 Hi everyone, welcome to my blog! Today I want to share with you my shopping habits and how I find the best deals online and offline. I love shopping for tech products like phones, tablets, or electrical items for my project. I also buy commodities like baby bottle wash, cloth, knick knacks for my little sister. Here are some of the tips and tricks I use to save money and time.

Online shopping: I use two apps mainly, Shopee and Lazada. They have a lot of discounts and promotions, especially during festive seasons. I always compare prices and reviews before I buy anything. Sometimes I can get free shipping or vouchers if I spend a certain amount. Because many people can sell the same  products, if i see a product that i really wanted sells for more than i expected, i can try to find it on other shops with a better price. But sometimes, what you see is too good to be true, if its too cheap it could very well be a scam. Beside, the algorithm of them also recommends me better or the same type of products so i can compare, i once was about to buy this shirt, but then i saw this shirt from the same brand that looks better on me, so i bought the latter one. One tip is to prepaid your order through your card, so you can have buyer's protection from these sites, it lowers the risk of getting scammed and also more convenient if you cant show up to pay money with "cash on delivery" type shipments.

Physical shopping: Sometimes I like to go to the mall and browse around. I usually shop for food and clothes there. I like to try on different outfits and see how they look on me. I also enjoy eating at different restaurants and cafes. When I shop at the mall, I always bring card with me. I also have a budget in mind and stick to it. I don't buy things that I don't need or want. It is not possible to get a deal at the mall since everything has a fixed price but I can ask the sellers if there is any outlet deal or sale programs. These are some of the phrases that help me get a better deal.

So these are my shopping habits and how I save money and time. I hope you enjoyed reading this blog post and learned something new. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to leave them below. Thanks for reading and happy shopping!
