Ever gone to the supermarket or mall for some items and you end up buying other things because all the goods on display are just too attractive and you can't help yourself? Hahaha! That was my interesting ordeal earlier this morning. Gosh! I wonder why this always happens to me. Hahaha!
I work Mondays to Fridays, 8 am to 6 pm, and some Saturdays. I do not have time to go shopping or visit family and friends except on some weekends and Sundays. Luckily today is free for me and I decided to schedule my time properly to make the best of today so I can lounge at home the whole of tomorrow.
I had woken up by 5 am, checked my Hive account and commented on some posts. I did some chores and prepared a breakfast of tea for some family members, coffee for me and my sister and scrambled eggs. I did not remember to take pictures.
My siblings and I dressed up and we set out for Ikeja City Mall where Shoprite supermarket is situated. We drove for like twenty minutes, less traffic on the road thankfully and arrived at the Mall right on time.
Shoprite opens at 9 am and within two hours of window shopping and traipsing around the shops, we were done!
I planned to shop for honey especially, and some provisions that my family and I need at home.
I did not find the brand we take at home so I settled for Moringa Mc'Bee honey. Hopefully, we will like the taste
We went round all the aisles, feasted our eyes on some goods, edible and non-edible, and bought the things we needed. We also ended up buying some snacks that we call small chops in pidgin English. See what I mean? Buying things that I did not need.
These marketers have a way of tricking people to spend and spend and spend. Extravagance is a luxury I cannot afford but I am being careful. How do you handle overspending when you go shopping? I'd like to know.
I had a lovely time with my siblings. We parted ways and I boarded a tricycle to visit a friend of mine close to the Mall. I took this picture from inside my tricycle.
I am here with her now, relaxed, munching on some snacks I bought at the Mall.
I decided to write this post about how my weekend is going while my friend is busy preparing breakfast or more likely brunch! She's not a morning person on weekends.
I hope you are having a relaxing weekend!
Thank you for visiting my blog.
