My 11.11 Shopping Spree


The thrill of 11.11, also known as Singles’ Day, is like no other for avid online shoppers like myself. From the 9th to the 11th of November, I was glued to my phone, navigating the virtual aisles of Lazada and Shopee, making the most of the world’s largest 24-hour online sale.

Singles’ Day originated in China as an anti-Valentine’s Day celebration on November 11th (11/11), symbolizing the date’s four single ones. Over the years, it has evolved into the world’s biggest online shopping event, surpassing the likes of Amazon’s Prime Day and Black Friday combined.

One strategy I employed was to start scouting for deals weeks before 11.11. Some items were already on sale a few days before 11.11, with additional perks like free shipping, cashback, platform discounts, and store discounts. This allowed me to maximize my savings and make the most of the shopping festival.

This is my haul:

1. Batik House Dress/Sleepwear: A cozy addition to my wardrobe, perfect for lounging around the house. Iā€™m in these dresses almost 24 hours a day coz they are so comfy and cooling.

2. Toiletries Galore: Stocked up on essentials like shampoo, body wash, toothbrush, and toothpaste.

3. Cat Essentials: Ensured Haru was well taken care of with enough cat litter and wet cat food.

4. Wrist Splint from China: I swear by wearing a wrist splint to sleep at night to prevent Carpal Tunnel Syndrome pain and numbness from interrupting my beauty sleep.

5. Lingerie for Everyone: Treated myself and the girls to some lingerie, because why not? Found some quality lingerie at really good prices.

6. Reed Diffuser: A delightful addition to my living room and bathroom, bringing a refreshing fragrance to every corner. I was so happy that the price of Kundal’s reed diffuser dropped from almost RM40 to only RM20!

7. Hair Extensions in Trendy Colors: Inspired by a friend’s ‘poison’ post on Facebook, I couldn’t resist buying colored hair extensions in sakura pink and blonde. The prospect of trying out a new look without committing to hair dye was too tempting to pass up!

Did you join the 11.11 shopping extravaganza frenzy? Do share your exciting purchases and experiences!

Christmas came early for me! Hubby bought me a pair of Nike shoes from the Nike website, which also had a sale.

I wanted to order the Nike Pegasus 40 Women’s Road Running shoes in hot pink but the color that I wanted wasn’t on sale. So I chose a pair of white running shoes, a color that I’ve long wanted to have as white matches just about any wardrobe color.

The Nike Pegasus 40 Women’s Road Running Shoes was launched in April 2023, with a RRP of RM589. While other colors had discounts, the more popular colors didn’t have any discount, including this hot pink. This is going to be my birthday pressie next year!
In case you didn’t know, I am crazy over pink. Even my car is pink.šŸ˜œ
