So here is the first ever contest that I am holding on this blog and I am quite excited about it. I hope I will manage to pass on some of the excitement to you as well. After all, would it not be fun if you got some money to spend on your next travel or purchase?
The Deal
The contest is simple and fun for travel lovers. Visit the Groupon India site and pick up the best travel deal that you can find. Leave the link to the deal and your brief comments on why you liked it as a comment on this blog. The comment has to be on a travel deal at Groupon India website to be eligible. It can be from any city in India.
What is Up for Grabs?
Two Groupon India Vouchers
1X5000 Rupees
1X3000 Rupees
You can use the vouchers to spend on any deal (and not just travel) on the site. If the cost of the deal exceeds, the difference has to be paid. If the cost of the deal is less the balance will remain in your account to spend later. The coupons are valid only for Groupon India site.

For a working person like me who stays in mumbai and barely gets 4-5 off days in one go, This offer is almost perfect. Since GOA is very near by and off course unwinding on the Agonda beach infront of lovely sea waves , sipping beer and completely relaxing and staying in the Huts , making it an unbeatable offer.. Need to say anything more? 🙂
