Shopper! Beware When You Shop!

As my course was going to start, my mum and I went to do the last minute shopping. Yup, it was really food-stocking day! Plus, I also needed a beautiful frying pan to cook (^^). Therefore, really needed to shop till I dropped.


Well, as me and my mum was busy stocking food in a supermarket, we came across the food racks and saw the price of my favourite peanut butter, RM 9.95. To be honest, usually, the plain peanut butter is a little bit cheaper. But, this time, all the peanut butters were the same price. So, we chose the peanut butter with strawberry. However, we walked by another section. There was the plain peanut butter lying above the price of RM 8.60. Of course, I wanted to save a little money, so I changed to the plain peanut butter. So, before I paid, I went to the barcode scanner to check the price. To my surprise, the machine displayed the price of RM 9.95 instead of RM 8.60. Hmmm, it was really annoying, but, I went to take another bottle and scanned it again. Finally, the machine displayed RM8.60.


Peanut Butter, my favourite! But still, have to be careful while doing shopping!



Maybe you would say that this was really small matter, but, I was able to save about RM 1.35. To rich people, RM 1.35 was a small amount. But, some people only made about this amount a day! No kidding! So, as a wise consumer, we have to be very careful while purchasing goods. In my case, the fault fell on the negligence of supermarket's staffs to update the barcode.

Okay, these are my few tips while doing shopping:
  1. Make a shopping list.{Save time and save petrol-don't have to go for 2nd round.}
  2. Try to remember the previous price of the same goods that you have bought.
  3. Check the expiry date{A lot of people really ignore this important point}
  4. Check the price { This is the must!}
  5. When you pay, check the cashier display{Because sometimes, they still forget to update the latest discounted price into the cashier.}
{Even though these tips are quite common, not many people remember to use them while doing their shopping chores} Anyway, Happy Shopping!!!!!!

Blossoming Cactus Symbolises Luck!

Cactus is such an unique plant! It can survive in the hottest environment, such as the desert. This is mainly due to its flawless "skin" to prevent the vapourization of water and its strong root to nourish its "thorny body". As ex-Bio student during my secondary school, I also learned that some cacti can actually blossom. The outcome of its blossom is just simply amazing! - Magnificent Flowers that take your breath away!


Well, personally, I quite like cactus because of its cool look with cruel thorns. This is how it looks when it does not blossom. But, when it blossoms, you just can't stop loving this "Icy Beauty Queen". If you don't believe me, I will let her speaks for herself! I bet you are already enthralled by her beauty!

When she starts to blossom, there is no stopping her to capture the spotlight!

People said that "Good things come in 3?!"{From ANTM 8,Brittany's Photo Shot}


The flowers really bright up my day! Who would have known that "Icy Beauty Queen" can have 3 of the warmest hearts(^^)? By the way, I just lucky to see them blossoming at the same time! How lucky!!!
