Let’s say you are shopping online for a new smartphone. There are a couple of steps you can take to ensure you are getting a great deal and the best offer in just a few clicks.

1. Check a couple of websites to ensure that you are getting the best price. Comparing prices in a few different shops can help you spend less on a given product.

2. Sign up for email notifications or alerts for the products you are interested in. When the price drops below a certain level. This lets you set the maximum price you wish to pay for an article, and saves you having to check back, so you get the best deal for no stress!

3. Research a few different models. If you are not too concerned with having the most stylish and up to date Android phone, a slightly older model or one in a different color may save you thousands of bucks.

4. Be on the look out for seasonal offers. Not just Diwali and Black Friday, but also other festival deals such as New Year, where shops can have amazing offers on electronics as well as other tech items and white goods.

5. Don’t forget about smaller, more local online shops! Sometimes the best discount or offer is not available in a large, online superstore. Some smaller websites may even specialize in a given category and provide better post-purchase customer service.
