I have to pat myself on the back that I have been fairly disciplined during the many initial months of WFH and didn't spend crazy money on online shopping. Then we started browsing alot for furniture in preparation of the move to LV. Most of the shopping were still done at brick and mortar shops. It was tough, we somewhat need to feel that sofa/ chair/ dining table/ shelf before we commit.
The online shopping frenzy only started when we were shifting. There were so many interesting little household gadgets to buy online. They didn't cost much (on its own) so I wouldn't feel the pinch if they turn out to be lemons. Interestingly, I have not regretted on the online purchases so far but instead had to throw away a lousy shoe rack that I bought from a shop. More interestingly, there seems to be always something to buy. How come my house is so lacking? Hohoho. It will be Redmart grocery today, another box/ shelf tomorrow, a door mat/ rug the day after. Aiyo.
The thrill from the buying is only so-so and it is difficult to feel the pinch with the electronic payments. But I have to tell you the immerse excitement of waiting and receiving the delivery. Hohoho. The parcels really make my day, even if they are groceries. Haha.
The we found Carousell while trying to find Zaky's bike. Hoho. Another joy. We also bought the 2nd hand Cookie's cage and tunnels online. With Zaky's new bike, Lil Shauna also declared that she needed a new and faster one. Ok, the number of bikes have officially outnumbered the people in our household. This calls for some clearance and for the 1st time in my life, I have sold off something via Carousell - Zaky's old Trek and my beloved Giant MTB.
We sold my Giant MTB for $200, slightly more than 50% of the price that we bought it for, after 3 years. These are the only pictures left.
