue for your region and mark the five or six items you really need that are on special. Check your cupboards, your freezer and your fridge so that you do not double-buy. At the store, go to the specials first, check the shelf tags against the catalogue, and only then browse other aisles. Keep a running total on your phone, and use the trolley rather than a basket if you are tempted to fill it.
At the till, scan your Xtra Savings card or app before the cashier starts, because some systems apply member prices only at the start of the transaction. Check the slip before you leave: if a special did not apply, go to the customer service desk with the catalogue page or a photo of the shelf tag. Retailers usually fix genuine mistakes on the spot. If you buy appliances or electronics at a Hyper store, keep the slip and warranty card, and check the model number against the catalogue.
'| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Mark five or six needed specials in your regional catalogue |
| 2 | Check cupboards and freezer to avoid doubles |
| 3 | Verify shelf tags against the catalogue |
| 4 | Scan your Xtra Savings card first at the till |
| 5 | Check the slip and raise mistakes immediately |
