Shopping for a Brand or Shopping for Wisely

What do you think if you want to buy a bag? brand and price or quality and function of these bags?

When the fashion world began to grow, many brands are popping up and of course the price is fantastic as well as shopping centers are always updating their displays.

One day, I was shopping with my friends, we found an interesting boutiques and look around the goods on display, Items in the store are branded goods with a fantastic price. I only intend look around without intending to buy something, but I was surprised when I saw my friend bought a handbag that despite being a discount but the price is still expensive. So I asked her why she bought the bag at a price which I could buy ten bags of other brands.. the reason is quite simple ” the latest models and price are discounted”.

For some women, shopping is a MUST, and it is yes..!. But there is some kind of woman, there is a fashion enthusiast and branded goods, and there is also who shopping wisely. Spending branded goods was not wrong, but it would be nice if matched by spending wisely.

If you are in an unstable economic situation,  it would  be nice if you start thinking of shopping wisely. Why should we be wise to shop? By shopping wisely we can learn many things, the following is my experience:

1. Avoid debt.

Make a shopping list before you are in the store, do not buy things that you do not need, bring cash, and try not to use a credit card, use credit  cards sometimes make us forget that next month we have to pay the bills. I wonder why women like to use a credit card to buy a handbag that costs hundreds of dollars and headaches later next month, how to pay it.

2. Look at quality rather than prestige.

My custom to buy an item is the attention to all aspects of the goods, such as handbags, the main things I notice about these bags is how long I can wear them without having out of date and the price in accordance with the budget and of course the quality of the goods.  Indeed the views and admiration will be drawn to you when you wear a branded bag with the latest model.. wait  a few weeks later when the brand and the latest model was launched, your bags will automatically become an ordinary items.

3. Be grateful.

At least  I’m grateful to still be using my money for things that are useful,  you ever imagine people in distress or hunger and no money at all? you are more fortune than they are.. right?. 

Well.. shopping for a brand or shopping for wisely, all depending on your policy.. :)

  1. The above three are wise advise. We may but branded things as long as we need it and have money. If not, we must avoid debt to have it.

  2. I have never found much sense in expense handbags. I would rather have that cash in a cheap bag, than, the bag itself.

  3. I’m really not into shopping especially when it concerns me,lol! I usually shop for my kids. The one who shops for me is my hubby as I don’t want to buy anything for myself,as much as possible,lol!
    Great tips you have here reiny!

  4. Buying branded goods is good. But sometimes there are least known brands that have good quality. For me, I would prefer the latter because of its cheap price.

  5. NIce and very useful advice thanks for sharing such a nice information

  6. oh nice

  7. It saves me a lot of money because I can accept no brand or less well-known bags.

  8. Quality along withe the price are the two main factors before buying anything.

  9. Good and nice tips for saving money.

  10. Great share.

  11. If we are grateful for what we have we buy more carefully.

  12. I totally agree with the credit card thing. It is definitely pointless to be in-debt if you have the money to pay for your purchase. Besides, the interests may cost more than the item that you’ve purchased in some cases.
