5 Impractical Wants =)

Hello mga kapatids,,, How's your day? =)

My mind is very active on imagining beautiful things but very impractical to purchase, siguro pag sobra sobra na ang pera ko saka pa lang ako makakabili nito o kaya pwede one of them as a reward sa 52 week money challenge hehehe,,, sa ganito talaga ako pag feeling ko deprived este frugal ako hehehe,,,

1. Voluspa Candles

Super bango ng candles nila,,, I would really want to have this kaso pricey for a 500nok tapos candle lang pero ang heaven ng scent talaga, sarap ng ganito sa house, very relaxing at nakakasosyal ang amoy =)

 2. Clarisoni Mia 2

I love cleaning my face as in mahilig ako sa facial wash and scrub, mahilig din ako magpafacial pero since ang mahal dito I didn't attempt to visit any spa parlor, actually I can categorize this as practical thing kasi mas malaki pa din ang savings kesa magpa facial di ba, kaso I have other things to prioritize kaya sa ngayon kamay ko na lang muna panghilamos,, pero sana mapag ipunan ko to,, I really want to have one.

3. Fuji Film X100S

I am jealous to other bloggers na ang gaganda ng pictures. I want a camera na compact pero mala dslr ang output. Actually di ako techy kaya I just ask my husband to research for a good quality camera na cute lang hehehe,, pero budget wise e last on my list ito dahil mahalia sya hehehe,,, my phone camera will do at the moment hahaha! =)

4. Heima Sonja Desk ( a blogging desk)

I just want a blogging desk similar to this and a nice and comfortable chair too, but because we have only a tiny space baka di ko maachieve ito kahit makakita pa ako ng mura. I realized na iba pala talaga pag may working table sa bahay kasi sa singapore yung room namin may table ako e, favorite na spot ko nga yun, i miss that table kahit simple lang yun we bought it sa isang furniture shop lang sa singapore nung 2007 hehehe bagong dating pa lang kami noon I remember na uso na ang laptop nun pero we chose to buy a desktop kaya namin nabili yung table na yun hehehe and it served us well until umalis kami sa SG iniwan na nga lang namin kasi di naman pwede madala hehehe,

5. Matstone Slow Juicer

This is my most priority among the others because Health is Wealth ika nga. I really want to have this juicer, pricey(?), yes but I want me and my husband to be healthy. Mahilig ako sa juice e pero di ako mahilig yung fruits na kakainin pero pag jinuice na sya gusto ko hehehe ang arte lang ba hehehe,, problem lang is I need to order online at takot ako sa tax pag pinaship.

Kayo, any nice things in mind? Masarap din mag muni muni ng mga bagay na gusto natin, nakaka inspire din at nakaka happy hehehe...

Enjoy! =)

Money Saving, Bonding Moment and Mind Exercising :)

Hello gurls!!!

I posted the other day about the 52 Week Challenge, I decided also to do a smaller amount version of it aside from the 50 increment and I called it Palengke Challenge where I will save an increment of 10 Krone from our weekly palengke budget :) Because of these 52 week Money Challenges I need to think of how can I save in many ways. 

One way is to have a fun/recreation which is a "saving friendly" like board/tile games etc. 


Rummikub is a tile game that will really exercise your mind, and another fun way to bond with your loved ones, unlike movie marathon and staying online on internet it doesn't require much electricity o di ba you can save pa at the same time your having fun.

here's an explanation from wikipedia

All tiles in play must be arranged in sets with at least three tiles. The two valid set types are called runs and groups.
Runs are composed of three or more, same-colored tiles, in consecutive number order. For example- red 6, 7, 8 and 9. A 1 may not follow a 13.
Groups are three or four same-value tiles in distinct colors. For example- red 3, blue 3, black 3 and orange 3.

You can rearrange the set of tiles na naitira na himdi katulad ng scrabble na hindi mo pwede baguhin yung words. Tapos yung unang makakaubos nung tiles nya yun ang winner. Pakiresearch na lang kung magulo hirap ako mag explain hehehe,, may nakita din akong online game ng rummikub if you want to try, I've tried din online pero mas masaya pag with family or friends saka para maachieve din yung saving-friendly recreation hehehe. 


Aside from this, I also implemented a zero spending weekend/day once in a while in order for us to achieve our goals. :)
And if I am tempted to buy something I will look for a good read on savings sa internet, basta mga tips on savings bet na bet ko yan. 
Any other suggestions on savings and budgeting? 

Enjoy the rest of the week!!! :)
