Black Friday 2018 came early this year: by Thursday morning, there were already many deals on offer.
Makro
Marko’s Black 5 Day promotion is up and running with some good deals on TVs and appliances. Here is the in-store catalogue. You can also visit their website for online shopping. Those who shop online will only be able to buy sale items - non-sale products will not be available until after Black Friday.
One of the craziest Makro deals Business Insider has seen so far is for this 750ml 50 year old bottle of Glenlivet Single Malt Scotch Whiskey, selling for R399,999 (was R549,000).

Woolworths deals are hot today.
Woolworths offers 50% off men's shirts as well as a 50% off handbags today. Online shoppers will also get 50% off leftover stock online. But good luck with using the site: the Woolworths platform is taking some serious strain, it seems.
