Cyber Monday South Africa deals: all the game and tech specials you need to know [Update]

We will be updating this article throughout the day to reflect new and interesting specials from different stores. If you have any tips or information on Cyber Monday or Cyber Week sales, please email info@memeburn.com.

Update 1: We’ve added Raru’s EA Games sale.

After last week’s humongous Black Friday sale, South African ecommerce stores have adopted another American ‘tradition’: Cyber Monday. Generally regarded as the spill-over of Black Friday, Cyber Monday is definitely more geared to those who love their electronics — which is exactly why we like it.

Below are all the participating retailers and online stores offering Cyber Monday specials, so have a look and be sure to let us know if you spot any other deals.
