Easy online shopping hacks-India

Online shopping is a boon for those of us who have no time or energy left for shopping.So,I thought of sharing some hacks that might come handy.

1:Make use of the 'first time shopper' discount most sites offer.Also check out App exclusive discounts.See this one for instance.

2: Look for the same product on multiple websites before ordering.Make sure that you add the shipping charges too while comparing.Just copy the image of the product,go to tineye.com ,paste it and voila!

3. Limit your shopping to once a month,every two months or so.Bulk purchasing saves a lot on the shipping charges ,and your time too.

4. Invest in e-wallets that offer good cashbacks. If you follow #3,the cashback and additional discounts can be significant over time.

5. If you like a particular site,use its premium service like Amazon prime, Flipkart advantage and etc.Better deals,privilege offers and other things are sent over emails.

6. Buy summer clothing in winters,and vice versa to save huge,and I mean HUGE!.

7. Dont hesitate to raise any concerns if it occurs like size,color,fit etc.Chances are,you'll be heard and get even better services the next time.

8. Go cashless. Enough said, #4 is yet another reason to go cashless.

9. Look for local sellers on Instagram and Facebook .Many small shops still don't sell on websites,and offer really great products at a fraction of the cost.Check out The hidden store on Facebook.

10. Do not shop during Sale time or peak load time .Your orders will get delayed.

 11.Not all sites can be trusted .For new sites, first try out accessories like earrings, scarves etc and then gauge the quality of the good.


Do tell me any hacks I missed in the comments.Happy Shopping!

IIT Kanpur MBA Interview experience 2016

H ello. Trying to blog about an experience isn't my forte , comments would be appreciated. While I looked for articles on this topic, I didn't find anything useful. So here I am to tell you about my experience. I write CAT 2015 in November and my result was quite a shock (dont ask why)!!.I knew my chances were bleak,but something in me whispered to fill out the application forms. I filled out the MBA form for IITK &  was called to IITK Campus for further rounds on April 3,2016 at 2 PM. Upon reaching, the first hall we had to report to had busy student coordinators handing out the checklist. They also offered to help with photocopies and other last minute stuff, which showed how meticulously they took their work. After the checklist, I was sent to another room where all my documents and mark sheets were verified, percentages recalculated and submitted. I was allotted a number and a panel. After this, we were escorted to a conference hall where the briefing abo

5 new ways to drape your dupatta and scarves this year!

Hey all,attempting my first fashion related post,Do let me know how is it in comments. Scarves are a cheap yet chic way to add an oomph to an everyday outfit,and can be worn in winters as well as summers.It is important to pick a scarf in the way you want to wear it,whether it means picking a scarf as the star and building an outfit around it,or realizing you need to fix a malfunction (pee-a-boo) and add a drape to soften the look.The fabric,print and the color affect how each knot looks,so play around. I scourged through Pinterest one lazy afternoon,and here are my best picks. 1: The half bow: Effortless and sexy.Works well for long as well as short scarves.

Five best Open source (and FREE ) software you should be using already!!

For those of you who do not know what Free and Open Source software is,Google is your friend. [Free = Free speech and not Free Beer]. Its okay,you can read this article without any prior knowledge of open source.All software listed below are free to download,or at least try.Keep in mind that the latest isn't always the best,sometimes going down a version or two can really help with the stability.It may require a little breaking into the new shoes,but the output is definitely worth it.This is not to say that all proprietary software is useless,but its good to know that we have alternatives. 1: No License for Microsoft office?  Use LibreOffice,KOffice or OpenOffice Instead.Its free,stable and has more features and add-ins.Explore before you give up and thank me later 2: Use GIMP ( GNU Image Manipulation Tool)  to "Photoshop" your Photoshop woes.Again,stick with it,you'll be rewarded.And check out Blender if you're into modelling and animation. 3:What??
