Business, Shopping

Who doesn’t like receiving free items? Whenever I go shopping, my eyes would instantly pop out seeing big flashy signs on the store shelves labeled “SALE” or “DISCOUNT” or “Buy 1 Take 1” offers. And as much as I try to veer away from these “evil” signs, they have already…

Do you prefer buying environment-friendly products over those that are not? Somebody recommended to me a cellphone brand which supports Greenpeace Foundation, an international organization which aims for environmental protection and conservation and promoting peace.

Business, finances, Shopping

Whenever I buy something, particularly items or gadgets that will be used for a long time, I always check the warranty. For me, products with longer warranty period have an edge over the others. Any buyer who values his money would examine if a warranty is reliable. One thing he…

I’m not really that environmentally-conscious as a consumer. But sometimes, I do tend to favor eco-friendly products than those that are not. I would be glad to see some environment-friendly products which provide information about the materials used (recycled paper, environmentally-safe chemicals, etc.).

How do you choose your footwear? Is it based on fashion or comfort… or both? For me, it should be both. I don’t want walking around in cute stylish shoes with my feet aching from blisters, or feeling uncomfortable and tired after few minutes of hitting the streets. Thankfully, I…
