Black Friday has hit our shores and South Africans are going berserk.
Black Friday is the American tradition where retailers slash prices and have massive sales on the Friday after Thanksgiving. While many criticise the mindless consumerism behind the idea, it is very popular in countries that participate, and massive bargains can be had. But beware - if you are keen to shop today, expect very long queues and aggressive shoppers.
Here are some of the best deals and what we suggest you shop at each store:
