Entry ni untuk kak nita and azi… geng2 MBW.

baru2 ni kitorang beli IttiBitti (lagi??) Ada 1-DAY SALE ONLY kt website dia. 

25% on each item and 20% on value package items. 

so barangan yg dibeli ada set 6 pack CD Snap-In-One, masa tu harga AUD120 je.
Harga asal sgt mahal tau, AUD150. So jatuh satu IB SIO = 120/6 = AUD 20.00


Lepas tu memang nak order booster, sbb yg lama dah oldies tp cover minky dia masih elok lagi.
So ku order 2 boosters = AUD 17.50 

Kak Nita pulak nak order Bitti Brite AIO satu, mungkin tertawan dengan patternnya, dengan sale ni AUD18.75 harganya. 

 

So ini adalah order IttiBitti tempoh hari:

 

Tak terkira gembiranya hati sebab IB jual murah kan…

tp lepas checkout, kena tunggu invoice lain untuk harga shipping.

bila diorang email balik, harga shipping ke Malaysia guna registered AUD37.60.
MAK OI, MAHALNYER!!
sebab parcel beratnyer 1.5kg.

Hmm… nak buat macam mana byr jelah kan..
 

Untuk memudahkan pengiraan postage berapa kena bayar, kita kirakan ada 8 item utama.
Anggaplah booster 2 unit berat sama dengan satu CD (boleh kan??)

So untuk postage : AUD 37.60/8 =  AUD 4.7 setiap satu item.

Currency rate pada ketika itu 3.096, tp bila check statement Maybank CC charge ku 3.15.

Jadi untuk Azi:

Beli 2 IB SIO:
(AUD 20 + AUD 4.7) x 2 =  AUD 49.40

Oleh itu
AUD 49.40 x 3.15 = RM155.61, dengan itu satu IB jatuh RM77.81 (“,)
Hope you’re happy with that!

Untuk Kak Nita

Beli 2 IB SIO + 1 Bitti Brite:
(AUD 20 + 4.70) x 2 + (AUD 18.75 + AUD 4.70) = AUD 49.40 + AUD 23.45
= AUD 72.85 x 3.15
= RM 229.48

ok tak?? bargain tau ni… hehe… sebab harga CD tu kat sini RM92, sale pun RM83 (tak byk colour or size option)

bila sampai nnt, kita meet-up or i send thru registered post je nnt…



so next time ada sale macam ni, nak join beli lagi tak?? ahaks :p 

please email me when you read this blog entry… hehe… :D

don’t u just love seeing all the CDs are washed and clean, ready to be used for the day (“,)  


i am grateful to so many people; elly, shida, farrah, tinytapir that i’m now using CD on izzuddin. 

ada orang tanya mana CD lagi baik… ku tak boleh nak bagi review on many CD sbb dalam koleksi stash izzuddin tak byk jenama yg ada. and the same brand i’ve been using for nursery, which to me just serves the purpose. 

it depends on your preference.. 
mcm kusuka velcro poket utk nursery use, abi pun senang guna.
contoh lunatots. boleh cari kat srisuri

macam ittibitti suka pakai kt rumah, memang minky best… tp izzuddin pakai CD ni, kalau tahi nyer cair, mmg confirm bocor. payah gak… so ku confident pakai selepas dia dah buang air besar. 

grobaby boleh cari kt tinytapir… kadang2 ku suka guna ni… lebih efektif kalau dia dah buang air besar dalam CD lain, then tukar grobaby insert (cover guna 2x) bila dia buang air kecil sahaja. tahan lama 3jam. 

Happy Heiny OS, fitting sgt besar!! tp ku beli 2nd hand je… 

Drybees sizing generous.. setakat ni izzuddin masih size Medium. ok, fair fair je bagi aku. 

fitted diapers pulak? ku beli jamtots pun dari forumner dalam diaperasia… lama tak beli second hand CD… 
tak berani masuk dah forum tu, takut terbeli lagi.. haha… 
baby beehind beli sekali dengan naz.. so so je review… bolehlah tahan 6-8jam dengan cover motherease (pun beli 2nds) 

oh, ku ada beli wool pants, tp belum sempat snap pics and post info about it… nanti ku try buat review. 

suka kalau ada mothers or mother-to-be yang interested nak guna CD untuk anak2… 
timbalah pengalaman tentang jenis2 CD kat sini dan Autumn Beck byk bagi review menarik
selepas tu google je cari all those website malaysia yang jual CD. 
aku warning siap2 jangan beli terlebih pulak… tujuan berCD adalah untuk berjimat di masa hadapan… 
setakat yg ada dalam stash ni, dah cover byk dah (berbulan2) kos disposable diaper. 
ni a few of my posts on CD (masa aku gila2 beli CD awal2 dulu) 

All the best in embracing parenthood :D

Penggunaan modern cloth diaper bagi saya adalah sangat menjimatkan…. 
dari segi apa penjimatan ni?? 
“alah, you beli dahlah mahal… pastu kena basuh lagi, kena guna air washing machine lagi….jimat apa tu??” ini antara persoalan yang sering saya dengar bila saya ceritakan yang saya gunakan cloth diaper


Jadi, dari segi apa yang jimatnyer?? Macam mana yang saya kira boleh jimat tu?? 
Begini, cuba anda beritahu berapa penggunaan disposable diapers anda sebulan?? 
Rata-rata kata RM100+ sebulan…. selalunya 2-3 packet yang M80 tu… kalau Drypers, bolehlah dapat RM35 satu paket. Kalau mahal sikit, RM45 untuk mamypoko… betul kan?? 


Jadi sebulan anda menghabiskan RM45 x 2 = RM95 sebulan. 
Kalau dah 5 bulan?? RM95 x 5 = RM475… kalau setahun?? RM95 x 12 = RM1140


Hmmm.. kalau 2 tahun?? Dah RM2280… betul kan saya kira ni?? hehe…. 


Jadi bagaimana pula pengiraan modern cloth diaper?? 
Ambillah purata satu cloth diaper berharga RM50. Dan anda perlu menggunakan sekurang2nya 5 diaper sehari. Saya suka kira 6 sehari… jadi RM50 x 6 = RM300. 
Selalunya cycle basuh 2 hari sekali, jadi anda perlukan 18 x RM50 = RM900. 


Campur dengan sabun ‘special’ dia, boleh tahan 3-4bulan satu botol = RM18, 2 tahun/3bulan = 8 x RM18 = RM144
Campurkan penambahan air dan elektrik sebulan RM10, setahun RM120. Dua tahun RM240. 


Oleh itu = RM900 + RM144 + RM240 = RM1280!!  Anda dah jimat RM1000 di situ… 


seterusnya jika anda rezeki murah, mendapat anak seterusnya dalam masa terdekat… anda tambahkan sahaja RM50 x 12 = RM600, atau anak kedua boleh terus menggunakan cloth diaper anak pertama… 


jadi berapa anda boleh jimat disitu?? banyak kan… :D  


Saya mengesyorkan pembelian cloth diaper lunatots poket kerana ia kemas, praktikal, dan anda boleh tambah insert untuk penggunaan lebih lama (malam terutamanya). Saya gunakan brand ini untuk nursery kerana ia velcro, sama seperti penggunaan dispo tetapi anda cuma pesan babysitter/pengasuh supaya masukkan dalam wetbag diaper yang telah kotor. 


Pakej istimewa lunatots, 5 CD velcro + 5 insert = RM235 (harga asal RM51 x 5 = RM255)
kalau 10 CD velcro + 10 insert = RM470… 


Insert tambahan RM15 satu. 


Seandainya anda berminat, bolehlah hubungi saya di purpledream34@gmail.com….. dan dengan segera saya akan menguruskan pembeliaan dengan marketing director lunatots… 


Seandainya anda tinggal berdekatan, saya boleh membuat demonstrasi pembasuhan, penjagaan dan pengurusan cloth diaper supaya anda lebih bersemangat untuk menggunakan cloth diaper… 


Gambar di bawah adalah koleksi lunatots poket izzuddin.. alhamdulillah, semuanya masih elok lagi walaupun digunakan setiap hari!! 


Apa kata, kita sama2 bantu dunia untuk kurangkan pembuangan sampah sarap di landfill tu. 
Hijaukan bumi anda :D

Pertemuan singkat sebelum berbuka puasa di rumah forumner tumitu (haza) sabtu lepas amat memberangsangkan… eh, nape saya berjumpa tumitu yer?? hehe…

ku dah ada niat nak fully CD izzuddin termasuk di nursery…
jadi, utk menjayakan misi kedua penting selepas penyusuan ibu, ku terus membeli CD lunatots velcro versi ketiga…

kali ini, versi ketiga ini terdapat 15warna dan tiga printed yang merambangkan mata…
inner fleece juga lebih lembut, dan terdapat penutup poket supaya bum baby tak terkena microfibre insert. ooh, tak lupa, insert juga lebih panjang dari insert versi pertama… saya suka :D

inilah hasil pembelian yang ku harapkan boleh digunakan lama… 10 CD + 10 insert = RM470 sahaja

nanti ku tangkapkan gambar perbezaan antara lunatots versi pertama (snap) dengan versi ketiga (velcro)
jadi, i’m all set for today’s nursery…

dengan berbekalkan 5CD dan satu wetbag… CD dah ku lapik dengan flushable liner utk memudahkan pengasuh membuang sebarang poo.. hmmm… apa lagi yer??
rasanya semangat dan tunjuk ajar pada pengasuh jelah yang tinggal.
harap2 mereka tak bersungut yer… dahlah ku berikan mereka kerja tambahan utk memanaskan susu ibu… hehe… setakat ini, mereka tak pernah lagi bersungut, Alhamdulillah….
insyaAllah… misi utk berfully CD ini akan berjaya!! yeah…
mungkkin bila dah berjaya ni, saya ada perasaan mahu jadi reseller CD lah… boleh ker?? hehe…
apa misi anda untuk mengurangkan waste di dunia ini?? also langkah penjimatan dalam kos hidup yang semakin meningkat? jomlah share di sini…

i love shopping at TinyTapir website…

i’m like a fan there, opening it’s site every 2-3 days for new promotion.
saw the latest product that they will be stocking:

RUMPAROOZ G2 ONE SIZE DIAPER


is debuting and i am soooo tempted…
yes, this is another cloth diaper entry… haha…

as my previous entry, i went to their TT store in Ampang last week, and the SA: nisya (i think?) was very kind of letting me see all the cloth diapers.
Rumparooz was one CD that i touched for quite a while but as abi was sitting on the sofa, hmmm… nope i thought, not today… teehee…
so i bought the Rumparooz inserts only

now that there having a Rumparooz giveaway… could my dream be true??
Li, can i have it??? :D

my history of buying at TT is quite good… let’s see, what have i bought there??

1. Thirsties AIO size small
2. Clothdiaperwholesale OS pocket
3. Angel Baby Bottom
4. Cloth wipes (previous bought and shared shipping with Elly)
5. Baby wipes solution
6. RUME bag… my favourite!! i brought it latest with me on OU J-card day, and it was a lifesaver… haha, no need for a trolley and people were looking at it coz it was quite a superb design
7. more cloth wipes
8. Littlepod SSC, pattern Earth
9. latest one, Grobaby OS (again, shared buying with Elly)
Li Chan is so nice in her emails and quick in replying and updating me on my parcel.
seriously, you can count on her website to shop online and i can superbly recommend her on the malaysianonline baby shop if she is listed there.
oh, another thing that i so feel great to say about her policy..
she’s not fond of plastic bags, and you might not get one at her TT shop if you purchase there.
so u have to bring your own plastic bag or put the items in your handbag.
or maybe, u might end up buying one of the RUME shopbag, which for me is very convenient anyway!!

my friend naz asked pureen HAD yg mana, which i did mention during gathering-picnic sg congkak tempoh hari… 

so let’s just put some pics and steps to show how i wash the CDs: 

1. mula2 after baby pee or poo kt CD, bersihkan then put inside pail. sometimes i do drypail (biar all CD tak dibasuh until washing day, if all pee only) or semi-wet pail (rinse the CDs thoroughly before putting in pail) dan selalunya hari kedua baru ku basuh in washing machine.



2. masa nak basuh dalam washing machine (WM), ku buat prewash dulu.
tgk setting WM tu, i put SPEEDY, pastu setting WASH & SPIN sahaja. 
jangan letak any detergent, since this is only a prewash. setting air skit jelah, sekadar kita rasa air tu boleh bilas the CD.  





3. after WM bunyi beeeppp…. now time for washing. 
put detergent skit je. in this case, pureen HAD amount 1/3 of 1/2 cupfull… so 1/6 cup full lah… 


contohnya gambar sini

don’t put too much detergent sbb detergent yg berlebihan boleh menyebabkan CD bocor sebab detergent buildups. masa ni NORMAL setting air boleh lah put MEDIUM or 3/4HIGH macam yang ku buat sebab memang CD part time only, weekends use HIGH. the more the water, the cleaner the better. sebab the WM is fully auto, so usually rinse dia buat 2 kali kan?? so dijamin bersih, insyaAllah. 

4. jangan lupa basuh baldi yg digunakan, sbb still ada saki baki pee kan. so bila dah membasuh, CD yg masuk semula baldi tak kotor semula. now sidailah CD warna warni tu :D

latest CD collection… (CD as in cloth diaper, not compact disc… hehe)



GAD size medium… colour saturn blue. kinda small, but i guess sized CD are trim. outer is soft PUL, inside is suedecloth.

snaps at the sides so no velcro tab problem or droopy wings issues.

Haven’t tried it yet, will do it tomorrow when sending izzuddin to nursery.
oh yeah, already send izzuddin in CD during the morning though he’s still in dispo during their daycare. just want them to get familiar with the CDs.

Drybees size medium… very generous sizing… still think it’s a bit too big for izzuddin, so will only try this one during weekends so i can monitor the performance.

laundry folding tabs for washing care

all bought from EZmotherhood

still eyeing on the cowprints, or jaguar printed one size happy heiny… hehe…
but not this month coz got something else to play with, once it arrives :D
