Forget red roses and chocolates this Valentine’s Day. As with all the big ‘holidays’ in the calendar year, you can end up spending a fortune on a gift. Instead, shop at Cash Converters for a pre-loved item that your loved one will really appreciate… that is also gentle on your wallet. Here are some amazing (affordable) budget-conscious gift ideas that the special person in your life will love.

Jewellery: Spoil your beloved with some of our perfectly refurbished jewellery. There’s everything from necklaces, bracelets and earrings to engagement rings, wedding rings as well as a vast selection of beautiful dress rings. Our items range from 9ct, 18ct and even 22ct white gold, yellow gold, and silver rings with diamonds, pearls and semi-precious stones to pendants, chains, watches and more. All of our jewellery is up to a certain standard and cleaned, so that it is shiny as new.

Tech: Stay in touch with your boo all day long with a pre-loved cell phone (think Samsung, iPhone, Huawei and others). We also have tablets, laptops and an entire gaming section – and accessories – if that is what they prefer.  

Hobbies, Collectables and Antiques: No matter how your loved one chooses to spend their downtime, we have you covered with everything from sewing machines to model aeroplanes. There are also collectible cars, watches, Kruger coins, plus gorgeous antiques and everyday items such as cake stands and art.

Furniture and Décor: Make date night at home easy with our use-them-everyday ‘sets’ (crockery, cutlery, pots and utensils). There’s even beautiful tea sets and tagines, as well as unusual finds, big brand names and everyday functional items.

Home and Garden: Create a space you both love and want to come home to every night. Find smaller items such as kettles and toasters, fans and air fryers. Or spoil your loved one (and yourself) to a dishwasher or braai (gas or coal). For outside, we have lamps, lawnmowers and more.

Musical Instruments and Equipment: Forget putting yourself into debt over a musical instrument. For the music lover, we have instruments (such as guitars, keyboards and drums… even ‘unusual’ ones like clarinets) at amazing prices.  You’ll also find amps, accessories and other sound equipment.

Outdoors and Sports: For the sports fanatic, there is everything from useful smaller gifts such as golf balls and fishing reels – to much more specific items such as motocross boots and boxing gear. Really trying to impress? Go for a bigger item like a bike or a golf bag. For the outdoorsy type, you can’t go wrong with our cooler boxes, camping chairs, torches, tents, binoculars and more.

Photography: Savour the memories you share together by gifting your beloved with something from our dedicated photography section. Think cameras ―such as Nikon, Sony, Canon and Go Pro ― or accessories including batteries, bags and lenses. We even have vlogger kits and drones.

Tools and Hardware: For the DIY-er, we have everything from sanders to heat guns and toolboxes to tile cutters. Or buy smaller items such as hand drills, pipe cutters and more.
