SHOPPING NO MORE FOR MYSELF

Recently I have been talking about shopping a lot, really a lot!!!  My shopping list is growing longer and longer each day, be it...  a breast pump, feeding bottles, cooler bag, sterilizer, food warmer, infant bathtub, 0-3 months/3-6 months clothing, baby cot, bumper set, and the list just goes on and on...  Excitement of shopping has diversified to all baby stuff!




My long lost love G-Shock, baby!  It has 'shock resistance' and I can't 'resist' looking at it every time I pass any outlets selling this model.  I'm shocking in love with it!!!


Hubby and I went to IBEX last Friday.  Hm...  Meet with a friend who is going to deliver her first baby in October, who also went to another baby expo last month in Mid Valley.  She commented that this round IBEX of KLCC has lesser booths and price ranges are more expensive.  In fact, I'm quite disappointed too IBEX (although this is the very first time I go to a baby expo, it doesn't seem to be an event I'm expected to be in).  Perhaps, the low crowd is due to Raya Season, the Malays are busier with their fasting and preparations for Raya.

We have decided on some items to buy from the IBEX, just simply I'm kinda lazy to go for another baby expo in November.  I'm about to due by that time, I estimate another 2 weeks to go, I'm not sure if I will have the energy to explore and shop and I dislike to shop last minute and in rush.

I've decided to buy the Avent manual pump with a come along bottle storage.  Normal price is RM269.00, now selling at RM199.  Although a little too expensive than buying online, with other purchases from Avent, the bargain is still consider good. 

Another item that I've decided to buy is Avent feeding bottles.  I only intend to buy 260ml/9oz bottles as I see it pointless to have the 125ml/4oz bottle, in despite it's better to hold during feeding time at newborn stage.  Well, Ah Bee is not going to hold the bottle at such an early stage, not a problem at all!  Deal!


At first, I was against pacifying Ah Bee with a soother.  After research online for the benefits of a soother, let's try using it for a minimal period.  Soother actually has the effect of calming and comfort a baby whenever she feels no good.  It also helps in a baby brain development, having to say that a baby has better quality rest which eventually leads to better brain development.  Not sure how true is the online findings, no harm trying, I guess. 


Little Bean is having good bargain too.  The combination of its sterilizer and food warmer was at RM199.00, later lower down to RM169.00 and now it's selling at RM150.00.  This is the best priced item that I've seen so far, so it's definitely in my shopping list.


This drying rack looks so hi-tech, a spinning drying rack.  Hahaha...  It looks comprehensive, practical and nice price - RM69.90 - 20%.

I've been seeing The First Year infant bathtub for quite some time and actually locked my mind buying it, although it costs a bit - RM169.90.  It's sold in the fair at 30% discount and what am I waiting for?!  This is it, my choice and it's on good discount!  Yay!!!
Guess what...  I found another better bargain from Sweet Cherry, almost half of its' price!!!  Simply because The First Year is imported from the western and Sweet Cherry is imported from 'wherelse but China'.  Hahaha...  Jusco is selling at RM69.90 - 20%


When there is a bulk of things to buy, every cent counts.  I will stick to my principle - moderate and simple.

I'm freaking out studying the shopping list, thousand of things lining up for me to put in the cart.  The next coming up is bedding...
