This is probably the last time I’m going to get to shop before I start work. My tentative budget tells me that after accounting for loan payments and other stuff, I’ll be down to $500 per month. It might sound a lot for most students but I used to have $1.5K disposable income per month during my internship+catsitting days. Please don’t ask me why I’m poorer as a working adult compared to being a student. -sigh- I’m really feeling the pressure to start cutting down on my random expenses… once i finish my shopping for work-related stuff. >_<
Met up with Hui Chee (finally!) for a quick, cheap dinner at RC foodcourt since we both felt so broke after our respective wallet-emptying graduation trips. We ended up going workwear shopping and I got a little mad at G2*** since the ongoing sale + 15% late night shopping discount made it pretty worthwhile.
Boring Workwear Loot:
- G2*** Black Skirt $49 $29.20
- G2*** Black Pants $59 $ 35.10
- G2*** Brown Pants $49 $33.10
- G2*** Striped B&W short-sleeved top $59 $40.10
- B*si White Skirt with ribbon $39 $33.10
Total: $170.60
My debit card points paid off though since I managed to redeem $60 worth of vouchers, reducing total damage to $110.60 for 5 pieces of very versatile workwear, i.e. an average of $22.10 per item. I think it was a brilliant bargain. =)
Now, it’s really time to stop. Grrr.
