THE FESTIVE SEASON IS HERE AGAIN, BUYING GUIDE -  AVOID ALL THIS IF YOU DON’T WANT TO BE REGRETFUL.

Don’t Branch Into That Shop Extemporaneously, Yes Don’t!

You are on your way home, perhaps from work or an event and here you are staring at this beautiful apparel that is just too good to resist, YES! It’s tempting, it may even be the only one that has ever been made, the world over. You may go in there and buy if the year has been so bountiful to you, but if you are watching your purse or wallet, check into the place make enquiry, then you can come back if it can fit into your budget for the season, remember next year is just few days away.

Who Have You Gone To Shop Around With?

Though we hardly know why this recession period is being unfair by leaving some people out, you have to ask yourself where you stand, if that is answered, then you should know the kind of person you go to shop around with, if you don’t want to buy only one thing from morning till dawn, or clothe that you won’t have the shoe to wear it with or probably find out that you have exhausted your budget while you are still on item no. 3 with 5 more item to go. Some friends that have never bought anything on their own, except those bought by that biggest boy in town or those that know where to buy cool recently used ones - bend down select will suddenly be your fashion consultant, choose a friend that doesn't Live a fake life.

Make A List Based On Their Priority And Follow It!

Its not everyone that loves shopping on line and when you intend to buy anything get a price or at least a price range attached to every item you want, your purse or money in the bank may not run dry – thanks to POS, but you would have spent far beyond your expectation, perhaps you may get home only to discover that you left out some things, then your shopping will continue the next day.

Always Go To A Market You Know To An Appreciable Extent

Don’t just wake up one beautiful morning and decide to go to a market you don’t know how it operate, warning! You are not going to a tourist destination for leisure and relaxation, it’s the ultimate shopping experience. I was in a market doing my shopping and this man came in with a guy that he picked inside the market to be his shopping guide – little does he know that the guy has got commission on every goods bought by anyone he brings in, an apparel I bought 12,000 Nigerian Naira, he both same 15k, also considering the time you may waste going to this market and probably your inability to locate the right places for each type of goods, avoid doing this!

Always buy from a trusted Business Entity

A brand that have a lot of its standard and quality to maintain will avoid at all cost to see its name tarnished by selling substandard or cloned product. You may think you have bought it real cheap only for you to discover that it’s the cloned one, shame will not allow you to wear it to any event or even uploading on Instagram, snap chat or any social media. You may not even worry yourself about how to know the fake ones if you are going to buy from a brand with strong reputation of quality.

DO’S AND DON’T WHEN BUYING

Don’t pay before you have been giving the goods you may pay twice, due to the rush

Don’t burden yourself with too many bags you may forget one and probably won’t remember where it fell, use two bags at most.

Don’t tell the shop assistant or sales person to choose what’s best for you, he/she will probably choose the one that is going to make them more profit or the one that have stayed too long in the shelf.

Don’t bring your gadget, phone, wallet with you while shopping you may drop one or two of it mistakenly when you are immersed in your shopping spree.

Try as much as possible not to make it easily noticeable that you don’t know what you are buying, the seller will be afraid to bring a fake one to you and you won’t overpay.

Happy festive season ahead.
