The Benefits of 27Coupons

"It's a WOW time!" Sarita kept humming this now and then in a jarring and unmelodious voice.

I was trying hard to concentrate on my work, but her tune was rattling in my ears although the statement was making me very curious. I gave in and asked her irritatingly, "What is WOW time?" 

She rolled her eyes and started humming it again. 

I could not take it, " Could you please elaborate and not just go about in circles" I requested.

She smiled and while blinking a couple of times she pushed her hair behind her ears, pulled a chair and held my hand and made me sit next to me.

Opened her laptop, and pointed to a site.

"27coupons! Okay! So, you have 27 coupons to shop" I breathe in deep but more puzzled, "I still don't get you" while massaging my temples since her wow time was irritatingly vibrating the cells of my brain, and I did not really get the wow message, yet!

Sarita got the message, and went on typing a keyword amazon on the site, and it opened a site with coupons pertaining to amazon. 

http://www.27coupons.com/stores/amazon.in/

"Look! Isn't it wow" she exclaimed with wide eyes! 

I quickly brought myself closer to her, and without taking her permission, I took her laptop and searched for my wish list on the site, and was ecstatic to find coupons with reference to it. 

"Oh! it is a WOW time!" I squealed with delight, as I was shopping for favorite author books, watches, and a smartphone that I had longed for but could not get a discount. To top it all, I got a collective discount on my total amount spent. The shopping was done in few minutes since my wish list was stored in the gray matter for long, and that longing got a quick chance to cough up as soon as an opportunity came knocking.

While typing in my credit card information, I asked with interest, "How did you come to this site?"

"27coupons has been in business for long, and they have collaborated with many famous stores such as Flipkart, eBay, Myntra, and Yatra are some of them. They offer discounts not only merchandises but also on Cruises, Festive Gifts, Flights, Flowers, Entertainment, Grocery, Jewelry, Hotels, Holidays world wide and Health and Fitness.

"Interesting!" I squealed as I bookmarked "27coupons.com" site.

I quickly put the credit card in my wallet and sent out text messages to my friends. 

Sarita was quick to peep and giggled as she closed her laptop.

"It sure is WOW time, and I see you are spreading the happiness around."

"Yes, somebody has to be the Santa Claus, and spread the news around for all of them to avail of these magnificent discounts." I winked and got up while giving out a loud "Ho-Ho-Ho."

Sarita had a smile on her face, as this time she sang in a proper pitch, "It sure is a WOW time. Thank you 27 coupons!"

Mantra for today: Never underestimate the power of online shopping. It can not only give you peace of mind, but also good deals.

Review and Spotlight on Against All Odds by Jazz Singh

 

Against All Odds

by 

Jazz Singh 

 

 

The Blurb

The first time they collide, he thinks she’s a con artist, she believes he’s an arrogant snob.

It takes several meetings to change their minds about each other, but eventually, Abhimanyu and Sanjana strike up a friendship that seems destined to turn into something more. He’s a rich successful businessman, however, and she’s a small-town girl who doesn’t fit into his glittering world; a fact that Abhimanyu’s mother has taken pains to point out.

Will they ever overcome the odds, or are their lives on parallel tracks, never destined to cross?

MY Review

Against all Odds talks about the probability of what life could throw at us. 

This story is about a young couple Sanjana and Abhi, who meet by chance, and keep bumping into each other accidentally. These coincidental meetings make them fall for each other, and even though the girl tries hard to avoid him, he is right there even though by chance. This attraction can then no longer hold its reins, and they fall head over heels with each other, defying the society and their rules.

Until one day!

An incident broke Sanjana's heart, and she distanced herself from Abhi. But, then fate had plans for them, and they met in an awkward situation which turned beautiful like old times, after they cleared their inhibitions and opened all barricades that were misunderstood. This resulted in them uniting, and since love was in the air, the parents rejoiced irrespective of the thick line of class defined by society. 

The Author highlighted a major hurdle that Indian Society faces when two lovers of different societal group unite. She brought it out in a neat fashion without digging deep the ugliness that is usually associated with it. The story is neatly woven with some classic elements such as Respect, Freedom, Status, Ego, and Forgiveness thus, making it a worthy read. The ingredients are well kneaded into the story line making it light and breezy.

Meet the Author

Dear Readers,Jazz Singh is one of the most illusive writers I have met. So respecting her need for privacy we have not asked her for a profile picture or a writeup. Long back, when I had first interacted with her.. I had asked her the reason behind this. Her answer was… I want to be known for my work. All I can say to that is… She will be…

Wordless Wednesday #64

Today I talk about footprints, just like that leaf in the above picture left its impression.

We have got to do our actions so that tomorrow when we are not around...our actions will speak for ourselves!

Mantra for today: Let's be in the present and move cause if no action; no life!

Cover Reveal:

MATCHES MADE IN HEAVEN

Romantic Short Stories by

Sundari Venkatraman

Sneak Peak

Swayamwar on TV reality show; Dating Clubs; Matchmaking websites; parents setting up their children with one another; friends getting married and more – there are many ways that couples get together for hopefully a “Happily Ever After” experience. MATCHES MADE IN HEAVEN explores the various premises in the form of short stories that one can relate to in everyday life. There is even one based on Gods falling in love. Shh! I am not going to say anything further. It’s for you to find out.

And there are thirteen of them. While many insist that “13” is an unlucky number, I am quite fascinated by it. I absolutely believe that it’s a lucky number for me. That’s why I decided to publish this anthology with 13 romantic stories. 

About the author

Sundari Venkatraman has authored four novels and a short story anthology till now, Matches Made In Heaven (anthology) being the latest. The Malhotra Bride; Meghna; The Runaway Bridegroom; Flaming Sun Collection 1: Happily Ever Afters From India (Box Set) and Matches Made In Heavenhave all been self-published on Amazon under the banner of Flaming Sun. The three novels are regularly seen on Amazon’s Top 100 Bestsellers’ Contemporary Romances list. The Box Set and Anthology are bound to catch up soon. 

A great fan of Mills & Boon romances over the past four decades, Sundari has always believed in ‘Happily Ever Afters’ and all her books promise happy endings. 

Matches Made In Heaven is a compilation of thirteen short stories – all romantic – based on many situations anyone can come upon in their day-to-day lives. The stories revolve around the different ways a couple can get to meet and tie the knot in a culture rich country like India. Those reading the stories will definitely be able to connect realising that one of the situations has definitely been a part of their lives. 

So here you go........

Diwali and Halloween

Raj lights lamps in all corners of his house  with hymns playing in the background. He is celebrating Diwali the festival of light that symbolizes the victory of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance.

Just then the bell rings, he opens the door to a bunch of kids dressed in spooky costumes and shouting, "Trick or Treat."

He smiles, grabs his bucket full of treats and shouts "Treat...Treat!" As if surrendering to their threat in a sweet way!

Shuts the door, and continues with his prayers of the Hindu festival that comes around the same time as Halloween.

Wordless Wednesday #63

When celestial bodies adorn the sky.

It makes not only the human race, but also other species to pause and admire the beauty of Mother Nature!

Mantra for today: Some kind of allure do not need any translation!

This Christmas?

 I was taking a walk around my neighborhood when suddenly there was a loud thunder followed by torrential downpour. That made me duck under the roof of a home. I started hearing some familiar, but loud voices coming from the four walls.

Could not resist, I walked around the home, to be able to recognize those sounds that seemed to have quite a conversation. As I glanced through the window; I jumped in horror.

Took physically broad steps towards my home; sure that a catastrophe is about to strike since Santa and the Grinch are under the same roof.
