10 Purchases that Help You Save Money

By -


Spend money to save money - it may sound like an oxymoron, but the statement is true. There are many things one should buy to save money on day-to-day expenditure and on high-value items.  

Reusable Water Bottles

Carry a good food grade water bottle when you go outside. It’s a must for travellers. Instead of buying overpriced packaged water on your trip, fill filtered water from hotel, restaurant and airport to save money. I calculated - on my last trip I saved nearly 300 rupees by using a reusable water bottle.

    Very useful tips Saru. As I travel frequently keeping reusable water bottles will help as well as storage organizers are must for my house.

    You really did nail this one Saru. I agree on all except e-readers. Being old school here, but I love the feel of a book,turning of pages and usage of book-markers and so buying hard copies will always be my little indulgence :-) I need to get that storage organiser in place though.

      I ditched books as we move a lot. I had a huge library before marriage. Wish I could be like you. Stay at one place and collect books.

Rewind - September 2023

 I wrote the following in September. Sometimes, I feel I will forget the art of writing couplets because I am not writing at all this year. I strongly believe you have to practice to hone your craft. And I am not doing that. Perhaps I schedule a time to write a poem. Or I need better time management skills. Date Published 09/05/2023 मुझे उसके जाने का इतना अफ़सोस नहीं हुआ  जितना इस बात का कि इतने सालों तक उसे रहने ही क्यों दिया  Love, Saru

I Am Not Alone

Last year blessed me, He walked silently into my life. It was Love, That took me in its stride. One evening we walked holding hands, Then, I told him what I felt in heart. He said we were one soul, Who were living in parts. To bring the parts together, We fought with the world and tied the knot. Being one soul, Gave life a whole new spot. Chirping birds, floating clouds, Nature conspired for us. Always swimming against the tide, Life was in an adrenaline rush. This year cursed me, He walked silently out of my life. It was Death, That took him in its stride.       Yesterday his soul was saying, Fearing memories will fade, he can’t move on. He will stay and admire me, Standing always by my side from dusk to dawn.

Being Human

Under the roof of winter, Latches of my door open without making a sound. It's cold out there, Someone lost his ground. My soul shivers, Not that I'm cold. Someone from my land, Sleeps under the bridge while dreaming of gold. How can I... tuck myself in the quilt? When the winter storm is blowing, Hopes they have built. I have to get up, Do something... Before I start questioning who am I? And, they start saying...'Humanity dies.' Let's work out something, Take a resolution. Walk across all kinds of bridges, And, just be human... From centuries people are migrating for work or for better opportunities. But, not everyone has a smooth sailing...some live under miserable conditions. Most heart wrenching fact is nobody helps them, not even people from their own countries. I know, everybody is busy chasing the bigger purpose of life. But don't you think we should help people in need? Let's try to be better human being...
