Best of the online best-sellers

February was a month of love for some, for kalahari.net on the other hand, it was a month of dramatic discounts and change. South Africa’s pioneering online retailer launched its Big Mama sale in celebration of its new-look website. It meant great products at giveaway prices, such as award-winning DVDs for under R30, up to 80% off books and the first eReader in South Africa for under R700.
