SO it’s that time of the year again where retailers are preparing for Black Friday and are having huge deals, which makes us sneaker heads and sports people go insane.
Since 2020 has been one of the worst financial years for many of us, I’m going to try and save you some of your hard-earned money and direct you to some of the biggest bargains on sportswear this Black Friday which is on 27 November.
So, I am a hectic shopaholic especially when it comes to cool affordable gear and I have managed to shop in places around the world from London, Amsterdam and Tokyo but I have to say South Africa is the cheapest place in the world if you know where to go.
So today I am going to share some of my favourite stores where you find the best deals.
