How far would you go for a Woolies hot chicken?

We are all familiar with the disappointment that follows hot rotisserie chickens selling out at the supermarket after a long day at work. However, one customer has gone out of her way to secure herself the very first chicken off the rack.

This act of desperation was captured on camera at a Woolworths supermarket and shared across social media – leaving users shocked and impressed.

A TikTok user has posted the footage which shows the Melbourne shopper setting up a camp stool – brought from home – right by the empty rotisserie chicken display.

At the end of the video, you can see the roast chicken super fan sitting on the stool as she eagerly waits for the display to be stocked with fresh chickens.

“Ready to go to war for the first hot chicken,” the TikTok user wrote with their video, adding the hashtags #karensgoingwild and #shoppingwars.

The user went on to say that they “couldn’t believe what I was seeing” when they spotted the customer set up on the camp stool.

“I circled around four times to capture this!” they added.

The video was a big hit on TikTok.

“Who knew buying hot chickens was a competitive sport?” said one.

Added another: “The little stool! Dedication!”
