If you are still deciding what to get, then here's a list of 10 must-have items.

1. Playstation 4

Because why not? Also, your son, boyfriend, husband, and probably father (because boys and toys) have been nagging you for it. I’ll let you in on a secret, best way to get them to do anything you want or need is to just promise them uninterrupted time with their ‘baby’. Or threaten to restore factory settings if they don’t do as you ask. However, do not waste these threats and once in a while, do right by your threat.

2. DStv Explora

It’s December, and what better way to keep kids entertained this festive season? Loads and loads of movies, cartoons, and music. This is the perfect accessory for your lounge. It gives you viewing control and awesome HD picture. Also, the price is an amazing R899!

3. Mountain bike

Beautiful summer days call for a ride in the park. Stay healthy and fit with a mountain bike. Perfect for those of us who don’t like running but want those toned calves and thighs. And this gift is perfect for anyone in the family.

4. Nespresso machine

Because #coffeeislife and we love George Clooney.   

5. Oros

The national drink of South Africa will be on sale this Friday at Makro and Checkers Hyper. Look, with the economy living its best life in our pockets, staying refreshed has proven to be somewhat draining. What better way to keep everyone hydrated than with a jug of freshly made, perfectly mixed Oros?

6. Glow in the dark condoms

Stay safe and have fun while doing it.  

7. Fitbit

This little gadget is compact and perfect for any activity, whether you’re exercising or playing your weekly game of basketball or cricket. These tend to be pricey, but it seems quite a few retailers have these on sale as well as other brands that offer a similar product.

8. Laptop

Personal laptops have become more and more of a necessity than an accessory. And it’s a great gift for anyone including yourself. There are some great deals on Takealot and Raru. Laptops have now become smaller but still very practical and easy to pop into your handbag or backpack, making for easy travelling.  

9. Digital camera

Capturing memories will always be a definite reason to spend a lot of money. This Black Friday there are a few cameras on sale at Makro and Game.  The nice thing is you can take up an online photography course and make extra money on the side. Great gift even for a matriculants heading into the big bad world of Varsity and they too can make money on the side. Photos can be sold to media houses or to stock image websites.  

10. Inflatable pool

Perfect for keeping cool in summer and the fun thing about this kind of pool is that in winter it can double as a play pen for your little one. And instead of just draining the water into the street, you can repurpose the water for ablution or watering of plants.
