Big bazaar is conducting a kabadiwala drive to enhance their sale. Kabadiwala drive is nothing but to exhort people to bring their old house hold items including the old clothes for exchange. Here the word 'exchange' is a cheating misnomer!.
On delivery of kabadi, the shop will give exchange coupons which can be redeemed against four times value of purchase, i.e., if you got a exchange coupon of Rs 25.00, you need to purchase goods worth Rs 100.00. Also you cannot exchange the coupons for all the items available in big bazaar.
You cannot exchange coupons for electronic, food item etc. mainly the store is aiming to sell their merchandise in apparel, plastics etc against kabadi. That means you are taking back kabadis of big bazaar at a price!!.
The kabadis are priced according to items like clothes, leather, other etc. When you deliver the kabadis to bigbazaar, they will try to bargain with you saying that kabadis are not upto mark etc etc!!ultimately to make you happy, they will copiously give exchange coupons which will result in pocket/walletruptcy of your financials(higher the exchange coupon value, higher the sales big bazaar gets!!).
An innocent purchaser will buy the things thinking that he can exchange all the coupons earned by selling kabadis, but once at the billing counter, the indifferent billing guy informs of the trick of exchang coupon, customer may be embarrassed and will continue buying by losing a lot.
The whole thing is a waste.
