Writer’s Workshop: She said that?

Side profile of Tiger girl

Tiger girl has been talking a lot since she was two. What started off as single words morphed into short sentence and now into lengthy discussions.  At 3 years old she is able to have a two sided conversation with you , voice out her own opinion together with a lengthy explanation.

Just the other day I was sharing on my Facebook status  about the stern 3yr old housekeeper which I have. We seldom cook on the weekend and normally eat out or pack lunch or dinner back. As my hand phone was still in the charger I didn’t bother to unplug it and bring along.

When I came back I received a shelling from Tiger girl.

This is what she said.
“Mummy why didn’t you tell me that you were going out to buy dinner?
Do you know that you need to let me know if you are going out?
Why didn’t you inform me and bring me along?
Why didn’t you bring your phone along?
Do you know that I called you but there was no answer because you didn’t bring your phone along ?
Next time bring your phone when you go out so I can call you.. understand???
It really sounded like an what I would have said to a teenager rather then something from a 3 year old.

What have your kids said that made your cringe?

RedMart Your Convenient Online Grocery Store

 

My Loot

My Loot

Shopping for groceries has never been easier since I discovered that I can shop online for groceries at RedMart. You be amazed at how easy it is to shop from the comfort of your home.

Redmart's website

Redmart’s website

The website is very user friendly. The main page is uncluttered and you are given two options on how to look for the products which you would like to purchase.

1) You can look through the various categories.

2) Search for the item directly by keying the name within the  search box at top of the screen.

The category and subcategories

The category and subcategories

If you have clicked on the category above – Food Cupboard (Number 1), you will see that the website would have opened up into a sub-page which displays the items under the heading – Rice, Noodles & Pasta.( Number 2) .  

You can even look at just all the brands of instant noodles they offer by clicking directly on the sub category- “Instant Noodles”.


If a particular item is no longer in stock the word “Sold Out” will be highlighted over the item like for the Royal Umbrella Fragrant Rice as shown above.

If the small icons are hard for you to view you have the option to have the packaging enlarged so you can have a clear look at the package . You can even study the ingredient list on the back of the packaging if  so you will know if the item is made from ingredients which are suitable for your dietary needs.

Looking at cooking oil

Looking at cooking oil

Cooking oil is one item which is used up very quickly in our house. I prepare all 3 meals for the kids at home on the weekdays so there is a lot of cooking done.  As you can see in the screenshot above you have the option to add the item to cart or add to your wish list if it is currently out of stock.

Checking out the shopping cart

Checking out the shopping cart

As you add items to the shopping cart  the amount that you spent is automatically being tallied up.  By clicking onto the shopping trolley you will be able to see the items which you have selected and the amount you have spent so far.

Adding an item to the cart

Adding an item to the cart

As you add your shopping item to the cart you will be able to see the amount you will need to spend ( Minimum of $75) to get free delivery.  This is clearly shown in the blue bar at the top of the screen in the screen shot above.

Input your delivery address

Input your delivery address

Once you have confirmed the items you wish to purchase it is time to move on to the next screen where you have to enter the following data

– Address

– Contact Number

– Email address.

Choosing the delivery timing

Choosing the delivery timing

With the delivery details sorted out it is time to choose when you wish to have the items delivered. The next screen is a calendar whereby you are able to select the timing and day of delivery.  The deliveries are in two hour time slots and they promise to get the food delivered within your chosen slot.

 

Making Payment

Making Payment

Once you have confirmed  the timing for the  delivery of  the items you will be sent to the next screen whereby you can choose your mode of payment. There are three modes of payment- Cheque, Visa or via Paypal.

See it’s that simple!!

The whole shopping process took less then 30 minutes and a e-mail confirmation was sent immediately to me once I have completed my order. The goods were delivered on stipulated date and during the given timing. The delivery man even called before he came to ensure that I was at home to receive the delivery.

Won’t you consider shopping with RedMart too?
