From 18-24 December, between 10am and 4pm daily, Uber riders will be able to do all their Christmas shopping through the Uber app by simply requesting an UberSleigh - a van full of Kalahari's best-selling products that will come right to your door.
The products in each of the three vans will be divided into four sections; For Him, For Her, For the Kids (girl, boy and both) and Generic (gender neutral). All items will be under R1,000.
Within these categories Kalahari will pick the best-selling product lines for fashion, beauty, books, music, movies, appliances, gaming, tools, sports and outdoor. Products will vary based on stock when the truck is packed each morning, but Kalahari will stick to these categories and will ensure to always include the top-selling products.
The three vans will be kitted out with a festive Christmas design, drivers dressed like Santa Claus and there will be some helpful Elves to assistwith purchases. There will also be a few familiar faces in the vans, like Karl Ahari, TV presenter Kia Johnson, and comedians, Paul Snodgrass and Colin Moss, to help spread the festive cheer.
There is no need for cash - once you have selected your products, all payments will be done through the Uber app and you will receive a payment receipt via email.
If, for some reason, you don't find anything you like, there will be a secret Santa pack, so you still walk away feeling the Christmas spirit.
To request a ride, users must download the free application for Android, iPhone, Blackberry 7, Windows Phone or register for Uber at https://get.uber.com/go/ubersleighSA.
