The Internet has revolutionized our lives and has made things easier than before, to an extent that we hardly have to step out of the comfort of our homes to buy anything anymore. Be it, clothes, groceries, books, furniture or a plumber- the internet has more or less provided solace to all our problems. 
 And, now with <keyword id="477331" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Bakri-Eid">Bakri-Eid</keyword> being just days away, Muslims have lapped up the potential of the internet, especially sites like <keyword id="6360657" type="COMPANY" weightage="80" keywordseo="OLX">OLX</keyword>, Goat India and <keyword id="1028643" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Quickr">Quickr</keyword> and have taken the buying and selling of <keyword id="59746" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="goats">goats</keyword> online. 
 
There is a picture for reference. Goats of varying shapes and sizes are priced as cheap as 5,000 to as steep as 40,000 depending upon the breed and size of the goat. 
 
That’s not all. These websites have also introduced special goats to lure in customers to buy goats online. 
 
The only downside? While buying a goat online, breeders will neither be able to bargain for prices, nor will they be able to conduct a check on the goat for their satisfaction. 
 
That must be the reason why a farmer in Rajasthan was successful in selling a goat for a whopping Rs 2.5 lakh. 
 
Offline farmers aren’t pleased with this development, as expected. Majority of them not only fear that their business will suffer, but they also believe that buying a goat online doesn’t have the same charm as buying it in person. 
 
Yes, because you’d rather have a first-hand look at the life of the animal you’re about to kill than have it wrapped and delivered to you. 
 
While, I’m not sure how the delivery of the said product will be carried out, I would just like to take the opportunity to say this- if you’re a true lover of goats, buy it the old-fashioned way, by stepping out and participating in the walk of shame towards the market.

This Bakri-Eid, buying a goat is as simple as logging in

During Bakri-Eid, the unthinkable happened-<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/This-Bakri-Eid-buying-a-goat-is-as-simple-as-logging-in/articleshow/49076755.cms"> one could buy goats online</a> on the various e-commerce websites. 
 
At that moment, I was of the opinion that was it. That the internet couldn’t possibly have made our lives anymore easier by ensuring we get the option of buying almost everything at the touch of a click. 
 And, nor did I think in my wildest dreams that almost everything would include <keyword id="1713050" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Cow-dung-cakes">cow dung cakes</keyword>. 
 
Believe it or not, but the latest entrant to the world of internet shopping is<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=cow+dung"> cow dung </a>patties. And, they’re selling like hot cakes. 
 
Available widely on <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=e-commerce">e-commerce</a> websites such as <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=amazon">Amazon</a>, <keyword id="6357395" type="CITY" weightage="80" keywordseo="eBay">eBay</keyword>, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=shopclues">ShopClues</a> among others, these cakes are sold in packages containing two to eight pieces and can be bought at anything from Rs 100 to Rs 400, and with discounts, no less. 
 The patties comprising <keyword id="6362952" type="PERSON" weightage="80" keywordseo="cow">cow</keyword> poop mixed with hay and dried in the sun, made mainly by women in rural areas and used to fuel fires — have long been available in India’s villages and are mostly used for fires, heating, Hindu rituals or used in the garden. 
 
Thanks to these online retailers, they’re now finding their way to the ever-increasing urban population for whom accessibility to these cakes are not that easy. 
 
And, surprisingly, customers are lapping them up. The customer reviews on the e-commerce sites highlight how seriously the product is being taken by them. 
 While Pushkar Bendre in his <keyword id="18635" type="CITY" weightage="80" keywordseo="Amazon">Amazon</keyword> review clarifies that the product is indeed ‘shit’, much to the relief of every other potential buyer, he was unable to pinpoint whether it was ‘cow shit or ‘bull shit.’ 
 Not amused by Bendre’s review, another customer who went by the name ‘A B’ requested the seller in his review to add gow mutra (cow pee) as well. He further asked the customers to not mock the listing as cows are sacred. He then proceeded to warn the seller that it should be seen that the <keyword id="603261" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="80" keywordseo="Cow-Dung">cow dung</keyword> cakes are not destroyed while in transit. 
 
However, a majority of the customers have a common concern- that of authenticity of the ‘cow dung cakes’ and have asked Amazon to provide a guarantee card stating that it is not buffalo dung.

Believe
it or not: Now, you can buy cow dung cakes online in India!

5. Gudi Padwa Weekend (8th to 10th April)

6. Ram Navami weekend (14th-17th April)
