She liked what she read and saw. She was excited that shopping had become that easy. With in five
minute, we came across a good bargain and decided on Nike shoes for her. Initially, she was
worried about selecting the correct size. I advised her to stick to the size her regular size. The size
she buys off selves. We also went through the size chart. It was easy to understand.
We selected a size bigger for her she is growing up fast. We instantly received a confirmation on my
mail from Snapdeal. Our shopping was done.

Well, this is the easiest way to describe me. But, I can not always get out of the house. I have to
be there : to welcome servants, pay bills and receive letters. Jokes, apart, I am old fashioned. I do
not like to shop alone. I am also fussy about climate, traffic jams, and petrol going pricey.
On line shopping suits me, fits me and when it happened to me, I was in love. At first, I use to
browse the shopping portals without buying. I was worried about swiping my credit card. One
gets to hear about credit card scams. Bad news, they say travels fast.

There was not one 'Indian on line shopping portal' that gave me confidence. Most of them, did
not even ship to Kolkata. Until Snapdeal happened. I was super excited, finally an E-commerce
site in India that gave awesome bargain and deals and free shipping to every nook and corner.

I bought local salon deals and restaurant deals from Snapdeal and grew in confidence. Since then,
I have shopped with 99 labels, Fashion & you, Crazeal, Bhaap, Med plus, Jaabong etc.
However, Snapdeal remains a favorite. First love, they say is always special.

All most all my shopping experience with Snapdeal is a breeze. But the most recent one stands out
as, for the first time, I was ordering a pair of shoes. My daughter needed a pair of sport shoes and
she insisted on a branded one. There was no sale going on in any of the local shops.
I sat with my daughter and looked up Snapdeal, on my laptop. Kids these days are very smart. I
needed to show her what Snapdeal was all about, before she agreed to shop.

How do we know if the size fits us Ghazala? I mean size differs from brand to brand rt? Esp when it comes to clothes?
ReplyDeleteDear Jaish,
DeleteThe size table for Snapdeal is very easy to understand. As also
for other portals, I am sure. For clothes, you buy from Shoppers
stop and Panataloons, the same measurement should work :)
Thanks, and do let me know after you buy a dress on line. Bye~
Nice write up.. Btw nice shoes.. I haven't picked up clothes or shoes on line as yet but lots of Home Linen and kitchen stuff.

That was a wonderful experience, Ghazala. I am a bit apprehensive when it comes to online shopping but reading your positive review encourages me to give it a go :)

most natural. But believe me once you try on line shopping
you will love it. Try Snapdeal first, it is very convenient.
Thanks :D

ReplyDeleteMithil,
DeleteLOL, You are funny..! Good to know you have self control.
Thanks for your time. Glad you stopped by :D
the cash on delivery is the best option as there have be
ReplyDeleteen several sites where you have swapped the card but deliveries have not arrived.
Hi Dev,
DeleteCOD is the best thing to have happened to on line shopping..!
Sad to know about money charged on line with out any deliveries.
It is important to shop with a well reputed Portal, like Snapdeal.
They have 24*7 tele support. Thanks for sharing your views :D
Oh, I missed this, Ghaz....well, the only on-line shopping that I have done so far are from flipcart (books) and make my trips (air tckets/ hotels )
ReplyDeleteThis made an interesting read!! But don't you think, buying shoes can get a bit dicey...what if doesn't fit properly, or if doesn't look well. Do they change the design/ piece..? Just curious...all the best, my dear ♥
Dear Panchalidi,
DeleteBuying air tickets on line is common place. You must now turn
more adventurous, lol
I agree, buying shoes can be tricky, but I was sure about the size and the
brand I was buying , so did not hesitate. And, Snapdeal did not disappoint.
Thank you Di, I always look for your presence :D
the first time i shopped online on indiatimesshopping.com was a disaster! I got the wrong sizes and exchanges never happened...it really put me off online shopping! but flipkart changed that experience for me...snapdeal, have not tried out yet, i will, after reading this...
ReplyDeleteDear Lil Princess,
DeleteYou have such a bright presence. Seeing your DP, I feel elated.
Yes, a bad experience can leave a sour taste. Please, always
choose a reputed site while on line shopping.
Wish you happy shopping on Snapdeal. Thanks girl..!
I have very recently started using online shopping though for me it is still limited to flipkart only ;)
ReplyDeleteYou post gives me confidence to try other websites too!
Hi ME,
DeleteDo try shopping for perfumes and also restaurant deals.

for it is so convenient and time saving.
Thank and hugs ~
