Cheap but Useful
Good day everyone! This article is my entry in writing prompt challenge initiated by @MoonTrader entitled : "#WritingPrompt2: Isn't expensive, yet means a lot".
These are the things that I considered as cheap yet so valuable and very useful in my daily life.
First is this mini fan I bought from shopee.
As far as I can recall, I bought it for like less then $2.0 USD. Apologies, I tried to search it from my purchase history but having hard time because I bought it way back 3 years ago.
The main purpose why I ordered it is for my youngest son (still a baby back then). It is always annoying and tiring whenever there is a power interruption if you have a baby because you need to make "paypay" all night long until the power comes back. Also, I used this fan whenever he is on the cradle to make sure he is well ventilated and also, to protect his face from mosquitos as well.
Now that my son is 3 years old already (going four years old this coming Marxh), this item serves as my daily fan whenever I am working (from home). You might wonder why I prefer this rather than the normal sized fan. It is because this fan can give convinience to me yet it do not produce loud noise specially when I am on a meeting or in a call.
This is my best buy so far..and take note, it just costs less than $2.00. There are still lots of this item available in shopee, you can check it out if you're interested to purchase this one. By the way, it is not rechargeable, so you need to plug it into a powerbank or in your laptop or cpu for it to operate.
Next in my list is this usb lamp.
It's so useful in my work as well. It just costs less then $1.0,still from shopee. I use it in a daily basis. My desktop is quietfar from the window when I moved my mini office to another room (larger room) here in our house yet I am having diffulty seeing the letters in my keyboard and slows me down from typing or encoding. During day time, there are instances where the weather is so hot and you don't want to open the light in the room because it contributes to having a hot temperature. Hence, this one is my solution. Instead of turning on the light in our room, I plug this instead in my cpu and that's it!.It solves my typing probs.
This is also very useful in my daughter's online class, because they are required to have their camera open all throughout their class. My daughter is using my computer in her online class in the morning and as I've said, since my pc location is quiet against the window, the natural light is not good enough to provide a clear image in the camera. The room light however produces some shadows that blocks my daughter' view whenever she writes in her notebook hence, this usb lamp became so useful to me and to my job daughter's online class. This usb lamp serves as her ring light during their class. It's so cheap yet so useful!.
And last but not the least, this grocery organizer.
This one only costs $3.75 (almost $4.00). I did not expect this one to last long actually when I am assembling the parts. They seems not sturdy as opposed to how it looks in the photo.
My purpose of buying this one, actually, is to be my kid's biscuit organizer. It has 4 wheels, hence my kids can drag it anywhere inside our house. But then,I run out of storage for some of my groceries hence, I decided to use this one.
However, As you can see, I had to put string in every layer to make it sturdy and to make each layer in place. But guess what, that's more than 6 months already yet no sign of giving up. I removed its wheels by the way to make it fix and stable.
And that concludes my article for today! If you also wanted to join the writing prompt , please see below are the rules.
