As I reached home yesterday, Mak gave me a piece of letter. It's not a letter actually, but more of a catalogue from C1mb Bank, detailing the list of benefits you can get by using / carrying their credit card.
10% discount at this, this restaurant.
Get your hair-cut at this salon, and get 15% discount.
XX% discount at this, this, this...bla, bla, bla...and the list goes on.
Interesting?
But how do I keep track of all these discounts?
Let me see, I've got few cards in my purse (credit card cuma satu, managed to get rid of the others)....And all come with a set of benefits and priviledges.
Most of the times (or is it all the time?) I regretted not using the cards I've got to make full use of the discounts offered. Not that I don't want to, but seriously tak ingat that this card entitles me a discount if I dine-in at their restaurants, or bought stuff from their outlets. Like bila dapat a catalogue like yesterday, barulah terasa macam "Eh, dapat discount ke kat sini? Le..baru je spend duit kat sana. Tak ingatlah guna card ni boleh dapat discount."
Kedai tu pun satu. They seldom remind us that you can use this card to get discount. Or probably the cashier itself pun couldn't remember what card gives what discount. So, it's all up to us. Kalau-kau-nak-jimat-duit-kau-ingatlah-sendiri kinda thing.
So, any ideas on how I can keep track of the discounts? Any system? I can't go on carrying few catalogues everytime I shop, right? That wouldn't be practical. Plus, kalau I go on reading the catalogue while "menjelajahi" KLCC for example *ala-ala baca peta kalau sesat*, orang kata minah ni kiasu pulak. But orang tak kaya macam hamba ni, discount penting beb...RM3 punya savings, lepas makan tengahari hamba untuk satu hari....

raf,i akan letak promotion booklet tu kan kt tmpt yg sng nk nmpk,so kalau weekend we all nak kuar jln2 shopping complex,b4 kuar i akan belek2 dulu catalogue and tgk ada tak offer2 bagus kt tmpt yg we all nk pegi ni-or sometimes i go by occasion,cthkan kalau next mth anniversary ke or b'day then i akan tgk tmpt2 mkn mana yg best n ada bg discount (cimb asikla offer planet hollywoodkn) or offer2 utk hadiah (discount utk jewellery slalu ada,apa lg raf potong siap2 voucher tu tampal kt dinding blk,hubby tgk mesti dia gerun hihi),so kalau kita dah set kan,sure kita ingat punya-hah i buat camtu la,kalau tmpt2 yg offer discount tu kita tak familiar/jarang pegi mmg haram la nak ingatkn,tu yg slalu jadik mcm u cite tu,dah lps offer date then baru perasan
Plan your purchases ie before nak pi bli kena go thru the booklet dulu :)
Now ni I buka mata warehse sale for kitchen hob & hood. Will serang teka warehse this weekend. Hope we can get a good deal. Nak buat camana kan org mcm kita ni bila warehse sale ajelah baru mampu :P
i selali cut all the coupons and vouchers, tapi seldom teringat until the last day and seldom use also. mostly simpan in my purse and buang cos dah expire.
but i love guardian vouchers...i can never get enuf toiletteries. nowadays, i keep the ronald mcdonald vouchers esp yg the video ezy ones.
cannot offer advice cos seems like wer'e ont he same boat.. asyik laaaaaa lupa! pastu ala regert sebab tak guna.. but i rasa cash purchases lagi bagus in the long run.
ermm.. i also cannot offer advice, because i'm very anal about all the discounts.. so much so that i will always remember all the discounts i can get. heheh..
btw, u've been tagged!! check out my blog.
