Shopping Errands While Travelling??

上一回我哋提到旅行買手信, 咁買手信都算係一份心意, 相信大家都會話隨緣啦.. 今日我哋就嚟講一講, 當有人知你將會去旅行, 就二話不說託你買嘢, 甚至直頭俾張購物清單你.. 嘩!! 係唔係即刻冷汗一標, 唔知要如何回應?? 其實唔係唔想幫, 不過有時啲人又真係老實唔容氣, 細細件嘅都尚好, 嗰啲大大件又食位嘅, 就唔該為別人著想下啦!! 人哋係去亨受假期, 唔係奉旨幫你購物囉.. 咁應承咗人買, 就成個trip都會諗住啲嘢, 又要去搵又要去格價又要出住錢先去買, 買咗以為可以鬆一口氣, 點知又要成個trip保管住怕整爛, 你都唔好話冇壓力!! 好喇, 安全回家喇, 又要安排時間見面交貨, 遇到啲唔平又唔貴嘅嘢, 又唔知收唔收錢好, 收錢又唔知人哋係唔係當手信咁expect喎?? 又唔知係唔係買啱嘢喎?? 總知就係幾煩啦.. 所以我如果冇乜需要, 都唔想麻煩人(除非人哋親口問我有冇嘢要買), 同樣地都希望人哋唔好俾太大麻煩我, 哈哈!! 大家熟就冇所謂, 不過唔熟就無謂搞咁多嘢囉.. 錢財債易清, 但人情債係欠一世呀, 認同嗎?? :p

we talked about buying souvenirs when we go traveling in the previous post, and many agreed that it's something "maybe" since it's all about the thoughts.. so, today let's talk about what if someone knew you are going to travel, without hesitation ask for your favour to help him/her to shop for something, or even pass you a detailed shopping list?? wow, rather overwhelmed and do not know how to react, other then cold sweat?? it's not that we do not want to help, but at times there are many who are overexcited and forgotten about considerations, small items of course not an issue but bulky ones that take up space would surely be a burden!! just think, people go to enjoy their holidays and are not obliged to run shopping errands for you.. and after promising to help, one whole trip you are thinking about the shopping list, find - compare price - fork out money - buy, and when you thought it's a relief after you bought them, now worry how you are going to carry and safeguard them throughout the entire journey, not that this is something not stressful huh?? okay, and after you get home safely, you still need to arrange to meet up and pass the stuffs.. when it comes to something not cheap and also not expensive, you fall into a dilemma whether to take the money, if you do then you may not know if that was expected to be some kind of souvenirs for them?? and you do not know if what your bought is really what he/she asked for?? in short, it gets troublesome I'll say.. hence if not really necessary, I will not want to trouble others (unless I was asked what I want), similarly I also do not hope to get too much of trouble, haha!! closed ones still alright, but not closed ones, better don't lah.. it's easy to pay off money you owed others, but the favor you asked for will remain a favor you owe, agree?? :p
