Black Friday doesn’t have to be about standing in a long queue or spending hours looking at a computer screen shopping away. The biggest day in shopping can also be the best day to spend some coins on leisure activities like getting a manicure, going on a getaway and even eating and drinking to your heart’s content without breaking your bank account.

For those who’d like to splurge without setting foot in a packed store or spending hours hitting the refresh button, we’ve rounded up some great Black Friday deals for you.

Ster-Kinekor

If you like the bioscope but haven’t set foot there since the advent of streaming services like Showmax and Netflix, you should consider going this Friday. Ster-Kinekor is offering film enthusiasts a once-off special on Black Friday where you can watch a movie of your choice for R45 with a small popcorn and soda combo for R25. In total, that’s R70 to kick back with popcorn and a drink and watch exciting releases like 21 Bridges, Charlie’s Angels and local box office hit Losing Lerato.
