It’s almost December! While online shopping apps and websites have online sales all the time, 12.12 is so crucial. A big part is because the holidays are coming — ‘tis the season for giving gifts after all. While everybody’s feeling generous, nobody’s going to refuse to save a couple of bucks in the process either.
With just a few days to go before the big date, get your cart ready but also keep these tips handy. We’re going to make sure you save money and buy everything on your list most effectively.
Lazada Sale — All You Need to Know
The build-up to Lazada’s biggest sale of the year is real! You see notices and promos all over the internet and even in person. Don’t let the hype get to you and your wallet. Read on to find out how to get the best deals on LAZ.
Shop from the App
I know a lot of people who uninstall their online shopping apps to stay away from temptation. If that’s you, or if you normally do your shopping from the website, install the app now to take advantage of them.
Collect those Coupons
If you check the Lazada app or website, you’ll find vouchers that you can grab for extra discounts. Work fast and check back often because they run out really quickly.
Cart Now
Don’t procrastinate about hitting “Add to Cart”. This makes it easier to checkout on the day of the sale, lets you access pre-sale benefits, and keeps your desired items from running out.
Mark Your Calendar
Lazada’s 12.12 sale is for one day only! Make sure you set your alarm so you don’t miss the price cuts they have in store.
Shopee Sale Musts
Shopee’s sale is also known as the Big Christmas Sale. We’re sure you didn’t miss their ads, especially with Manny Pacquiao starring in them. They offer up to 50% discounts on items across all their categories, and the best thing is that it’s not just for one day! The sale started last November 15, with the biggest discounts set to drop on December 12. To make the most out of Shopee’s 12.12 heed our suggestions below.
Login Every Day
Unlike Lazada, Shopee’s sale spans a couple of days so it pays to login and check out the advertised deals every day.
Know the Schedule
Together with daily logins, it’s also helpful to know the daily promos they have in store. There are different deals scheduled for every day of the week. These give you the chance to double your savings or earn more coins to get discounts on future purchases.
Shop from Official Stores
Sure, some brands don’t have official Lazada stores — however, if something you need or want is for sale in an official store, it’s best to purchase from there. Aside from the sitewide sales, official stores also offer bundled products for even more value.
A Few More Things
We’ve discussed the differences between the upcoming sales on two of the country’s biggest e-commerce platforms. Now, let’s have some general tips for online shopping in general.
Compare Prices
It seems like a no-brainer to compare prices between sellers, but you should also compare prices between the two platforms. Some products tend to be cheaper at one compared to the other.
Play the Games
Both online shopping sites have games for their users. Aside from adding to the fun of shopping, you also stand to get more savings as a prize. Score!
Check Feedback
Make sure you thoroughly read the feedback if available. If you’re choosing between two shops, consider the shop rating of each one before continuing with your purchase.
Put Together a List
This is especially important if you’re already shopping for holiday gifts. This ensures you have something for everybody and also helps you control the temptation to buy everything in sight.
Track Your Purchases
This is especially important if you’re paying cash on delivery. Make sure every delivery is something you actually bought to prevent the hassle of returning merchandise and asking for a refund.
