27coupons: A New Destination for Discount Coupon Shopping

Discount shopping is a hot trend in the online retail shopping industry. Gone are the days when consumers used to buy products at display prices or sale discount prices. Online discount coupons are the latest trend.

Look at the search trend in search engines, Google and Yahoo, coupons dominate!

After my last experimentation with cashkaro, I discovered yet another website 27coupons.com which provides exciting shopping coupons from different online shopping portals.

I was overwhelmed to discover that some of my favorite brands such as snapdeal and homeshop18 were affiliated with 27coupons. What’s even more fascinating that I was able to discover a long category list for the coupons which were available on the website!

 

27coupons.com

Top Category List at 27coupons:

The list seems long, but that is not all!!

On browsing through the list, my eyes stopped at the restaurant section for a change! I was actually planning to have a pizza for my dinner the same day and thought to try the restaurant coupons! There were as many as 23 coupons and 6 offers!!

I started browsing through the list! Dominos, food panda and Khana khazaana were present.

But since my favorite Pizza Hut did not post any coupon for pan pizzas, I dropped my idea.

Next, I set my eyes on buying something which would cost under 100 INR. Laptop skins by shopnclues.com quickly captured my attention! I found the coupon offer for attractive laptop skins! I have recently bought a new HP notebook (just 1 month old now).

And I found the skin I had always wanted at an offer price of INR99 (all costs included with a free home delivery).

I thought this post might be of some help to shopping enthusiasts like me who love grabbing the latest deals at throwaway prices.

Some of the most attractive deals I feel you must try at 27coupons.com:

  • Bank Coupons, Deals: Use the power of your bank debit card or online banking to get attractive discounts!
  • Reward and redemption scheme which allows cash redemption of INR 50 for every 1000 points.
  • Store coupons, deals from your favorite online store!

How to get the most out of your online shopping?

  1. Check the deal you want. Ensure that the deal or coupon is valid for the time period.
  2. Ensure that the coupon you are buying does not have a high minimum purchase limit. I just love coupons which are valid on any purchase.
  3. Never shop on suspicious websites.
  4. Never share your confidential information with any customer care executive.
  5. Keep your visa debit password protected.
  6. Opt for Cash on delivery (COD) where possible.

Word of caution

After the recent data breach at Target Inc., an important lesson to be learnt is adopt new secure visa debit cards and credit cards.

Hey, do not get serious, enjoy your online shopping and keep reading my blog updates!

My shopping experience with Cashkaro

In the modern era of high-end technologies and a digital revolution being witnessed in India & throughout the world, online shopping has become an easy option to save money and valuable time. If I look back at last 10 years, I was not very confident with the idea of shopping online but the time has changed today with many Indian online shopping portals which have come up to offer great shopping deals and a variety of payment options.

I tried my hands at debit card payments at snapdeal and there was no looking back since then. I did have mixed experiences with online shopping at various portals (snapdeal.com, homeshop18.com, futurebazaar.com, shopclues.com so far). Some experiences were good and some were not so good but I love online shopping and cannot resist the lucrative shopping deals online.

Recently I discovered a website which offered additional money back on my shopping! I did enough research on cashkaro.com to ascertain that I shall be saving additional money with the website. I was very excited to know that many of my favorite online shopping brands had collaboration with cashkaro website. I was eyeing a piece of Jewelry set ( a necklace set) from homeshop18.com but postponed the plan as I already have a lot of imitation jewelry in my collections. I then thought of buying some useful stuff and finally set my eyes on a wooden laptop table which I wanted to buy since a very long time. The cost of the table was important to me but quality & material also mattered a lot. I went to my favorite website snapdeal to find the product but did not prefer the heavier version of wooden laptop table. I also checked with homeshop18 but the price range did not suit me.

It was while browsing the various shopping deals at Cashkaro, I discovered that Groupon deals were quite money-saving. At last, I found an attractive deal at groupon where the wooden laptop table was available at just Rs999 and COD (Cash on Delivery) was an acceptable payment option with the website. I quickly registered with cashkaro.com with my email and as per instructions on the website, I visited groupon website by clicking links on http://cashkaro.com/stores/groupon.

However I was not sure if my cashback will be properly tracked with cashkaro.com if I browsed a deal different from the deals displayed at Cashkaro. I quickly shared my doubt with cashkaro customer care & they promply resolved my queries and ensured that my cash back shall be tracked by the system once I visit groupon through cashkaro links.

Once my doubts were resolved, I clicked on groupon links on cashkaro and I was then redirected to the Groupon website where I selected the deal for wooden laptop table (http://www.groupon.co.in/deals/shopping/Wooden-Laptop-Table/524561). I selected the COD option and my order was processed.  Within 24 hours of my online purchase, I got an email from Cashkaro announcing that I had received a cash back of Rs 32.13 on my shopping with Groupon! I am happy that I earned a cashback of 3.2% (32.13/999*100) without paying any extra money for my shopping! And therefore I can say that I got my laptop table for Rs 967!! Encouraged by the good shopping experience with Cashkaro, I made it a point that I would definitely use my cashkaro account for every online purchase I make.

I think I shall be able to soon collect a cashback of Rs 250 in my cashkaro account which is the minimum amount I need to withdraw the money earned to my bank account.

Hope after reading this, you too register with cashkaro.com and save money in these economically tough times.
