Cost Saving

I'm sure some of the Mummies & Daddies might have finance difficulties at times.. I been thru that as well... When our house came & suddenly due to some partnership problem i gotta give up my own business & be a stay home mum due to me being 7 months pregnant with Benson... I'm sure no company will even wanna interview me... Because all things came at once... So when finance is tight... "Cost Saving" will very automactically comes into our mind... I may not have alot of ideal on how to saved up... But i'm still learning =) Just pass a 1 or 2 tricks... To those who wanna save some cost...

Suggestion 1:

Instead of using Baby Bottle Sterilizer ... I don't own one.. { So i took the picture from net.. }







Solution : There is 2 ways...

 Solution 1:

Use water to boil.. Which i did but after that I think is not easy looking after a cranky newborn & watching the fire..



Solution 2 :

Use a 3 Deck food steamer... Choose those that is higher in height.. So u can put in all 2-3 bottles if u are using lot's of them.. I only use one deck for mine..




Suggestion 2: Avent Steamer Plus Blender ( If u have extra cash on hand u can buy one...  )



Solution : Buy this puree maker bowl ( The photo below ) From Daiso for just $2 ..



How to use it: U must steam fruits or veg first in ur steamer ( No need to steam for papaya & banana ) .. After the fruits & food is steamer soften there is a rough patch on top , middle of the puree bowl... Just use a spoon or use ur hand to hold on to the food & start rubbing on the rough surface.. The puree will flow to the side catcher of the bowl.. & u can feed ur baby direct from the catcher... Is simple & mess free...


If you really needed help u may wanna reached out for second hand item or people to bless u some second hand item.. 

Blessing Group : Love , Peace & Bless or Sincere Blessing  or Helping Hands ...


For Second Hand Item : Buzzy Tots or Brand New & Pre loved

 
Tips For Meat: Instead of buying fresh meat, U can choose to buy Frozen meat... The price different can be $1-$2 or more depends if there is any promotion.




Tips for going to market: Always prepare a shopping list first before heading out... Because it happened to me.. I didn't prepare any list but when i reached market my mind went blank.. & I bought alot of unnecessary food which will go to waste...


* Pls note that I m not doing this for credit from anyone by posting the above groups.. Any dealing with seller in the group is between you & the seller *

The Above is just suggestion for " Cost Saving " .. Feel free to leave any comment or suggestion for more cost saving tips
