↞The Super Late Birthday Present↠

When Niyaz turned 2 years old on 19 August 2018, we didn't give any present to him as he already has so many toys. Niyaz has a stroller car, gifted by Uncle Telvin and Aunty Hazel during his 1st birthday celebration. However, few days after new year, my husband told me that he kinda feel pity to Niyaz, as he always push the stroller car and the car seems small for his body size now. My husband would like to buy him a electric ride-on car as Niyaz's 2 years old birthday present. 

Prior buying the car, I'm actually doing some googling about the car price. The website that I've did the survey was Lazada Malaysia, Shopee Malaysia and few online baby shops. The price is not cheap leh! So I told my hubby, why don't we go to GM Klang Wholesale City. After did some car and price survey, we ended up buying this sporty red car (refer attached photo). 

As this blog promise to you the cost-saving way to buy the toddle things, here some tips sharing:

Why buying from physical shop not online?

🚗Variety sizes of the car 

- The car comes with many sizes. Small, big, high and low. You may want to choose a car that perfectly fit your toddler. My son is 96cm tall and 16kg weight (yes, he quite big for his age). Some of the car may only carry weight up to 20kg. Depends on your opinion, but I prefer to buy a car that my son can use at least for next 5 years.

🚗Features of the car

- Different car has different features. Obviously, more expensive car comes with usb and aux ports. Colours of the car also effected the price.

🚗Immediate consultation from the sales person

- If you buy online, you will only reading the product description and when you questions about the product, you need to wait for a reply. The sales person who sold the car to use is a great guy. He  is very patient in dealing with us, especially my husband with 1001 questions!

🚗Getting physical with the car!

- The sales person let my son try any car that we wanted to try. The first car that my son rode was a bit small for him. So, we try few more cars until we are happy with the red car!

🚗Cheaper price

- The price is wayyyyyy cheaper than any online shop that I've conducted the survey. Even cheaper than Lazada. The original price for the car that we bought was RM 800 something, but they are doing promotion and it sells for RM 500. Although it consider a reasonable price in comparing with the car's quality, I still ask for bargain and ended up we bought the car with price of RM 480.

I know not everyone stay nearby GM Klang. But the morals of the story, if you are thinking to buy something that costly for your "continuously-getting-taller-and-heavier-everyday" toddler, my advise is that you may want to do a little googling before you make any purchase. Unless you have tons of money and don't mind spending. If you are like me, who want to save some money to buy make-up for herself, than perhaps you may need to spend extra time doing survey and research. 

Have fun shopping!
