Market Friday at Prince Town Supermarket

(Edited)

Hello hivers!

I've been 2 months old here at hive but this is my first time to be here in a community of @marketfriday. Thanks to the admin here which is @dswigle. I'll grab this opportunity to share some of my market Friday at Prince Town Supermarket. By the way I'm recently residing at the Philippines, in Mindanao part. At Mangagoy Bislig City.

I'm @jeansapphire, a full time mom. My partner is an ofw(Overseas Filipino Worker) at Singapore then I can have my allotment once a month. So I need to budget everything. From foods, bills, tuition and needs of my toddler. I'm not just a mother but also a father to my 2 sons. I need to balance everything from my household chores and being a blogger. Struggle is real lol.

People thinking that if your an ofw is a rich people which is a big NO. Filipino people are really a hard working type. They want a nice job so that they can sustain the needs of their family. Now that I have toddler, a 3 years old baby that needs milk everyday. Then my eldest son is studying at De La Salle school so I need to budget everything. The most important is we can eat 3 times a day. Can pay the monthly bills from electricity, water, wifi connection and tuition of my eldest son. Oh I almost forgot our monthly SSS contribution and my philhealth. I really payed it monthly for our future.

It's grocery time....

(Biscuits and junkfoods)

If you will become a mother, you will learned how to budget your money. I'm not fond of buying the expensive things in a super market. I need to compare the prices to others then I'll choose the cheap one but good quality. So let's start with the powder milk of my lil baby Collin. Actually I do breastfeeding for 2 months but I've got an infection because of my cyst operation last 2014. I've been admitted for 4 days at the hospital then the doctor advice me to feed the baby with a powder milk. So I choose the Bonna that time then after few months it's Bonamil then lastly the Bonakid. The price is okay and it really fits on my monthly budget.

Next is the diaper, I used the lampien brand because the quality is good. Then baby don't have any rashes every time he used it. As I expected then don't have the size XXL, the diaper size of my baby. So tomorow I'll go to RICHIES STORE, I barely buy there when it comes to diaper. Why I need to buy baby wipes? Once he poop I really used it to wipe his butt.

Frozen foods, canned goods and noodles....

This kind of foods is for our breakfast. I know that it's a not a healthy foods but sometimes I'm out of vegetables. My eldest son is a vegetarian so I need to prepare his fave foods. When I go to wet market I really buyed a lot of vegetables and fish. I'm sad that the other biscuits is not available, I mean the favorite of my baby. He love the rebisco crackers but the junkfoods is for me and my eldest. We usually buy hot breads during afternoon.

(Our fave brands lol)

When it comes to laundry powder I really love the "SURF". Aside from being cheap the scent is really okay and a 100% bubbling. We used silka soap for many years and also the head&shoulder shampoo. We really have a favorite brands and it's your decision were you can be more comfortable.

Since I'm suffering a hand pain so I always buy my beloved "EFFICASCENT OIL". Then the alcohol will not be missing also that even we don't have a pandemic I really buy this one. Lastly my feminine pads lol. I'm still using this one coz I'm not yet menopausal hehehe.

At the CASHIER...

( My receipt🤭)

At last I'm done. Now it's paying time. We all know the price hike is getting higher. We need to minimized some of our necessities at home. Buy the cheap one if it is highly needed for your budget. Tomorrow I'll buy a 1 sack of rice and a 1 tray of eggs but I let my eldest brother to buy it. I don't t want to carry that one, so heavy hehehe.

That's all for todays blog and hope you enjoy my quick tour at the supermarket. Thanks for reading and happy weekend to all.

  • Wow! You really brought a lot! Or maybe you just gave a great tour of the market! Welcome to #MarketFriday! It sure isn't easy doing it without a mate, and the money isn't always as much as you would like, but, it's the things we do to get ahead in life, right? I know what it is like to be a mom and dad. Some days it is fun and others, it is just hard work!

I apologize for such a late reply, I have been out of town watching the wild horse round-up and did not have regular wifi available at my camp. I am going through all the posts and reading them, that is the best part of the week, and you have spent much time and effort putting your post together. I never have to wonder about how things are going in your part of the world. Seems like I get to hear weekly about the happenings. How fun for me and all the other people who stop by to give it a read. As an aside, I have been really happy with how well the #MarketFriday participants are stopping by others' posts to give them some support and leaving comments. It is the way to share, and the way to make everyone feel like their contribution means something... you know it does! Thank you so much for participating in the challenge!!

Thank you for participating in #MarketFriday! I appreciate the time and effort that goes into putting a post together for the challenge. It is with great pleasure that I read through and realize how much we have all tried to include things in our world that may be unique to the area.

Life is interesting, wherever you are, whatever you are doing. I hope the week has found you healthy and happy, as we all look to prosper in our way of life.
