FLC’s Thinking Out Loud

My sister was issued a mobile phone by her company. The phone is locked to a giant telecom network much the same with the personal cell phone of my sister. So what she will be doing is that, she will have the her personal phone unlocked. The unlocked phone will be subscribed to a competing network so she will have luxury of using it with the same subscribers. That way, it will be lesser cell phone charges for her.

My cousin would certainly be thrilled if someone will give them a laptop. They are not really financially stable right now. So they are just renting a computer at the internet shop if she and her siblings need to use a computer to go online. I keep seeing them at the internet shop near our place so I thought, I might as well give them our old laptop and I will just buy a new one for me.

But then I saw Charter Laptop A Day Giveaway. I thought, hmm… I will just get a service from Charter.com that I need and then get myself included in the giveaway automatically! Why not, right?

So now I am checking out the services being offered by Charter.com: Charter Digital Home™, High-Speed Internet and Telephone. If you want to save when you get their services, you can get it in a package. Like for example, you can get all three of their services for a package price of $99.97 per month only!

My aunt will be going out of the country by Friday. She’s been asking me since last week about what I want for her to give me. I have been racking my brain for it and finally, I know what I want… a Sony Vaio! I cannot buy one myself because of budget constraints. I just bought some things plus I had to pay for my brother’s tuition fees so buying a Sony Vaio is out of the question for me right now. Thank goodness I have a generous aunt who will give me one.

Yesterday, I was touring the metro, running errands for the family. I had to check an indoor antenna for the tv upstairs. I had to buy a luggage set for my aunt who will be going out of the country by next week. I had to go check out an HDMI switch for my brother. I had to go get a plane ticket for my cousin who will be flying to London tomorrow. Plus I had to check out some outdoor gear for another cousin. It was crazy, I tell you. Thank goodness I already called up stores and checked out some items online before anything else.

Did I hear you say electronics? I go to an electronics shop every month just to check on what’s new and if the model of a gadget I have is already outdated. No, I don’t necessarily buy new gadgets every month but I swear if I have the money, I might have the impulse to buy every new gadget that catches my fancy.

Oh well, maybe that is why I don’t have the money. So that I will not buy impulsively.
