Shopping for Eid

Tweet

While Ramadan is the time for fasting and prayers for our Muslim brothers and sisters, Eid is the time for festivities. Eid Al Fitr will start on the eve of Aug 18 Saturday and a lot of stores are giving great discounts on food, clothes, jewelries, electronics and more. Eid can be similarly compared to Christmas for Christians. 

There are different night markets or souq around Dubai showcasing different items from other Muslim countries

or opt for the convenience of malls like Diera City Center, Mall of the Emirates or IBN Battuta to shop for your Eid requirements. 

I'll check both just in case.

It's Canada Day on Cobone!

Happy Canada Day (July 1)!

I'm not in (nor from) Canada but was able to celebrate with Cobone's Tim Horton's deals.

Deal 1: 10 AED or $2.70

Deal 2: 9 AED or $ 2.45

I bought 3 of deal 1 and 2 of deal 2 (total of 5 vouchers) and used 3 of it yesterday at Tim Horton's Diera City Center, Dubai. 

No hassle except for they run out of cream for the iced beverages. Still it was a great bargain (more than 50% off).

Hurry offer is until today (July 7) but the voucher can still be used for 2 (or 3) more months. And they have Deal 3 and 4 to choose from.
