Not A Shopaholic

A few years back, when it comes to buying computer and phone gadgets and accessories, we have to wait until we go to Malaysia and buy there. There used to be a big difference with the Malaysian price and that of the Thai price. But just recently, when we went to Malaysia and shop at their famous IT Mall ( Low Yat Plaza), we found out that their prices nowadays are quite comparable to that of Thailand.

Here in Hat Yai alone, there are already several IT shops that sells gadgets like netbooks, tabs and ipod nano headphones at a very reasonable price. So, we’re glad that we don’t have to go very far to buy all our IT gadgets and gizmos.

I’m declaring the month of August ( after my birthday) as a No Eating Out month for our family. One of the reasons is for us to keep to our monthly budget. Eating out more often ( as we have regular guests coming in and out) has strained our budget and not to mention has increased my waistline. LOL! We’ve felt the strain when the used to be affordable restaurants that we frequent have become not-so-cheap anymore. The usual amount of our bill has increased by 50% or even 100%. It must either be because of their price increase or we’ve been ordering few more dishes.

Anyways, next month , my aim is to cook all our meals for the month and if guests comes, then they have to ‘tolerate’ my home cooked meals because we will surely be inviting them to eat in the house. LOL!

Who knows after this 30 day challenge, we could save up money and do rv loans or maybe I would even lose a lot of weight. Impossible?… Hmm.. yeah, I think that’s too much too..
