Online shopping is convenient,easy and you often get better
discounts than what the local shops have to offer. A little research and
you may end up saving even more. Here are some online shopping tips and
websites that may help you get the best deals while shopping online.
1. Get to know from friends, which is the best shopping
website.
If you are a newbie take tips from friends who have already done shopping online, and shop from trusted sites because some of the sites do not perform well and chances of dropping the order will be high.

2. Use Comparison Shopping Sites
There are number of
shopping sites in India and it may therefore take time and effort to determine
which of them offers the best deal on a particular product. Comparison
shopping sites like MySmartPrice.com,
Junglee.com, PhoneCurry.com
, Scandid.in,
Pricedekho,
Comparethebazaar,
Pricecheckindia,
Pricedealsindia, Shoppingwish
get prices from multiple online retailers (through XML feeds and web
scraping) making it easier for you to compare prices.
A disadvantage is that some of these comparison shopping engines may not have price data from all the popular retailers so the lowest listed price may not always be the lowest on the Internet.
3. Find Discount Coupon Codes
Some shopping sites accept coupon codes that you can apply
during checkout for some additional discounts on your final bill. Google is of
little help here since coupon codes expire very soon but there are quite a few
coupon updating sites – CouponDunia ,CouponRaja , couponzguru , couponation – where you may often find
active coupon codes for most online stores.
The coupons are organized by stores and the listings are
sorted by their expiry dates.
You should also consider subscribing to the email
newsletters of your favorite shopping sites and discount codes may sometimes
land up in your mailbox.
4. Earn CashBack on Online Purchases
Coupon codes aren’t the only way to save money on your
online purchases. Sites like CashKaro.com and Pennyful.in offer
cashbacks on your regular purchases as long you visit the shopping site through
the special links listed on these cashback websites.
It works something like this. You create an account at these
sites and it will provide you links to various retailer sites where cash back
offers are available. You visit the shopping site through these special links,
make the purchase as normal and the cashback amount will be paid to you once a
threshold is reached.
5. Set Price Alerts
You can use the price tracker to know when the online
prices of any item drop. Just put all the items you wish to buy in a Google
Spreadsheet and the tracker will monitor their prices for you. You can also use
the Mysmartprice
to set price alerts.
6. Watch Deals on the Social Web
Most online shopping brands in India are active on
Twitter and some of them do regularly post offers and deals on these
channels. It may thus be a good idea to like /follow you favorite retails on
the Facebook and Twitter so you’ll stay in the loop. You can also
follow @DealsForGeeks on Twitter to know about upcoming deals on mobile
and tech products.
Popular A-Z shopping sites like flipkart.com,
Amazon.in, Snapdeal.com,
eBay.in
and Infibeam.com have dedicated pages where
they list ongoing offers – you may want to monitor these pages or at
least put them in your browser bookmarks.
7. Research Online, Shop Offline
Not every local store may have a website but some of these
local stores may have better deals to offer than even the big online retailers
.PriceBaba.com aggregates
prices offered by the various offline retailers in a city and the site also
lists their phone numbers and addresses should you decide to make the purchase
from a local shop.
You can also find contact details of offline retailers
through their listings in the eBay and Junglee marketplaces. Give them a call,
ask for a quote and you may end up getting a better deal.
8. Wait, if you can
There’s no Black Friday or Cyber Monday in India
but shopping sites here generally offer better discounts around holidays and
festivals. Thus wait, if you can. You can end up saving quite a lot of money.
