More and more South Africans are embracing the staycation boom according to the country’s Department of Tourism which says staycations have become a key travel trend for years to come. While Black Friday is often touted as the best time of the year to get high-end electronics and appliances, consumers can also take advantage of some DIY deals to prepare for summer staycations.

Janet Booysen, Marketing Executive from DIY retailer Builders says, “Over the festive period, we see a lot of customers visiting our stores to shop for both large and small renovation projects. To give these customers long-lasting value this year, we’re offering Black Friday deals on products that will benefit our customers well beyond the festive season, providing long-term home improvements that they and their loved ones can enjoy for years to come.”

In addition to these Black Friday specials, the recently launched Builders+ benefits programme will give members free delivery for online purchases over R500 between now and November 30th, within a 30km radius.

From building that backyard braai, to upgrading the kitchen, or even investing in a generator to keep the vacation spirits high during load shedding, here are some DIY hacks to make your dream staycation a reality.

 

 

 

 

1. Stay cool in the summer heat

South African summers are notorious for their often-excessive heat and sunshine that can get too hot to handle. So, you should ensure that you're well-equipped to offer everyone respite from the sun when the need arises to rush inside to cool down.

Installing a Goldair Split Air Conditioner 12000 external unit inverter air conditioner will provide some much-needed refuge and an excellent way to effectively cool down the air temperature to the ideal point through a refrigeration cycle. This investment will also pay off with the cold SA winters, providing ample heating as much as it will cool down your home. Builders also offers installation services to help you get it done cost effectively and professionally.

 

 

 

 

2. Keep your feasts merry

The last thing you need while halfway through your festive feast cooking is an unscheduled power outage (or even a forgotten load-shedding slot), bringing all your master-chef-level cooking plans to a grinding halt.

A Goldair 4 Gas Burner Hob Stainless Steel SGH-400ST will eliminate the risk of load shedding getting in the way of your cooking plans. This handy addition to your kitchen is gas-powered, it will provide instant heat, multiple-pot cooking, and energy efficiency to keep your pockets smiling throughout the festive season.

 

 

 

 

3. Don’t lose that holiday sparkle

This time of year is ideal for you to wind down from work and relax with loved ones, and one of the best ways to do this is to light up a braai and spend the day by the pool - which means maintaining its sparkle and keeping it blue and radiant.

Maintaining your pool correctly and using quality chemicals, like HTH Granular Chlorine, will ensure you keep your cool summer entertainment area clean and safe for everyone, young and old, to enjoy more memorable moments.

 

 

 

 

4. Gather the family for a potjiekos feast

The best part about a South African staycation is immersing yourself in authentic South African traditions, like gathering the family around the fire for a mouth-watering potjiekos feast. All you’ll need to turn this tradition into reality is fire, coal, the right ingredients, the great company of loved ones, and a three-legged potjie pot.

 

 

 

 

5. Keep the festive lights on during load shedding

With little chance of load shedding taking a vacation this festive season, it’s a good idea to take proactive measures to keep the festive lights on by looking at alternative energy options. That way, you and your loved ones won’t be left in the dark during your much-anticipated staycation.

One of the best ways to do this is to invest in a Grip 5.0Kva Petrol Recoil Start Generator, which will help power up your television, lights, internet, fridge, and karaoke machine to keep that holiday entertainment going!

 

“This Black Friday is a great opportunity for our customers to not only make their staycations more memorable but also get their hands on products that will add long-term value to their homes”,” says Booysen.
