To Dischem or Clicks .....THAT IS THE QUESTION!
Hi Starter Fashionista Mammas
Hope you all well and fabulous.This post is the first post heading in the new direction I adviced via the Public Service Announcement post I posted last week. Still struggling to get a UX design boffin in my budget to assist me with technical glitches of the blog though but I'm hopeful.As adviced most of my posts (not all) now are going to be hunting for bargains and sharing them with all my fellow sisters. pssssssst....Remeber its also for a "competition" so please please provide feed back in the comments section below!
LETS GET INTO IT !!!
Ex Clicks at our Shopping Centre soon to be replaced by Dischem |
P.S-The Dischem and Clicks visited are not in my area by on the way back home from work.i.e.The Dischem is not the new one which is still in construction at our shopping centre
Now for the exciting stuff .....LETS SHOP!!!
The Budget is R400 and I have to purchase (hopefully) all the items on my shopping list
My first stop was Dischem and Oh Happy Day because they currently running a 50% of sale on beauty products-this should make my shopping list a lot more possible.
Their shop window is clear , their displays are filled with choice and variety.The lightning by the perfumes reminds me of a model photoshoot-Glam and Fabulousness .....Most importantly the Dischem Cosmetic Sale sign IS SCREAMING COME INSIDE!!!
Although it was not easy my first stop is the Baby Section (decided to get the serious business out the way and end with the fun stuff). My son Tswelo uses Johnson and Johnsons Gentle Protect range. I once mentioned on Insta how I love their Rooibos and Honey extract smell and also that its created for toddlers-that for me means it makes babies super clean. Beside that it was the only range he didnt react too as a newborn. The Gentle Protect Bath bottle 500ml is a R59.95-(I didnt buy this item because I wanted to compare the pricing with Clicks) and the baby wipes were an absolute bargain at R for x 82packs .This combo was also on promotion so I put it in my basket,Pigeon Brand. My hubby advised he'd purchase nappies so I have money to spludge on mommy #happydance!The Huggies Pants (which he also uses) were however very steep at R199 for a pack of -so was gonna definitely scout for a cheaper price elsewhere anyway!
MOMMY TIME!!!
I started by looking for my Gentle Magic Tissue Oil which I use for my face especially with the winter making the skin and hair so dry.(I heard on the Natural Hair groups on FB it also doubles as a hair product,Gentle Magic that is so I sometimes also rub it on my hair edges).
Its a bargain at R37.99 so it goes into the basket.Will check price at Clicks for purposes of the Blog Post but I'm honestly happy with this price in it goes.
I also managed to scoop in an LA Girl BB Cream in Meduim Deep-Everyone loves themselves some LA-IT's MAKING MOVES IN THE BEAUTY CIRCUITS mostly due its concealer duo which You Tubers were using for the infamous Kim K Contour and Highlighting look.
An affordable scent which I later changed at another DISCHEM without any hassles was also purcased.I also love the fact that DISCHEM are also often if not always open till late. The CLICKS in our areas adjusted their times last year atleast. My purchases at Dischem cost me sans the toilet paper and baby soap.Clicks will be reviewed on the next day as my mini shopping spree ended at 7.
Only managed to go to Clicks a week (later)....Lets get right into .....
Ultimately I preferred the look and feel of Dischem over that of Clicks .ALTHOUGH some of the products at Clicks were relatively cheaper than those of Dischem, I love the variety and choice offered by Dischem especially MAKE UP!!!Dischem's layout and display also knocks its comepetittors out the park -consumers are very visual. THIS IS WHY I GIVE DISCHEM MY VOTE

I ALSO JUST LOVED THE ORGANISATION OF THE LA GIRL DISPLAY.IT WAS I WOULD CALL MAKE UP HEAVEN:BRIGHT COLOURS,ALL YOU NEED FOR A DECENT FACE BEAT AND GREAT PRICES!!! |

This was the display close to the door not as tantalising and inviting as Dischem....call me baise They also had a perfume sale .....Too bad I had already bought perfume |
