Newsletter Dec 14 - A Week in Your Life...

In seven days, we probably live through a spectrum of events, emotions, activities, experiences in our day-to-day life. So this time, the idea was to weave a week of our life with what MetroMela offers (which is usually a whole lot of time-saving guides, tips and info!)

So, this is MetroMela's take on what your week would look like. Ofcourse to cover seven reviews was possible only because dear Trupti wrote as many! Also, every week, we see huge additions to our Metro's Best, all thanks to Prashant, our good 'ol reliable MRA. Hmm, I think my next blog is going to about our team. Oh yes, that sound good.

Ok ok, without further ado, here is...

Newsletter Nov. 29 - Living Well, Keeping Fit and Shopping Cheap!

One of the oldest, most popular best-buy markets in Pune goes by the name of Hong Kong Lane near Deccan. Its a tiny lane, 6 feet wide and half a km long, with shops on either side. Here you find everything from bags to bangles, shoes to CDs. Its always packed and well-lit and on entering a sensing of excitement fills one up from the sheer choice, variety and prices!
