According to last year’s study by cable.co.uk, 1GB of data costs about R40. Expensive, right? Well, various network services do offer cheap data, and RAIN is leading the pack. It offers a range of unlimited 4G data plans for only R250 a month, with no contract.
- Get a battery charger
Fake remote batteries will inconvenience you as they run out anytime. Buy a Duracell charger and lithium-ion batteries which are rechargeable. They may not last long, but you will be able to reuse them.
- Get smart LED light bulbs
Do away with searching for candles during load shedding. Smart bulbs are rechargeable, easy to install and boast a battery life of up to +5 hours.
