As there are plenty of sales and promotions to look out for, it\u2019s important to stick to your budget and not overspend. Using a credit card as your main form of payment is great as it can give you great cashbacks and rewards in the long run, but the most important factor is to pay it back on time! Delays in payment would only see all your efforts in saving being lost in the long run. It will also affect you in other unpleasant ways<\/a> that you would want to avoid as well, such as getting a bad credit report that would affect your ability to get loans or credit cards in the future.<\/p>\n

So it\u2019s always good to consider your budget, to buy what you need from these deals and stretch your Ringgit. Most importantly, strive to pay off your debt on time to make it all worthwhile. \u00a0Happy shopping and have a great Merdeka!<\/p>\n
