In this pandemic, I realized when you buy a product, make sure it's worth your money. It is something that you needed the most, for example, a smart tv. Did you know that smart tv is one of the gadgets for online learning?

In my younger days, I consider shopping for my goods as a past time.. some sort of a "me" time, where I can go out of the house and enjoy the mall ambiance and scout for goods that I need. I also didn't consider the amount I spent, even for items that I don't need.

Now that most of us have opted for reusable shopping bags instead of plastic shopping bags that harm our wildlife and environment, what about reusable produce bags? How can we fit these into our shopping trips and what types of produce bags are available?

Why do we need reusable produce bags?
Do you remember when you could get fish and chips wrapped in newspaper? Back in the day we used cardboard boxes and even paper bags to carry home our purchases from the shops. Now everything is plastic! However, given that we understand the problems of plastic shopping bags, most of us have a boot full of reusable shopping bags that we take back and forth to the supermarket.

My brother and I went to SM San Jose del Monte to buy a Uratex Queen size (4 x 60 x 75) mattress and other bed accessories. He pity us because we slept in a single layer mat and folded cardboard on the floor. Now, the problem is how to bring the items home. We do not have a car. The jeepneys would not agree even if we pay an extra fee. It will disturb the passengers who get in and out of the jeep. Someone suggests hiring a van or taxi. So, we choose a van because of its comfort and space. Then, I paid more than 300.00 for 14.5 kilometers to take us home with the items.

You need to keep your family well-clothed while respecting the financial goals that you (and hopefully you partner, too) set for the family.

I’m an online shopper, I admit it! But, it doesn't mean as a "social butterfly" kind of a stay-at-home mom. It happens that there are things I prefer to buy online.
