Saving Big From Online Shopping

Last week’s online purchase of two acne-targeted skincare products for Cass yielded substantial savings for me. Besides the skincare products, I also bought cat food, toiletries, and cleaning products on Christmas Day when there were online sales on both the Lazada and Shopee platforms.

Online shopping has become my go-to method for procuring skincare products and for good reasons. The convenience, extensive options, and, most importantly, the potential for substantial savings make it an unbeatable choice. Last week's purchase is yet another testament to the financial benefits of online shopping!

Before diving into the savings, the total cost of the two Eucerin ProACNE Solution products was RM193.50 (BEFORE DISCOUNT).  After discounts, I only had to pay RM150.74.

Here's where the magic happened:

Free Shipping: there was free shipping for my purchase.  The parcel was delivered to me in just four days. If not for Christmas, the parcel would have reached me even earlier.

Store Voucher: A RM23.22 voucher from the Eucerin Official Store on Shopee further slashed the overall expense.

Cashback: Shopee, the platform where I made the purchase, rewarded me with 2044 coins, equivalent to a RM20.44 cashback, adding to the accumulated savings.

In total, I saved a substantial RM43.66 on these two skincare products, and this is not a one-time occurrence. Regular online shopping sales, discounts, and cashback offers continue to contribute to significant savings throughout the year.




Had I opted for the traditional route of purchasing these skincare products from a physical pharmacy, the cost would easily surpass RM200. The substantial price difference underscores the economic advantage of embracing the online shopping trend for me. And this is the reason why I hardly go to the malls now. Instead, I now spend at least an hour every day browsing Shopee and Lazada and adding items to my shopping carts. Best destresser ever 😁
