Use affiliates to get cashback on eCommerce shopping

Are you someone who can't wait for the Amazon or Flipkart sale to begin and put on your shopping hat? Or you shop for (almost) all your major needs like grocery, medicines and more via eCommerce, irrespective of the offers?

Apart from the regular discounts they offer and using wallets to get cashbacks & discounts, here is another way you can get additional cashbacks --Use affiliates to to the website where you want to shop!

There are several affiliate websites which can help you get a good deal. The way they work is that they send traffic to the eCommerce website & get a commission for referring the users and enabling purchase. Many of these affiliates pass on the benefit to the end customer in form of cashbacks. 

In India, some of the affiliates you can use are Cashkaro, GoPaisa, Cash Pe Cash on JioMoney and many more.

Most of these cashbacks work on mobile websites only (and not Apps). Cashback rates usually varies according to product category and the website and are usually a function of the product margins. So you may get say, 1% cashback on buying a mobile phone, 5% for buying medicines of groceries, or even 25% cashback for buying clothes online. On some good offer days, you may end up getting even over 50% cashback! 

So, next time you shop on eCommerce websites, try going via an affiliate.

The Forest

The Toyota Qualis and the Chvrolet Tavera stopped after a long journey. It was almost 9 in the night and it was pitch-dark. Night times in a forest are always pitch-dark. Adding to that it was a good `thirteen days since the last full moon day. Adding to this, the cloudy weather made visibility close to zero. Later in the night the forest would be engulfed in a fog making it nearly impossible to see. The only noise audible was that of silence, few random insects and that of a train going at a distance. After a long journey they all were quite weary and all they wanted was some rest so that the next day morning they can head for tiger and rhino spotting among many other species of flora and fauna in the wildlife sanctuary. Right now it was time for some parathas, maggi and booze. All fifteen of them headed for the cottage which they had booked, sat near the fire place relishing food, chit chatting about college life, universe and everything. But chit chatting wasn’t what they came ...

What's the purpose of investing?

"Investment" - This word is much used and often much abused one. One keeps on hearing this almost all the time be it in office or catching up with friends or attending a family functions - almost everywhere. More so when we are fed with lot of information about how one needs to make money work to get more money. However, for a lot of people, the clarity on one question is often lacking - What is the purpose of investing? And even if one knows his/ her purpose of investing, it is often not implemented in real life. For instance, purpose of one's investments may be having sufficient funds in times of need. Yet they may opt for a personal loan when faced with pressing need for money. Based upon my observations, below are some of the most common purpose of investments (in no particular order) I invest because there is some sufficient funds lying with me and I can get great returns. I am investing for some specific goal - buying a house, education of kids, m...
