Why am I Broke- The Story of Books!

These books have been bought in Delhi Book Fair last August. On the venue, I saw a lady roaming around with a trolley bag about the same size as that of a cabin luggage and I just raised an eyebrow. By the time we were done shopping, I had new respect for the lady because dragging those bag back home seriously required a coolie:|  This is a * part* of the haul since I don't have all the books with me right now.
Also, some of them were on hugggggggggggge discount.

Why am I Broke: Electronic Shopping Electronically with Flipkart!

Yes, cheesey title, I know!
Anyway,coming to the real topic, I am on the verge of being disowned, not only by my family but also by few other friends.Why? Because they don't want to foot the bill no more! Everybody has started telling me how much do you shoppppp?(As if I know!). I have even half started expecting people walking on the street to stop me and tell me, I need to cut down on my bills.No, this has not happened,YET.
So, I am trying to mend my ways and I will show you some of the old stuff that I got.
I was looking for a really cheap phone, preferably a dual sim and looked around a bit and the best deal I found was on Flipkart.

Online Shopping with Flipkart.com

Flipkart is the first site that I shopped from online.I was never sure of ordering anything online but I needed some books urgently.You might be thinking...who needs books urgently? Apparently, I do. I have ordered quite a few times from them.There was only one time, as of now, when I needed to call their customer care and  complain.They had shipped the package but the current status on the courier's site was insufficient address, which is so stupid considering I had received another package from a previous order just the day before "on the same address". I will still say they were very nice about it and I got my package as well but it took 2 days to make sure the courier company did something about the missing package.

The books are shipped from different warehouses so the delivery time differs from place to place. I have received books from Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Banglore.

Some of the books that I have bought!


The books come with small bookmarks which are very cute and they are wrapped packed in plastic before packing them in the card-boards(the one in pic above).If the product is delicate, it is wrapped in a lot of bubble wrap so that it reaches you safely.All the things that I have bought from them have reached me intact.
They have even started a gift wrapping service but they charge extra for it!:(




Everything is great about them except the two mentioned below.

Cons:
  • No loyalty programs or additional benefits for regular customers!
  • You've to pay for gift wrapping.
