The Future is Now!

Somewhere back in the late 90s, it was an absolute thrill to take your brand new Nokia 3310 to school to show your friends, complete with its unnecessarily sturdy cover. You'd gather in a little circle and see who could get the highest score on Snake. Afterward, you'd go home and (while supposedly doing your homework) listen to your favourite music on a CD player covered with stickers of Britney and Ricky Martin. Life was sweet.

Fast-forward to 2023 and that phone and CD player would these days only be taken to school for 'show and tell' in history class. Nowadays, you can just download Britney and Ricky Martin onto a Samsung Galaxy Note 10+, like our main deal. You can then listen to them on a JBL speaker, also our main deal. When loadshedding hits, you can plug 'em into a Romoss power bank and make some cool art on a Cricut cutting machine while you wait - also main deals! Four main deals? Must be Tech Tuesday!
