Do you always find there is not enough money in your wallet when shopping? So it is necessary for you to learn how to save money during the shopping.
Make a shopping list. Before you go shopping, make a list of everything you plan to buy. The rule is: youre not allowed to buy anything unless its already on your list. Itll help you buy the things you need.
Only bring the money you need. You cant spend money you dont have. Before you go out, put a small amount (數(shù)量) of money in your wallet to cover all the buying you plan to do. If the money runs out, your shopping is over for the day.
When youre in doubt, leave the store. If you are in the situation whether or not to buy something, put it down and leave the store. If you find later that you really want it, you can go back and buy it. But usually, youll be happy you saved your money.
Dont be seduced (誘惑) by sales. Sometimes you buy something you dont need just because its very cheap. Cheap or not, theres no need to spend any amount of money on something youll never use.
