How to fight Sales and Discount Shopping!


We all love to go out and bargain hunt, don't we! But for many of use I mean the majority we do not need those pastel colored shorts for next year. But for those of us who cannot help ourselves here are some tips on fighting discount or sale shopping!

1. Avoid the Mall or Outlet Stores! Unless you have to go straight to what you came for. Looking around makes you think you actually need it.

2. Hide your credit cards! A common mistake we make when we are young is charging our purchases to a credit card and an even worst mistake is getting credit cards for stores with high apr. In reality you spend twice or even more the amount you spend and it lowers your credit score. plus it takes you time to pay it off.

3. Take Cash! If you cannot pay cash then you cannot afford it. This will also help you limit your purchases and makes you think twice about what exactly you want to buy.

4. Ask yourself do you really need it! Many times we buy items we don't need, Why? Because we want it. For example, I have around 20+ handbags. I am not a girl who is into handbags that much but still gets sucked into buying that Michael Kors handbag. Why? Do I need it! NOOO! but I buy it anyways. 

After limiting yourself to smaller unnecessary purchases you will have enough money to get something you really need or a want that is worth it.

Enjoy Review

Hello Ladies, Like many of us, we value the importance of treating our hair. It is one of the great things that makes us unique. In order to get my hair that smooth feeling and shine I love using products that I can trust. I got the opportunity to try out the Enjoy Hair Moisture Plus Trio. This is great for damaged hair and you know you need this when the weather is changing. I have to say this is one of my favorite hair products so far. I love the Enjoy Hair Mask. My hair has never felt better. Though I do not have perfect hair and I use a flat iron and curler on my hair on a regular basis using this trio has made me feel like I can wear my hair down without using any heat. It gives my hair volume and it has a clean smell, if that makes any sense. My hair feels clean throughout the day and that makes me happy. The shampoo and conditioner are thick and silky so you don't have to use a lot of product to feel the difference. Overall I think these are great products, they are o...
