So some of you spent a fraction of your money on the last Shopee 6.6 sale to treat yourself for the hard works you had done in the recent weeks. I also want to join the spending spree but I have no choice but to cut expenses as I lost in Futures trades. It's Elon Musk's fault, can anyone tell him just to shut up and focus on his cars and rocketship? hahaha just kidding.
So for today, I will just show the things I bought online in recent months. Actually, these kinds of stuff are not needs and just a waste of money, I guess? I just bought it to satisfy my curiosity, the call of my inner child, and even my insecurity.
First on the list is the jaw enhancer that costs around $4 or P200
Omg, I am laughing while writing because I just realized how stupid I am for purchasing this HAHAHAHA. Anyways, I just saw this on Tiktok and it is recommended by many fitness instructors. According to them, using this daily can help your jawline became more defined. I see jawline so attractive to individuals who are having it and as a person who doesn't have a jawline, I immediately browse on Shopee, and when I found it, I click 'order now'.
Days after, it finally arrived. I put it on boiling water because that's what the instruction says. I guess to sanitize it or make it softer to bite and chew? Anyways, for the first try, I had a hard time fitting this to my mouth. It feels like it stretches your mouth to its full potential and contracts your jaw to muscles to its full capacity.
I just used it two times because I'm scared that it might hurt my jaws in the long run as I always hear a clicking/popping sound every time I am using this. Then I saw a Reddit post asking if the jaw exerciser works and many responded that it was not.
In the end, I stopped using it and just pretend that I did not waste my money on this stuff.
Next on the list is the Mini Humidifier
I posted this mini humidifier a few weeks ago on noise cash and a lot of you got interested in it. I send the Shopee link on the comment so you can take look at it carefully. However, I can say that this is another waste of money as I don't use it often.
My reason for buying this thing is for the room aesthetic. Aside from that, I want my room to be calm and relaxing while studying. But there's a time where I woke up feeling heavy, like the air I am breathing is too uncomfortable, and then I noticed that I forgot to turn off the humidifier. I just realized that the air is too humid already. Since then, I rarely use it. The Philippines is already a humid country so what's the point of using a humidifier hahaha. Even so, if you're using an air-conditioner, except that the air is dry and you need this thing.
Next are the string lights that cost around P166 for 10 meters.
So far, this is my most favorite worth it but useless stuff that I bought on the internet. Since I was a child, it is my dream to own one of these. So after earning enough here in read cash, I bought it right away.
Fun fact: This is the first product that I purchased using the money I earned here.
After two weeks, I received the parcel, and immediately test it if there's no problems or defects. It's working perfectly and started decorating right away. I can't explain the satisfaction and happiness I felt at that time; my inner child is satisfied.
However, as time goes by I got bored looking at it so I decided to just remove it and stored it in my cabinet. I also realized that it's not budget-friendly as I always replace its batteries. Ang mahal ng battery mars :((
In the end, I waste money because I didn't get a significant benefit or advantage from it.
Final thought:
Of course, after buying these kinds of stuff from the internet, I grasped how reckless I am in spending money. This is my problem ever since but I can say that I am improving little by little. I guess we all learn from experience, right? Till next Shopee sale!
