Errand and Budget

March 13, 2022 17:14pm

Happy sunday readerist! May we all be blessed by God today and the rest of our lives.

Do you go at the city and run some errand with exact amount only on your pocket? Me no, especially when doing groceries, coz I am shy to cancelled some transactions coz I run out of budget. So this is one of my reason that I want to have my own money.

Today is my monthly errand to the city, after breakfast, my partner told me that after cleaning the house, I took Adrielle to shower so I can go early.

So I follow his command, clean the house and took Adrielle to shower and I get showered too, then steam the rice no need to cook for viand coz we still have some left over fish from yesterday. Afterwards, I eat a little so I wont be hungry when I went to the city then, after a series of conversation with Adrielle coz she wants to go with, she agreed that I will just buy her a toy, then I go. My budget going to the city was ₱2300($43), I need to pay half of our electric bill, buy for Adrielles birthday gift to attend then groceries.

While on the trike, the strong rain pours but we have no choice but to go, then when we reach the city only light rainshowers, and I ask the driver to drop me on the church, so I can visit even there was no Mass already, I just pray before my journey on the city starts.

The first stop after church was 7/11, I cashIn thru my shopee pay, I will pay our electric bill thru my shopee pay coz I am running after the 60coins cashback, sayang din, I can used it with my e-loading business laking tulong din, and thanks to Kelzy for sharing that idea.

Next stop was looking for Adrielles gift to her cousin who will celebrate 7th birthday on the 16th of March, and Adrielle was one of the 7th stuffed toys but since I have tight budget, so I need to canvass first out of the 3 thrift shop in the city and it took me hours, and since almost everythings is pricey, I choose the very small one, I know its not about the price naman eh, its the thought and effort that you attend and give something from your heart,

Finally the last errand was buying our basics needs and foods of Adrielle. I take a look at every item that I am putting on my basket, coz I need to look for my budget, tho I have my extra money with me but I need atleast not too much, I only get some daily used toiletries, coz these are the very important things, then I put my attention in Adrielles everyday consumption(biscuits, some chips, yakult) I am not into buying at the sari sari store from time to time, thats why i always prioritize her needs.

Look what I got about ₱1000+ already, without her milk and my partners budget is only ₱1000, so I need to get from my own pocket from the remaining balance.

Then, I have bought some important things and I already used my secret money.

This are some of it, a knife co our current knife has no point at all coz I broke it, sponge, paper for adrielle coz I want her to start how to write properly, then a pencil too the black fat pencil, so she won't get tired immediately when she writes.

Then as promise with Adrielle that I will buy her toy, coz she was asking for the ballon shapes but i don't find it worth to spend so I choose toys for her that I am sure she will loved.

Upon describing her the toy that I bought for she was so excited to hold and play with it, but for safety purposes, i wash it first and wipe before handed it to her, and she was very happy and show it to her tatay and immediately played it.

Then the last thing I bought was Adrielle undies, she had undies but others are no garter at all, and she used at night time only and besides I seldom bought her coz we can't afford too and kids grew fast so its not advisable also to buy from time to time.

Then I bought slice bread and pizza for our snacks.

Thats all!
