Tips Membelanjakan Wang Ihsan Sumbangan Kerajaan Mesra Rakyat

*perghh tajuk tak boleh kiss ass lagi ke woi*

Studying overseas and surviving life with fixed amount of monthly allowance has taught me two things;

1)  Human beings can survive on megi mee
2)  How to prioritize on my spendings

Memang dah terbiasa catu perbelanjaan dan hidup kais pagi makan breakfast, jadi tatkala dianugerahi voucher buku RM250 oleh pemimpin ulung Bapa 1Malaysia harus excited dan joli tanpa lengah.

Pukul 3 ambik voucher by the time pukul 5 petang RM250 selamat dibelanjakan.

But to be fair, books in Malaysia are pretty expensive. Jadi setakat RM250 memang tak dapat banyak pun dekat kedai buku. Harap kerajaan Malaysia dapat kurangkan subsidi gula penyumbang diabetes dan salurkan ke arah pengurangan harga buku. (Saranan ini pasti dibenci tauke kuih dan air kordial tepi jalan)

How did i spend all RM250 in one go? Selain dari sifat pemboros terpendam, dah lama sebenarnya nak beli buku buat bahan bacaan ringan. 

Since dah takde buku rujukan nak dibeli (yang ada pun tak terbaca,tak masuk e-book lagi tu) jadi peruntukan voucher ini dikhususkan kepada bahan bacaan leisure. Leisure pun kira ilmiah la jugak kerana menyumbang kepada penambahan kosa kata English.

I've been eyeing this Hunger Games bookset for a long time oredy. Tapi duit dah habis buat isi minyak kereta jadi memang sayu terpaksa tunggu bantuan kerajaan untuk beli.

Other than Hunger Games, beli satu buku memoir ex pekerja mental institute. Konon sebagai persiapan untuk mendalami bidang psychiatry. Dan satu pocketbook Oxford surgery sebab takde pocketbook lagi utk surgery. Pocketbook tu je harga 90ringgit woi nampak tak kat situ kalau nak beli buku rujukan semata-mata memang kena mohon voucher 3 ribu ringgit.

Other than the books, turut dibeli ialah perkakasan alatulis yang selalunya dibeli setahun sekali atau dicilok dari pencil case rakan.

All these were purchased at MPH. A lot of people i know spent theirs at Popular and trust me, speaking as someone who lives under poverty line and as a heavily discounted items afficionado, i tell you lah kan..MPH is wayy better than Popular. Now, why MPH is the best place to spend your 250 ringgit away? Lemme tell you why...

First, dekat Popular sebijik buku Hunger Games dijual dengan harga 42 ringgit lebih. Dekat MPH set tu 3 bijik total 60 ringgit je. So MPH 1, Popular 0.

Then, on top of the RM250 voucher, you can also use your kad siswa 1Malaysia at MPH.

With this seemingly useless card, you can get 10% discount. So on top of dapat barang free RM250, dapat belanja lagi extra 10% which makes it 275 ringgit in total. This is what i call- a double whammy. harus dua kali pangkah Barisan Nasional

So dengan extra allowance 25ringgit itu i grabbed a National Geographic magazine and some files.

Kalau dekat Popular you cannot use your voucher to buy magazines,only books. Which is rubbish. Magazines also educational what?? Majalah gosip juga edukesyenel senang nak tau artis mana yang tengah up.

The other thing is, a sale rep at Popular told me you have to allocate at least 80% of your voucher for books, the remaining baru boleh beli stationaries. Peraturan tahi apakah ini? Dah satu hal aku nak kira percentage kat tetengah kedai kau.

Another awesome thing that MPH did was when you spent your voucher there, you'll get MPH voucher plus lucky draw. I got RM10 Sakae Sushi voucher for the lucky draw. Hoi dahlah ambik barang RM270 tak payah keluar duit,pastu dia bagi lagi voucher. I swear this is like an episode of Extreme Couponing.

Total spending ialah RM249.15 Ralat kerana tak jumpa barang berharga 85 sen untuk genapkan perbelanjaan.

Sekian saja khidmat pesanan masyarakat perbelanjaan berhemah dan promosi tak berbayar untuk MPH. Berbelanjalah secara berwibawa dan usah segan minta diskaun tambahan.
