Giveaway: Visa Checkout x Indigo Great Canadian Summer Collection

I shop online a lot – for heavy things like books, for items not available in stores, and on sites that offer free shipping and free returns. Everyday I visit my fave online stores and peruse the new arrivals. It’s easy, convenient, and pretty addictive. Yet when it comes time to paying for the items in my virtual shopping cart, I tend to get frustrated. If I’m shopping on my phone, typing in my credit card details becomes an ordeal, and when I am comfortably curled up with my laptop, somehow my credit card is always in another room of the house, forcing me to go on a mini treasure hunt, when all I want to do is remain on my couch. The struggle is real, y’all.

I’ve considered saving my credit card details on my most-visited shopping sites, but have never felt like it was safe enough to do so. And so, I carried on fumbling with my card each time, cursing under my breath, wishing for an easier solution. Well, my prayers have been answered! Introducing Visa Checkout!

Visa Checkout provides a single account sign-in that can be used on all devices, making online shopping even more convenient and enjoyable. All you have to do to take advantage of Visa Checkout is:

– Create a username and password
– Enter your payment and shipping info (one time only!)
– Look for the Visa Checkout button when shopping online, enter your username and password, and you won’t have to worry about inputting your payment/shipping info!

Visa Checkout is available at many Canadian online retailers, with lots more joining each month. You can see the full list here: http://checkout.visa.com/shopping

And in case you’re paranoid about credit card fraud like me, Visa Checkout gives shoppers a secure way to pay online with Visa’s advanced security tools and Zero Liability for consumers in case of fraud!

But that’s not all! Until May 31, Canadians who use Visa Checkout on Chapters.Indigo.ca will receive 20% off their purchase! Currently, I’m obsessed with everything on Indigo’s site – from the colourful and inspirational “Be Amazing” Pillow, to the Great Canadian Summer collection that includes this Stacking Drink Dispenser and party-ready Mason Jars, to this beautiful Annie Seaton art print. There are also great cookbooks that will help me be the coolest hostess this summer. And I can stock up on these summer must-haves at 20% off by simply using Visa Checkout.

GIVEAWAY!!!

I truly think that this is a quick, safe, and convenient way to shop online, and I’m giving away $100 Visa gift card to help one of you get ready for summer with Visa Checkout and Indigo! Sounds good? See the details of the giveaway below!

– Tweet at us sharing why you are excited to use Visa Checkout (eg: “Hey @styleblogca, I am excited to use @VisaCA #VisaCheckout @chaptersindigo because _____”)
– The giveaway will close on May 22nd at 11:59 EST
– Giveaway Open to Canadian Readers, 18 and older
– Winner will be selected at random

Good luck and happy shopping!

VISA Everyday Shopper Program: Day 5 Giveaway!

19 January, 2012 Nelia

Sponsored Post

Wow…five days flew by so quickly, and this is my final post for the VISA Everyday Shopper Program. Here’s what I bought with $50 each day.

Day 2: Pizza Lunch ($4.15), H&M Dress ($45.14)
Day 3: Jimmy The Greek Lunch ($10.56), Twix ($1.68), Salad King Dinner ($28.45) 
Day 4: Tamarind Indian Lunch ($12.06), Cadbury Creme Egg Minis and Gum ($7.10), Longo’s Groceries ($26.47)
Day 5: Make-up Session at Sephora ($50)

From Day 1 to Day 5, I’ve spent a total of $234.16 on everyday items, and earned a total of 234 points, getting me a bit closer to that coveted new laptop! And all I had to do was buy the things I would purchase anyway, using my good old VISA. Obviously, this is only worth it, if you pay off your balance at the end of each month – I would never encourage you to go on wild shopping sprees using your credit card, if you couldn’t afford the things you’d purchased! So please, exercise caution.

With that said, since you’ve been so awesome, joining me on my spending/collecting adventure, I want to share the goodies…aka a $50 Prepaid VISA Card that you can use to buy your very own everyday items!

Rules of the giveaway after the jump!

VISA Everyday Shopper Program: Day 1

11 January, 2012 Nelia

Sponsored Post

When I was approached to participate in a VISA Everyday Shopper Program, I jumped right in. After all, I already have a rewards card, and I’m definitely no stranger to collecting those sweet, sweet reward points to get the things I want. It’s so easy! So starting today, I will blog and tweet about my daily buys for the next 5 working days! And at the end of it all…I will share how much closer I am to getting that coveted HP Envy Notebook (100,000 points).

So welcome to Day 1 of VISA Everyday Shopper Program. What did I buy? Drumroll, please:

Vitamin Water – $3.25
New York Fries – $3.68
Dinner at Sushi Inn – $13.38
Post Office Fees (for my new FUJI Instax Cam!!!) – $28.24
All for a grand total of…$48.55

Hope you weren’t expecting my purchases to be super exciting today…because they kinda weren’t. But I guess that’s the thing with daily spending – sometimes it’s the most mundane and random stuff, but rewards will keep on ticking regardless of whether you spent your money on a glazed donut (mmm…donuts!), or a Birkin. Though granted, you’ll get a lot more rewards if you buy a Birkin. But then again, why the heck are you even collecting reward points if you can afford a Birkin, amirite?

But I digress. One day down, four more to go. What will I buy tomorrow, and how many points will I earn, and what’s in it for you? Stay tuned to find out! And follow me on Twitter, as I’ll be tweeting about the program using hashtag #visaeveryday!
