Hell0 Darlings,

With another Boxing Day conquered, the question of the day is Boxing Day shopping - is it worth it? Despite my best efforts to plan, I've realized Boxing Day success is more about luck and lots of will power. Also it's key to have a specific piece to hunt to avoid wandering aimlessly and save yourself from unnecessary purchases.

Therefore, this boxing day I had a clear goal in mind. Only to buy items that I actually need now or in the near future. This Boxing Day, I ended up leaving with a dress for my university graduation, a skirt for my internship, and a pair of flats that I've been dying to get. As well as some beauty products.

Can I say that it was a successful day of shopping? Yes! Only because I purchased items that I need and I did so with saving quite a bit. So, shall we explore my boxing day "scores"... and reasons behind the purchase and the amount saved! This is kind of like a Boxing Day Analysis...

Hello Darlings,

With all the Christmas lists put aside. Shopping done and over with. Santa has come and gone. It is time for the glorious day of absolutely chaos, Boxing Day. Although the day is formally known as the Feast of St. Stephen—dedicated to the first Christian martyr—it has "developed into a feast for bargain hunters willing to martyr their credit cards for the almighty discount".

We all know to approach the malls with caution or better yet to completely avoid them. However, we all do it...we go out with hopes of filling in the gaps that Santa has missed to fill, looking for items that we most likely don't need. However, with sale signs all over the city, it is so hard to avoid such eye candy. Therefore, we will all set out with the hearts of warriors to find those awesome deals. Although my last year's experience was quite pleasant, I've decided to take the opportunity to research some tips and tricks to make the day a little smoother :)
