In this modern era, whenever you are reading magazines, watching television programs or stepping into the shopping mall, you may easily sense something fishy. It's either year end discount or the buy one free one promotion. The businessmen are just like hunters. They set up traps to tell us that, 'there's something good for you~ come and get it!'. At the time we are trapped, just then we realize that our pocket is bleeding.
In certain condition, some consumers just cannot refuse the temptation of little free gift and ending up buying things they do not require. This act is just like buying a cow just to get a rope. Even when the goods are very cheap, if it is unnecessary, still, it is not worth to buy it.
Economy in our country is now facing recession. In order to survive, we must live a moderate life. People should starts to reduce on unnecessary expenditure. For instance, we could eat 'nasi lemak' breakfast instead of dining in Starbucks. If we have found comfortable shirt to wear at the 'pasar malam', why should we sneak into Hush Puppies outlet?
In a nutshell, as an astute consumer, we should have self-restraint before buying anything in order to avoid unnecessary expenses. We should know it is hard to earn money. So, we should always think twice, or even more before spending it.
