Great online shops!


Now there are like a thousand great online shops. Jabong and Flipkart get two thumbs up from me!


With the advent of so many online-shopping portals that give a lot more benefits than the physical outlets, online shopping is growing very popular amongst both men and women these days. And in case you still do not know what online shopping is, (having not shopped online is still acceptable) you are living in a jungle!

Coming back to the point, the benefits include - easy pay (even cash on delivery), a lot of options to choose from, cool return policies, 24X7 customer support etc. 
Jabong is one step ahead in COD. You can use your credit/debit cards at the time of delivery (the delivery boy brings the magical machine and even insists you to use your card).

Though there are obvious caveats to online shopping like you can’t try the apparels and of course, what good looks on the super-pretty, zero-size models might not suit you at all (on the contrary you might feel prettier...in case you look like the writer). The exact color may vary from what you see on the website (errors could be from their side as well as due to the configurations of the monitor you use) and you might not be sure what, for example, semi-crepe feels like. Nonetheless it can’t take more than 30 days to figure out whether something suits you and has the right size, fit, color, material etc. You can avail the full benefits of the return policies, which can be free return within 7 days at some online shops to even 30 days  (as in case of Jabong, FlipkartMyntra etc).

When you shop from popular and trusted portals like Jabong, Flipkart etc. you also get an assurance that you will get 100% authentic stuff. This is because before using a particular brand name and selling their products, it is necessary for them to take proper legal permissions. So, the chances of getting non-branded stuff in the name of branded ones get reduced a lot.
Besides at some stores you get an additional off that you will not get anywhere. For instance Jabong gives you a good introductory discount on every sign up. And you can misuse it by signing up several times! Some sites give special offers, gifts and discounts on particular brands. Fashion And You is one of them.


If you love luxury, online shopping is a great idea. You don’t have to visit a hundred outlets, and wait for your turn to enter the trial rooms or even when it comes to billing. So you skip all this and still get the best deal. All you need to do is go to the website and type the product name. You can also use filters of a particular brand, size, price etc. to ease out the process further. Now isn’t this truly luxurious? (I know the answer already!)

For sure this shopping process is quite simple. But if you think you still have confusion (like when your internet's not connecting and you don't know where's the "command" key), just dial the toll free number and irritate those sweet customer support executives. They are ready for help, always!

There is still a crazy reason to shop online. A lot of people feel that when they get the delivery of the order at their doorstep, they actually feel that they just received a gift. Now, this could be because they think they've put up a little effort in getting so much. Plus the order comes in cool packaging. That might sound crazy, but indeed what many people believe and say. 



The 'penner' of this piece feels you’ll have to start online shopping to find out the truth. Her advice comes from her own shopping experience.
