Anyone use an accountant for their SA tax returns?

I've been doing my own for the past 6 or 7 years. My return isn't very complicated - just a couple of income sources. Wondering if an accountant would find creative ways to reduce my tax bill or if I'd just be providing them all the information to then fill in exactly what I do.

Thanks all. Sounds like overall probably not worth it unless self employed (I'm not).
I'm not really interested from the time/convenience point of view, just any potential tax reductions. It only takes me a few hours and the time consuming part is assembling the records which I'd still need to do even if I used an accountant.
