Parcel has been delivered and completed
Add to cart, check. Check it out and payment confirmed, check. Now what is next, of course the arrival of the item you purchased. This has always been the closest scenario whenever I do online purchase. I have been patronizing shopee application since 2018 because I am selling some of my handmade crafts over there. Then later on I find out that aside from shopping and selling I can pay the bills with some discount voucher at the same application. They even have groceries, but nah, I would still prefer going to the physical store for groceries rather than doing it online. The reason is that there's two nearby grocery store at our place and soon it is going to be three since there is a ongoing construction of mall near our village. It is actually bigger than the other mall so I am expecting another grocery inside of it.
Going back to my article's title today I am going to share to you what I have purchased in the past few days through online. Here it goes. By the way all of these has arrived and completed.
The first parcel I received this week which I had ordered the other week. As you can see those things aren't for my personal use instead it is addition for my handmade crafts. For those who doesn't know yet I am into felt crafting and I sell felt christmas ornaments. I have to meet my goal for this year because I haven't meet it last year. Usually the peak orders starts by mid October until the last week of November. For this year I wish I could make a lot of stocks because the money that I will earn from this will be added for a special project we are planning for our home. Since I had already started cutting the pattern, the next step is to begin stitching and put some fiber fill inside. I bought 2 kilos of fiber fill which I think can fill up to 300 to 400 ornaments. I would just buy next time in order to make some more. I bought red thread as well. I only check out 5 pieces of it but the seller mistakenly sent me 8. I also added needle because the needles I am using were all rusty and not in good condition to use, unfortunately the needle they sent me isn't the one I am looking for. I might look for another needle next time.
The next parcel that came this week is this playpen for dogs. I have already mention in my past articles about our newly born puppies. They were officially 22 days as of this writing. They look bigger now, obviously because all they do is sleep and drink milk everyday. Both of them keeps on crawling, that is why they no longer stay in the bed where they used to stay back when they were just few days old. So in order to keep them safe I checked for a dog fence at Shopee and this is what I have found. Of course, before adding it to cart I have read the buyers review about the particular item. Most of it were nice and seems like a good buy, so I immediately checked it out. I ordered it last April 24 and after 5 days the parcel was delivered. Just like what I have expected the item is in good shape and well I am very delighted to put the little puppies inside.
My third purchase has something to do with my crafts as well. I added it on my cart last April 27 and surprisingly the seller sent it right away that yesterday the parcel came at our front gate. As you can see from the pictures, the items I bought were felt cloth which is the main material for my handmade crafts. I am super excited and might be busy in the coming days in order to meet my goal which I have mention earlier. Felt craft used to be just a hobby for me, but during pandemic it served as our bread and butter for about 3 months since my husband didn't have work because cruise ships were banned for sailing. It was one of the worst hardship we've been through because all of our savings were literally drained. Thanks to my handmade feltcraft because we somehow survived it.
So these were the items I have purchased within this week and I am glad I received it without any problem. Right now I still have one purchase that needs to be shipped.
Face mask is a must, so I ordered 4 boxes of it. If you could still remember I save 100 php on the electric bill that I have stated on my yesterday's article. I used it to pay for the 4 boxes of face mask and luckily I never paid for the shipping fee since it was free. I am still waiting for the seller to ship the item.
In times of pandemic where everyone is advise to stay home, online shopping is a great stress reliever to be honest. I find it more convenient and less hassle than going out. As for the materials needed for my little shop, I would always prefer buying it via online than going to Divisoria. The price difference is only a few bucks and I don't think I can save more going there since I needed to pay for the fare, then I would be stressed out by the traffic jam, and of course my tummy needs some foods. Those are an additional expenses, and in the end instead of saving I think I would have spend more. While in online shops I just needed to wait for a few days and wait for the parcel to arrive at our doorsteps.
