A mountain of laddoos, delicate rangolis, joyful guests armed with presents, a brand new festive avatar and tons of shopping…Diwali for me means all this and more! I personally love delighting people with presents as much as I love receiving them. Which is why; I usually shop a month in advance to ensure that I buy something thoughtful for all my loved ones.
Diwali is also the time when I love to thank you, my lovely readers, who have been through with me in this long and I hope worthwhile journey of blogging. You’ve been through my meanderings and ramblings and have encouraged me to write more and write better! And that is why I love to surprise you with blog giveaways!
When it comes to family, I usually do the boring thing and gift them something they need, not something that they want. There is BIG difference in these two things of course! My sister may need a new pair of spectacles but she may be secretly lusting after a new ASUS Zenfone!
So, this Diwali, I have tried to do something different and have bought people some of the most insanely ridiculous and cute things which will light up their faces for sure.
Have a look!
They are gorgeous aren’t they! My favourite is the felt phatakas!
And as for baby sister, who celebrated her 20 years yesterday, I plan to gift her the ASUS Zenfone!
Psst… don’t tell anyone but there is something in it for me, too!
You see, Asus is brightening up lives this Diwali with the “Har Pal Happiness Offer”, where customers (one of them who is me) buying a ASUS Zenfone will get a chance to win Flipkart gift vouchers worth Rs.1,000 every hour. And, one lucky customer will also stand a chance to win gold vouchers worth Rs.25,000 every day! The offer is available here . I really hope that I am one of the lucky ones who walks away with the 25k gold voucher! Keeping my fingers crossed!
So, how do you plan to surprise your loved ones this Diwali? Let me know in the comments below!
We remember the day seven years back when were travelling in a Mumbai local trying hard to come up withe a name for our blog when struck us; Khushboo was always called a Jack of all Trades. The name stuck (with a slight modification, of course) and Minni was born. Six years, over 100 collaboration, lakhs of readers and several awards later; our love for blogging continues to grow. We continue to write on an eclectic range of topics from the funniest autorickshaw signs that we have spotted in Mumbai to how to bathe an elephant. We are true blue Munni of all Trades and we hope to continue on this joyride with our fellow Munnies and Munnas.
