It is normal for us to be tempted but how we response to the temptation is our responsibility and our choice.

Shout out to my lovely sponsors. Thank you for supporting me. I appreciate you all so much. More blessings and God bless.

Kindly check them out as well they are great writers.

Today is November 15 and it's payday sale in almost all shopping apps we've known. And you know what it means, it's temptation day πŸ˜…. I actually downloaded the app since 11.11 sale and look for something I might like and is cheaper. The temptation is getting powerful but thanks God I wasn't able to purchased anything. I added few thing in my cart though but thinking that I might get out of cash whenever parcel arrived, I get hesitant and doubtful to purchase anything. Glad to know I didn't give in to 11.11 sale.

But temptation get louder and I keep on checking the things I added to cart. Having so many attempts of checking them out. Weighing things here and there. Then later in the evening I did purchase some of them. I was saved during 11.11 sale but I was still dive in the next day.

And here's what I order.

Wew, I was tempted but still thankful that I get to consider things first before clicking. I order two pants and two tops because that's what I needed most, I guess. Since I have my new job now I needed more pants for work, so as tops. So it's just fair buying them. Considering that it only cost 113 pesos each if I will divide the total amount as I pay the shipping fee. But still I know I get it the cheapest amount I could because if I would buy it in the store it will cost me double the amount of 100 pesos sometimes tripple especially the pants. So it's just fair enough. I just set aside some amount in case the parcel would arrive. I still do have quite few in the cart and I am constantly checking it from time to time. Thinking and thinking again if I would buy them since it's payday sale. πŸ˜‚ And I finally decided to wait to receive first my first order before order more. If I would order other important things. πŸ˜…πŸ˜ I hope I would stick to important things. (Fingers crossed 🀞)

At some point I am regretting of installing the application again. It's actually the third or fourth times that I uninstalled it and installed again. I did that because I know I would be tempting to buy something especially during sale. I am hesitant because I don't have money the previous times and I would be hurting myself if I continue to keep on checking the things I like but I can't afford to buy. But now that I can have at least have few of the list. I am thankful that I can buy them. I needed them though not just purely wants and cannot be used. It will be of so much use if I would have them. Though I could live without it but it's okay to pumper yourself sometimes if you have extra.

It's important to be responsible to the things you will be making. And it's okay to dive into the temptations as long as you are responsible enough to face whatever will be the consequences of it. Knowing when is the right time and what is the reason behind such action.

For me diving in to the temptation of buying the things on Shoppee gone through a lot of thinking and consideration. And it's good to know that I still have the responsible side of me especially to the things I want and need.

Knowing the things which you wanted and needed is necessary. It's good to identify the things which is more important to you. And I am proud of you if you do.

How about you? Are you tempted too?

That would be all for today friends. Thank you for reading. I appreciate you all. Keep safe and God bless. πŸ™πŸ˜‡

Naa gayud ng temptation mamsh pero dapat kamao gayud mubalanse. Pareha anang Shopee balansehon gayud kung angay ba o dili. Kung afford gayud mamsh why not mamsh nuh. Dili lang gayud nato pugson ato self usahay pag gipit gayud kay magbasol gayud sa ulihi mamsh. Ako mamsh nag order sad ko pag 11.11 kailangan sad mamsh. Importante sad kaayo.

They are like temptations to me,we also have the jumia black friday on here where they cut discounts on goods and services,I just tried not to be tempted with any of their products cuz it's just wasting of time since the shipping fee would be high to bring the good,just try to buy things that are important to you and leave the rest... enjoy your day.

I don't spend a lot of time shopping, but it can be advantageous to take advantage of discounts. I prefer to buy only the products that are needed, I do my research in the weeks or days I will buy, and I buy the most suitable and quality products.

Yeah it's very important to think again and again. And I did review the comments about the products and the store as well.
