Apparently, Singles’ Day (Nov 11) is a thing. It started in China’s Nanjing University in 1993, but thanks to Alibaba founder Jack Ma, who transformed the anti-V-day event into one of the world’s biggest shopping online sales, it’s now anticipated and celebrated every year by millions of happy shoppers.
So if you’re in the mood to save big bucks (by spending a little here and there) — and if you haven’t made plans for the weekend — read on below for where to shop on Nov 11.
Deliveroo
Unfortunately, you can only get Popeyes from Deliveroo during this sale, but at least you’ll only be spending $1. With that, you’ll get a one-piece spicy fried chicken, garlic rice, mashed potatoes with Cajun gravy, and a cup of Pepsi (from 2:11pm to 4:11pm).
Ezbuy
Just for Nov 11, the site is going discount crazy with $1 items, flash deals of up to 90 percent off, free shipping offers, and loads more.
Hotels.com
Already planning next year’s dream destinations? Check out the hotel booking site’s shopping carnival for 50 percent discounts, up to 25 percent off luxury five-star hotels and more.
Iuiga
In an effort to encourage conscious consumption (instead of mindless spending), the homegrown lifestyle and homeware brand is advocating for customers to only buy essential products. All you gotta do to get a 20 percent promo code is play an interactive game on its “Buy Lesser, Buy Better” page and apply it to check out three items or less.
Lazada
The e-tailer’s “Online Revolution” features sales that go all the way up to 90 percent off, as well as more than 110 flash deals and vouchers to be won and spent on everything from beauty products to electronic gadgets to food and beverages. Plus, it also has an English version of Taobao on its site.

Shopback
The cashback site offers cashback for purchases from places like Asos, Qoo10, Shopee, Deliveroo, Taobao, and Expedia. Think of it as saving even more money when you buy stuff. Sort of.
