Weekend wars

Greetings of peace!!


My family and I went to the mall today!
We watched The Amazing Spiderman. And it's nothing short of amazing. Marc Webb delivered.I love Andrew Garfield! He is so adorable. He and Emma Stone had great chemistry.I can't wait for the next franchise. Haha.
Almost every store and brand were on sale! Shops were offering up to 70% discounts and some where offering half the price on all their items. Every brand is trying to lure the shoppers in. Trying to make it look like they've got the best offer. Retail therapy (a.k.a. shopping?) at its best (not really). Haha. Though, I don't really believe in those kind of treatment to whatever problem you have right now.
It seems like a very tiring way to feel better, but it's nice buying new things for yourself.
A lot of families where shopping too. We even saw the rumored celebrity couple, Rhian Ramos and KC Montero! People can't get enough of them. :))

During our last meeting in Business Math, we actually discussed about the different types of discounts and how to solve for the invoice price of a discounted item. It will be very useful when you're out shopping. It will help you know which store gives the better offer when it comes to the discounts they are giving.
What a timely lesson that was! I learned that you have to think hard about the discount they are giving you. If you're really going to save more, or if it's just a marketing trick. Some stores are offering consecutive discounts making you think they have a better offer, but oftentimes, the one without a consecutive discount is better. So think hard before buying something, there might be someone out their who has a better offer.

I hope you learned a lot from this post.
Thank you for reading!


I'll be leaving you with this quotation by Will Rogers:
Too many people spend money they haven't earned, to buy things they don't want, to impress people they don't like.
