The post 3 Major Benefits of Shopping with a Budget in Mind appeared first on Beautiful Trends Today.
]]>One impulse purchase usually leads to the next, and that’s why many people tend to spend more money on shopping than they intended to. Shopping with a budget will help you avoid unnecessary purchases because you’ll know you can’t afford them from the get-go.
Having a budget in place will also save you a lot of time because you won’t be wandering around the store without a plan in place. Bringing a shopping list is equally effective because you’ll know exactly where to look.
Using coupons and buying discounted items can also come in handy when your budget is tight. You can consider buying new brands of certain products that come with a lower price, so you could know if their quality matches the ones you usually use.

]]>Buying in bulk is much better than going to the grocery store a few times a week. Things like laundry detergent and paper and canned goods don’t have an expiration date, so it’s better to buy them in bulk. This trick will save you tons of money and lots of time.
Grocery stores have a clever trick to get us to buy more expensive products by placing them at eye-level, so we’d automatically reach for them. That’s why you should always check the lowest shelves and grab products that are much cheaper.
When we pay with credit or debit cards we’re more likely to buy things we don’t really need and spend more money. Limiting your budget and paying in cash is always a better option if you want to save money.
Write down a list of all the things you need before going to the store and stick to that list. This is a simple trick that’ll prevent you from buying unnecessary things and it will save you a lot of time.

]]>Learn how to properly test a perfume before buying it below.
Before even considering spraying the perfume on your skin, use a paper strip. It’s good enough to give you a general idea of the smell you can expect so you can know if you want to test it on your skin next.
If you liked the scent from the paper strip, spray it onto your wrist and wait for around 20 seconds for the perfume to develop. Still like it?
To see how the particular perfume works against your skin, you need to wait for half an hour. If you still like it after that time, that’s the perfume for you.

]]>Kohlmarkt is one of the oldest streets in Vienna and it was also home to famous composers like Mozart, Haydn or Chopin. You’ll find some of the most exclusive shops in Austria here, while also enjoying its beautiful architecture and wonderful historical buildings.
It is said that Orchard Road once led to nutmeg, pepper and fruit plantations or orchards, hence the name. With over 800,000 square meters this 2.2-kilometre-long street is a paradise for every shopaholic.
Ginza is the most popular neighborhood of Tokyo, but it’s also the wealthiest and the most luxurious street you can find in the city. Everything you need is located here, including some of Japan’s oldest and most prestigious department stores.
The Italian city of Milan is one of the world’s fashion capitals. Therefore, it’s not surprising that this prestigious shopping street is the most expensive street in Europe.
Los Angeles also has its own shopping paradise and it’s a two-mile-long street on Beverly Hills packed with designer stores. Maybe you’ve seen Julia Roberts shopping here in her famous movie Pretty Woman.

]]>Minimalism is a concept that prioritizes clean, uncluttered spaces with as few things as possible. Though for most people it’s impossible to become totally minimalist, there are some simple ways for you to make your space feel lighter and more minimal.
Go through those junk drawers, boxes, and closets, and actually get rid of all those things that you are saving for a special occasion or last month’s newspapers. By physically getting rid of things you create more space in your home and in your mind.
Most people own more clothes than they actually need, so do yourself a favor and start donating and selling the ones that you don’t wear so much or even like. A good rule of thumb is if you haven’t worn it in 2 months and it’s within the season you’re in, give it up.
Something that you can do while or even before you go shopping is to think whether you want something or need something. This will help you save money by purchasing less, but it will also help you own less things. This also goes for food, as food waste is huge in most of the developed world.

]]>Cosmetics and makeup products are especially easy to impulse buy and hoard because you always think you’ll use them up eventually. However, they don’t last forever and before you know it, you’ll have to throw them out because they expired.
Of course, when you buy all those products, you have to store them somewhere. Mess and clutter in your bathroom can be stressful, leading you to skip your skincare routine which totally defeats the purpose of buying the products in the first place.
What can you do? If you can relate to this story and have too many products clogging your bathroom, the first step is to start a “no shopping” week, month, or however long you can take. Instead of piling up more and more products, use up what you have. And when the time comes to go shopping again, go with a plan. Whenever you see something you want to have, ask yourself the following questions:
A clean shelf with nothing but the products you love and use will bring you joy every time you look at it.

Etsy shop PushyPushyUpDownGo sell handmade felt plushes of Kawaii cats in the cutest color schemes. These plushes can be turned into key chains, Christmas tree ornaments, or even bookmark decorations. Some of my favorite Kawaii cat plushes are Watermelon Cat, Strawberry Cat, and Cupcake Cat (pictured below).
If the Kawaii cat gift was just an overload of cuteness, get the Kisa Cat Candle. What starts out as an ordinary geometric cat candle slowly turns into a dark cat skeleton. A mix of artistic and creepy. Check it out:
