      last time used to compare prices.Then realise the discounts do not justify the savings over the expenses spend the parking,petrol :roll: & time consumed.


      but still look out for sales for higher cost items that could give more savings esp. kitchen appliances.

        ChiefKiasu:

        [quote=\"sleepy\"]I think I'm the opposite. Last time I will compare price before buying. Now I just buy almost everything from the big NTUC and urgent food stuff from the small Sheng Siong (incomplete stock) near my block. No more checking price.


        Congrats. You have graduated from the Super Aunty Club to the Rich Tai Tai Club... 😉

        I also no longer check the pricing. Too tiring to do so during weekly grocery trips. However, I am also not qualified to join the Rich Tai Tai Club :evil:[/quote]No la No la, not rich Tai Tai. Still can't bring myself to shop at Cold Storage.

        NTUC price is very reasonable so no need to check any further. Plus apply NTUC member got annual member rebate. Maybank credit card another 5% rebate. Still 精打细算 yo 😉

          :goodpost: yes fully agreed!
          Oredi time not euf!! @times see things needed @hm eg: soya sauce finishing
          just grab! I dun hv a helper n nvr believe in hving a helper, so is all abt time management.. So long as not shopping in cold storage or 7-11.., find shopping in Ntuc, shop n save, minimart.. Cost still reasonable as taking in consideration into petrol, parking &esp my 2monsters tagging along... Hee

            Base on what you guys have shared here, if there is a Super aunties test, think I will fail miserably. Yet my friends have been warning me that I am turning into a typical aunty. Maybe cos among my friends, I go grocery shopping more than I do fashion shopping and I am preferring wet markets to supermarkets.

              Few times i \"tried\" to shop for clothing or shoes.


              As i walked into Robinsons,i detoured fr. clothing/beauty section,to home appliances section,shopped for pots n pans or bedsheets instead :scratchhead: .

              at the end of my shopping session,i came back with bags of frying wok,bedsheet n towels. 🆒

              i always wonder how i could shop n buy clothing/shoes for myself in the past.How come i can't do it?hmm... i really bcame aunty liao :scared:
