Diapers MANIAC


**Backdated post 25 July' 08**


See, how many diapers did I get just because it was having Promo and at the same time got free gift. Well, in order to get a free gift, I need to buy at least SEVEN packets of diapers to get one free gift.

From this pic, it tells I bought 21 packets of diapers which means it cost me RM420. Of coz, all these are not Totally for my Boy. Out of 21 packets I only bought 4 packets :) and out of 4 packets, ONLY two belongs to my Tan Sri as the others two is for Twins Bro.

Everyone in the shopping mall gave me a kind of look...she must be crazy or she must be having sextuplets. Hahaha... This is the only time I bought so much of diapers. My car booth are full of diapers until now!! - as a fren of mine still haven't collect from me.

Once a upon a time, I have this craziness of buying Milk Formula, as I was told it will be increased sooner or later. So, 5 mths back I bought SEVEN tins of 1.8kgs milk formula and TWELVE tins of 400gms milk formula. So, can u imagine how much stocks I have? I think, these formula at least can lasted me till end of this year. As I just started Enfagrowth for My Boy.

Here is a summary of being a MOM

Becoming a MOM means:
  • you will rush to buy cheap diapers when on promo
  • very alert when the milk formula is goin to increase
  • check out the newspaper (almost everyday) where there is a sale on diapers/milk formula
  • stock up what you think is gonna be increased
  • lookout for sale on Toys... and more toys
  • get info from frens either bloggers/forum on anything that's cheap/promo
  • getting FREE stuff especially diapers samples
  • seeing others kids having tis and tis, which make your heart shake shake, u also wan to get it for your kid/s
  • entering contest to gets rewards
  • How can I forget WAREHOUSE sale... you will never missed!
Basically, after becoming a mother your focus has switch to Kid/s stuff. Don't you agreed with me? No more fancy, fancy clothes and shoes for yourself. Sigh..

Most of the time when you shop in the shopping mall, you might start of with your stuff BUT ended up in Children's Cashier! All the plastics bags are from the Children's Departmental Store!

I never believe this quote when my colleagues told me this "Once you have kids, you will shop more for your kids rather than yourself". I guess she was totally Right.

- i dont take thousands of pictures, i dont join any contest, i dont buy cheapest formula (cos need cash in medical hall) and normally i use cc.

yeah, you're right! I only eye the things in the mall for my baby.

I wanted to buy diapers in bulk when there's a sale. However, my hubby forbade me from buying... he claimed that no extra space to store that. :(

My Lil' Monster said...

I normally dun buy diapers in BULK but since it was having promo and I WILL NOT be buying 7 packs that's why I try to find someone to share with.

Mana tau, all of them olso want the free gift, so ended up buying for them. But is really a nightmare trolley-ing the diapers to my car!! Thank goodness Hubby never er-or er-or seeing me buying so much co'z I got a good reason ma.
