I didn't know why I purchase this suddenly just because they look so nice and cute. As if I'm like hypnotize to buy this teaching materials I see in Facebook. I'm just inquiring and the next thing I do is I'm ordering it. It is worth 750 pesos not really planned. I feel guilty after wards but I just think that this is investment from the 800 pesos internet money I earned.
But they are really nice educational materials. I plan to buy next a talking vocabulary cards or words but now I look first for in Shopee and it is only 250 pesos while in Facebook it is worth 800 pesos.

It is useful for my business but it is just a bit expensive

@averygirl72 Sometimes you have no choice when it's something that you must have.

It's cheap in Shopee but I forgot to look first at Shopee. Anyway the shipping is free

If you can get some use from it, then it's not really a waste of money.

I just feel that it is not a priority at this time and I have other expenses that I should prioritize first but anyway I'll just make good use of it

I saw my cousin who also have a tutorial business like me have teaching materials like this and I want to have something like that for my students too. They look so fun to use

I believe all you have to do is effectively utilize that. It wouldn't be a waste because, in my opinion, you can use that in your tutoring business. I believe that certain items sold in Shoppee are knockoffs, which is why they are priced lower. The following time, perhaps, you might shop around first to find the best deal.

@averygirl72 I've heard that products that are sold for a low price on that platform might be faulty. My wife has some experience with this, and she discovered that the cheaper option wasn't exactly the same as the one that cost more.

@rsa101 I will read the reviews of customers and how many items are already sold. This is my guide in shopping at Shopee

What do you mean knockoffs? I always find cheaper items in Shopee and I think they are just the same. I know it will be useful eventually.

I don't like the feeling after I buy something out of urge and without thinking first if it is worth my money

I am on a budget so impulse will not be for me for some months. But I do understand you.
