Win a Samsung Wireless Audio Dock
Audio docking stations really made listening to music from your portable devices a lot easier. Most of them are unfortunately device specific and will only work with certain models of phones, which is great if you only want to listen to your own music, but not so great when your friends come over. The Samsung Audio Dock has the solution. Besides being a dock for Apple devices, it also offers Bluetooth and airplay streaming right from your phone, playing tracks from a USB stick or drive and it also features AUX connectivity which by today’s standards pretty much covers them all. Besides being a really versatile music player, it sounds and looks great too. Go and get it.

Win a Samsung fridge

If you’re running out of space in your current fridge/freezer or it’s simply time to upgrade yours, enter this competition before you do. Home Magazine is giving away the beautiful Samsung Duracool Smart refrigerator featuring No Frost Technology worth R5 999.
