Just kidding. We would never mislead anyone to spend anymore money than is necessary, especially when January is right around the corner. What we can do, though, is alert you to a few deals you might have already been saving money towards for this Black Friday (29 November) anyway.
According to our poll results, South Africans are looking forward to spending on things one can presume are necessities, or at least, investment pieces - with 43 percent of readers indicating that they'll be keeping their eyes open for appliance, homeware and gadget deals, 20 percent will be stocking up on festive season groceries, and the remainder on clothing, beauty and travel.
Additionally, Business Tech reports that top search terms in the lead up to Black Friday include Fitbits, sneakers, hoverboards, fridges, and air conditioners.
