Opinions and Rants. Opinionated Rants.

My friends and I are cheap as heck. We hate spending money mostly because we don’t have money. Yet we love to travel. Or at least we love the idea of traveling, since actually traveling is a problem. The last 3 years at university have been one failed plan after another to go on a university trip to the north.  But the trips came and went. There was always a reason (money, the reason was money) not to go. So when I got to know that Tripkar.com was taking a free trip to Shogran and Naran if you won their contest, I was all in. The trip had a myriad of sponsors, the main one being Stylo. Shout out to our sponsors for helping make this happen.  I submitted an entry to their all Pakistan blogging contest and surprisingly won. While both my friends got selected in the campus drives they held all across universities in Lahore. We were ecstatic, we were getting an AMAZING trip to the north. And the best part? IT WAS FREE. We were due to leave on the night of the 27...

So recently Harvest Tree has gotten somewhat popular in the world of online skin care retailing. A friend recommended it to me and I thought I would give it a try. The page boasted organic, handmade products. Honestly just reading the product names made my skin feel nicer.

They charge 200 for delivery. I ordered the stuff on the first night of Eid and didn’t hear back until three whole days after. Totally understandable, not everyone is as waila as me to be online all the time specially on Eid. Anyway, I got a response, and was told that I was still eligible for the 4 for 1000 deal. My cheapskate heart skipped a beat. I asked them about what face mask-soap com...

I am a student and thus I usually have too much month at the end of my money.  BeautyHooked Logo from beautyhooked.com And to make that money stretch out, I am always, ALWAYS on the look out for good deals. I came across BeautyHooked earlier this year and checked it out, it had all the A-list mehengoolay salons on it and I scoured the deals to find something which would fit my pocket but I found nothing that I could afford.  So two weeks ago, after my mom mistook my hair for the jharoo, I decided I  really  needed a haircut. I crossed my fingers and went to look at deals on BeautyHooked again. Just awein, in case something came up.  I went to the deals page and pressed crtl+f and wrote down the MOST I wanted to pay which was PKR 1,500. I have to say I found some pretty great deals.
