    Takealot increases minimum order size for free delivery and changes checkout defaults

    They do realise that, for a lot of items, they no longer have a monopoly? Amazon and the likes are going to eat their cake. Amazon still has huge room to expand their offering.

    Cloud.co.za VPS Price Doubled After Ordering?

    Mistakenly sent emails are data breaches in South Africa — Legal experts
