With hundreds of deals going live, Flipkart and Amazon are impossibly hard to navigate when these sales go live. During these sales, several pages showcase 'great' deals and offers with 'lowest prices', but chances are that you'll have a hard time locating the stuff that you really need to buy.

These are normally updated to reflect the latest deals. Another thing you can do is use the mobile apps that are relatively easier to navigate during these festive season sales.
4. Arrive early during the sale
The best deals can survive anything from a few minutes to an hour at the most. If you're lucky, it'll be available again the next day, but you don't want to take any chances. To make sure you grab those 'crazy' deals, you'll need to arrive early.
How early you ask? If the sale is going live at noon, you should be there at least five minutes early, and signed in to your account. If you've already set goals for a particular deal, you should keep that product page open, and refresh it just when the sale goes live.

7. Stay away from shady sellers, deals
If a deal seems too good to be true, it normally is. A word of caution during online festive season sales, stay away from such deals.
