India's largest value-focused e-commerce marketplace Snapdeal has kicked off its Mega Diwali Sale, offering buyers the opportunity to add three types of discounts to get the lowest price for their purchases.
For instance, a 49" Full HD LED TV is priced at Rs 22,990 against the full price of Rs 39,990. Using IndusInd Bank or Standard Chartered Bank cards, buyers can get another Rs. 2000 additional discount.
They can then also apply a "GET400" promo code to save another Rs 400. Thus, the effective price would be reduced to Rs. 20,590, a saving of nearly 49%.
Similar offers are also available on popular items like Fastrack / Titan watches, sunglasses, JBL sound bars, Philips bluetooth speakers, trimmers and hair dryers.
A range of household offers includes fast selling items like gas stoves, pressure cookers, cotton bed sheets, double-walled coffee and tea mugs.
Motorized treadmills, leg and foot massagers, fitness equipment and active-wear (track pants, t-shirts etc.) are very popular Diwali purchases.
