Learning To Be A Frugal Shopper

It was only this morning when we were all talking about the GST (Goods and Services Tax), that it suddenly dawned on me that whether we like it or not, we now have to pay extra for almost everything. Being a retiree, from now on I must learn to be a frugal shopper and be disciplined about it. I have to refrain from buying items on the impulse, and need to ask myself whether I really need them or not.

There are some items which I do need to buy. I do need a pair of good quality walking shoes for my morning walk. The one I wear every morning is really worn out and I need to get a new pair before the old one gives way. Another item I need to buy is some casual wear for my daily attire. I too am thinking of getting a good quality juicer or a blender. I need to check out the products, the brand and compare the prices too.

Lately, I have been hearing a lot about iprice one-stop online shopping which is becoming very popular and I think most of you would have heard about it. Anyway, I have bookmarked it a few months earlier and I checked out the products to see if I can find what I am looking for and of course the price to fit my budget.

I discovered that iprice has been revamped with additional features such as categories as well as more shops
iprice Malaysia offers an array of the latest and the best coupons, discounts, promotions and voucher codes on a single avenue in Malaysia for shoppers before they browse on their favourite online shopping stores. What I like about iprice is it helps people like me to save more by posting free coupons and free vouchers and do not require any membership.

  3. For sure we retirees need to learn to s-t-r-e-t-c-h our dollars. Since I've retired I've purchased some good appliances to help me with my health and cooking including a good juicer and a good blender.
