deals this week"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>If ever you&#8217;ve read one of these tech deal features from MyBroadband, you&#8217;ll know that they start by delivering a lame joke or anecdote about how they bought the last pie at a Sasol garage, then proceed to tell them the best price on an external 1TB hard drive.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s much the same approach one of MyBroadband&#8217;s staff writers plans to take when being an emcee for an upcoming wedding.<\/p>\n<p>A member from the audience will then stand up, tell me them how unfunny they are, and proceed to throw their drink in the emcee&#8217;s direction.<\/p>\n<p>This will be closely followed by a groomsman shouting that the price of the 1TB drive is \u201cnot even a good deal\u201d, and he bought it for cheaper at Makro last week.<\/p>\n<p>The event will culminate with another guest proclaiming that the hard drive is actually a 1.5TB model, and that he must have failed primary school because he \u201cobviously can\u2019t read well\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s why they just usually just stick to writing tech features.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\"><strong>Lenovo 10.1-inch A10 tablet bundle from Makro \u2013
