Tips for Amazon Great Indian Festival

  1. 1Add items to your cart or wishlist before the sale so you can check out fast when deals open
  2. 2Check the price history of an item before buying; a large 'MRP' cut does not always mean a low price
  3. 3Read the bank offer terms: there is usually a minimum order value and a maximum discount per card
  4. 4Compare the same product on Flipkart, which usually runs its festive sale at the same time

What it is good for

See every sale that matters for each category.

Check the deal before you buy

Is the discount real, and what will you pay after the bank offer?

Is this discount real?

Compare the sale price with the MRP and with what the item usually sells for. The usual price is the one that matters.

From a price tracker or last month

A small real saving

Off the MRP
60% (₹3,000.00)
Off the usual price
9.1% (₹200.00)

The MRP cut looks far bigger than the real saving. That is a common sign of an inflated MRP.

Bank offer and coupon stacker

Work out what you really pay after a coupon, a capped bank discount, cashback, exchange and EMI fees.

Coupon
− ₹1,000.00
Bank instant discount
− ₹1,500.00
You pay at checkout
₹47,500.00
Effective price after cashback
₹47,500.00
Total saving
₹2,500.00 (5%)

Stores apply offers in their own order and terms change per sale; check the offer details at checkout.
