Here are tips to help you navigate through the virtual aisles like a pro:
1. Make a List of Items You Want to Shop
We all have a wish-list of items that we want to buy. Be it that tissue kurta set or a wispy organza saree or an easy breezy stack of everyday clothes or some jewellery. Admit it, you have it saved in your collections on Instagram or Pinterest. Now is the time to list it all down to the T and then decide, what is it really that you want. Wardrobe Staples or few statement items or a mix of all ? This exercise will help you stay on track and avoid impulse purchases.
Now head-over to the SALE section and start adding items to your cart first. Keep adding everything you like so that you dont have to go through multiple pages again.
2. Build Your Everyday & Occasion Wardobe
Sale is a good time to build up your wardrobe. If you have been eyeing something for a while, it is now time to make that purchase. Wardrobe Basics for office-wear like everyday kurta sets, structured or fluid pants, easy breezy tops, AM to PM coord sets, comfortable dresses made in rich textiles like handwoven cotton, kala cotton, silk, linen, hemp and chanderi can be quickly added to cart. You will never regret shopping for this. These are your everyday needs. Ask any Image Consultant or a personal stylist and they will concur. If you like a particular style, and it has more colours, buy them all sister. You need to know what works for you.
Occasion wardrobe building is tricky. You need to first get your basics in place. Like ivory, black and red kurta sets, gold tissue kurta sets or gold saree, tissue pants that can be teamed with many old kurta and so on. Once you have lined up your basics, go towards kitsch and exquisite items. A statement trench coat, embroidered blazer, festive kurta set, statement jewellery et al. can be categorized in this section. It always makes sense to purchase these exquisite items that you won't wear as often also on SALE.
3. Check Pre-paid Discounts
While you might be wanting to opt for Cash on Delivery Method, most Online Retailers will encourage Prepaid Orders. This is to ensure that the customer doesn't change their mind right before the product is out for delivery. Check with the platform if there is any additional pre-paid discount or not. In case there isn't, you still SAVE money by not paying COD delivery charges. Every single penny matters - haven't you heard, money saved is money earned ?
4. Check Return & Exchange Policy Beforehand
Most brands will not accept any returns or exchanges for items purchased during SALE. Always check on Return & Exchange policy of brands before you make that purchase. Be doubly sure of your sizes. Seek assistance from brands to get that size correct. Remember, you will not be able to exchange it at all later on.
5. Beware of the Impulse Buy Monster
We've all been there - adding items to the cart like there's no tomorrow, only to regret it later. The impulse buy monster is real, folks! Before clicking that "Buy Now" button, take a deep breath and ask yourself if you really need those multiple dresses. (Okay, maybe you do, but you get the point!)
So there you have it, 5 tips to help you conquer the online sale shopping spree in India. Remember, it's not just about the discounts, but the thrill of the hunt! Happy shopping, savvy shoppers! Ciceroni Diwali SALE begins from 2nd Oct 2024 to 4th Oct 2024.
