Hello friends, how have you been? It has been some time that I wrote here, but then I am always in touch, isn’t it?

Yes! And I am back with a new post on the upcoming Great Indian Festival on Amazon. This time it is the festival special edition and comes with a lot of discounts and cash back!

The Amazon Great Indian Festival is going to be available from 10th to 15th of October, 2018 on both their website and on the app; and those who have Amazon Prime Membership can access the celebrations from 12 noon, on 9th October under Prime Early Access Scheme.



In this post today, I am going to talk about top 10 items (and a couple more, in addition) which are in my focus for definite reasons. This time, I am going to cover items for everyone and from different categories, so that none of my readers leave empty handed from here. There are actually items from my wishlist too.

Before I get on with the list, I will also like to tell you that there are a couple of other offers that are available on Amazon India website and app, right now.

Rs. 300 Additional Cash on Wallet Recharge 

The first one is an offer where they give you additional cash on recharging your Amazon Wallet. You can load a minimum of Rs. 3,000 Amazon Pay balance and get flat Rs. 300 additional cash in your wallet. However, this offer is effective only from the 28th of September 2018 00:00:00 PM to 8th of October 2018 23:59:00 PM.

So, if you are looking to buy things at this festival, better recharge now and use this extra cash. You can also purchase your favorite items without this offer.

Rs. 2,300 Cashback on App purchases

Apart from this, there is an app only offer that will be activated during the festival. You can shop at the Amazon Great Indian Festival and get up to Rs. 2,300 as cash back if you pay using Amazon Pay on your Amazon app. 

So, if you have not downloaded the app yet, please download the Amazon App and take advantage of this offer. Non-Prime Members can reap benefits of up to Rs. 1,650.

Those were the two offers going on apart from the huge discounts on various items all over Amazon. Let’s start with the list of items I have handpicked which you can purchase during the Amazon Great India Festival.



If you like watching TV and are fed up of paying extra to the cable guys for unused channels, you can switch to Amazon Fire TV Stick. Watch TV even when you are away or on the move. They say, “Connect Amazon Fire TV Stick to your HDTV and start streaming movies, TV shows, and songs from Amazon Prime Video, Hotstar, Netflix, Gaana and many more services. Subscription fees may apply.”

It even has a voice remote.




Amazon Echo is a path-breaking technology that was introduced in India only recently, by Amazon. I am sure you know about this by now and may be waiting for some sale to buy it. If yes, then this is the time. Go ahead and purchase this smart-speakers set which can connect to Amazon Alexa as well as all other online music streaming sites, like Amazon Prime Music, Saavn, and TuneIn.

You will have to just ask for a song, artist, or genre using our own voice and it will play it for you! Cool no?




Now, most of us have that one thing they wanted to buy for sometime now to decorate their home or a wall. And I am no different. 

For a long time, I wanted to buy this photo frame and I am sure it is going to give my big nude wall a great look. This item is directly taken from my wishlist! Check it out…

Just a word of caution: please check the dimensions of the entire frame before choosing it for your wall. If it does not match, you can find a bigger or a small product on Amazon too. Those may be also available on discounted price.




If you were looking to buy a Television for your home or for parents or anyone else, here is your chance. This product is available for a huge discount on Amazon and it is available on Amazon Prime too.

It is a mid-range television with sufficient audio output enough for a big 12x10 living room I believe.
However, it is an HD Ready model and not Full HD. If you are looking for a bigger and 1080p display, then you may go for Panasonic 101.5 cm (40 inches) TH-40F200DX Full HD LED TV (Black) as well.




Well, enough of pushing away that fitness band that you have always wanted to have. Now is the best time to get that too. Fitbit is a renowned company and their products are feature rich and are loved globally. 

However, it is a little on the costlier side. If you are looking for something cheap which will do the job for you, go for Xiaomi's MI Band 3 which is very new in the market as well.



In fact, I have purchased MI Band 3 earlier this week and took advantage of the Rs. 300 extra addition to the Amazon Wallet. I am wearing it right now and it is providing enough information that I need. Works for me. It is my first fitness band as well.

You will soon see an unboxing and review video on my YouTube Channel on MI Band 3. Subscribe to the YouTube Channel as well.




The big guy in my list now! Get ready for the discount on this mobile phone and I guess Amazon is going to have a big discount on OnePlus 6 mobile phone.

Are you having your eye on this phone since it was launched in India? It took the market by a storm and rocked all over the country. It is one of the highest and fastest selling mobile phone in the country.

So, if you are looking to get this phone, probably now is the best time. Take advantage of the Great Indian Festival on Amazon and purchase it NOW!


Friends, before I proceed, I just want to request you guys to please comment and let me know if you have purchased and what you have purchased during the Great Indian Festival. It would be awesome to see what you have bought.





Well, this is a cheaper phone, but in no ways is it ignorable. If you can check the reviews and the number of purchases made, you will find that Redmi 6 Pro is one of the most frequently bought mobile phone in recent times in India. 

Xiaomi is bringing in a wide range of phones and accessories in India and I am a big fan. Most of you already know that both my phones are Xiaomi phones (Redmi Note 3 & Redmi Note 4) and now I have an MI Band as well. 

So, if you were looking for a budget phone, this is one of the best choices available on Amazon right now.




When it comes to sound quality and noise cancellation, very few can match Bose headphones. This one is no different. 

So, if you were looking to purchase a headphone and were waiting for the Amazon Great Indian Festival to start, your time has come! Go for the headphones and since you are buying, buy the best available in the market. This one certainly ranks high up there.

I am more than sure that you will have an awesome experience with these Acoustic headphones.





The festivals are starting and we are getting ready with gifts for our near and dear ones. So, I thought I must add a gift item in this list too. 

This I have taken from my own Amazon wishlist. 

Check it out and if there is someone whom you want to gift this to, you can get this during the Great Indian Festival on Amazon. This will best suit a couple whom you know very closely and have a close friendly relationship.




How could I create a list for this upcoming shopping event on Amazon without having a kitchen item in it? I cannot – simply cannot afford to.

So, here is that one item specifically for our kitchen. It can be an awesome gift too for your wife, mother, sister, friend or anyone who loves cooking.

The clip-on pressure cookers actually are very easy to handle and they cook food a little faster, I believe. We have the exact product at home, which was bought recently and I am sharing with you my first-hand experience with these types of cookers.

If you cook regularly at home, I am sure that this is going to bring a smile on your face for sure. You will remember me while you will be using this pressure cooker.

Well, before I end, I have one more product to share with you all. This is again from my wishlist and I think it is something worthy of mentioning here.




If you were planning to start your home gym and get active with your weight loss plan or simply want to stay fit, then this professional home gym kit will do wonders for you. 

Even though it looks to have a lot of equipment which a beginner may not use initially, but trust me when you get on with your workout routine, you will feel that you needed one more item and then you will have to purchase this one by one.

In this gym kit, you will get the most useful equipment in one single bundle which can give you a holistic experience of the professional workout. Check this out and do let me know if you bought this. 

This product is one very close to my heart. I need to get one of these for myself!

So, my dear friends, with this gym kit, I come to the end of this particular list of top 10 items in focus for the upcoming Great Indian Festival on Amazon. It is kind of my own wishlist which I am sharing with you through this blog post.

I hope you liked this list and would want to purchase some product in the upcoming shopping festival on Amazon.

If you do, please let me know in your comments. I would love to know.

Please also note that the links that I have used in this post are all my Amazon affiliate links and would earn me commission if anyone purchases using these links.

Thanks again for being with me so far. It is awesome to actually write to you from time to time. I will try to be more regular. 

But that should not stop you from reading my Freelancing Blog and watching my videos on my YouTube Channel. Do leave your comments and let me know that you are there.

I wish you all the best in whatever you are doing. I will be back with my next article. Stay in touch!
