Okay, confession time: I told myself I wasn’t going to spend a lot this month. You know, “be responsible, save money, only buy what you need” – all that good stuff. And then Amazon had to go and drop their Great Freedom Festival, and now my cart looks like I’ve robbed a tech store, a fashion outlet, and maybe half a kitchen department.
So yeah, here’s the deal, because if I’m tempted, I’m not going down alone.
The Big Picture? It’s Basically Discounts Everywhere
You know how sales sometimes feel like a scam? Like “up to 80% off” but it’s just on one random keychain nobody wants? This doesn’t feel like that.
Mobiles & Accessories – Up to 40% Off
I was eyeing a phone upgrade for months, and now it feels like Amazon is saying, “Go on, treat yourself.” Honestly, the accessories are the sneaky part, I didn’t plan to buy another pair of wireless buds but here we are.
Laptops, Tablets, Smartwatches – Up to 75% Off
If you’ve been holding onto that half dead laptop because new ones are pricey, this is probably the time to jump ship.
Home, Kitchen & Outdoor – Up to 80% Off
This section is a trap but like a good trap. I went in for one frying pan and came out with a 12 piece cookware set I swear I’ll use someday.
TVs & Appliances – Up to 65% Off
Honestly, I didn’t know I needed a bigger TV until I saw the price drop. And now my old one looks like a relic from the Stone Age.
Fashion & Beauty – 50% – 80% Off
Let’s be real, half my wishlist has been clothes I didn’t need. But when a top you liked last week is now half off, it’s basically saving money, right? (Don’t argue, let me live in this fantasy.)
Bonus Round – SBI Credit Card Deal
If you’ve got an SBI Credit Card or are paying with EMI, there’s an extra 10% discount which makes the “should I buy this?” question disappear faster than my willpower on this site.
Final Thoughts (aka excuses to spend money)
The Great Freedom Festival is basically Amazon throwing open the doors and saying, “Go on, fill your cart, we got you.” And I may have taken that very seriously.
If you’re smart, you’ll make a list, stick to it, grab the real deals, and leave. If you’re like me, you’ll add five more things you didn’t know you needed but somehow can’t live without now. Either way, it’s live, it’s big, and it’s very, very tempting.

(And if anyone asks, yes, every single thing in my cart was an “essential purchase.”)
