The generation we are now is a global world, where almost everything is available to us on the internet, and we have multiple pampamered shoppers who buy anything they come across at a flash both the one they need and those they don’t need. Statistics have it that we no longer use items to their maximum life. We buy, throw, and replace things very fast. This way we end up wasting our hard earned money and polluting the environment. Aside that, we all know the level of economy reccession in the country now. Would it not be better to use money judiciously? Buy quality products and buy according to use. How, you ask? Try buying used or second-hand products. There is no point paying full-price when you can get the same quality and at better deals (BELGIUM USED)

Below are list of items you can buy used and maintain your savings:

1.Household Appliances for Rented Homes

I love the idea of new appliances but when you move a lot like I do, it makes no sense to spend a lot of money on them. With each move, things wear out. Few bumps and scratches are inevitable. And technology changes fast. Also, we all have this fantasy and taste of decorating our home with the lastest products. Then why waste money now? Save till you move into your own home. Microwaves, ACs, TV, Washing Machines are a few items that can easily be bought on the internet. Try jumia, konga. etc

2.Designer Products
It is no fact that designer product are very very expensive – the likes of apple laptop, iPhone,hermes product, original Gucci product. I have found out that those who really want it, buy it second-hand. What a great idea this is! Designers products are ridiculously overpriced. If someone wants to own a bag, watch, or dress, and can’t afford it on full-price, buying second-hand is a great way to fulfill your desire without burning a hole in your pocket. There are many legitimate websites that sell second-hand designer stuff and they certify it on request.

3.Plastic Toys for Children
Almost every child like toys, toys is just something children can do without. However,children grow fast and tend to change their toys, just as they grow out of clothes too. They learn and lose interest. They want a brand new toy every now and then. As we all know toys are very expensive, buying second-hand makes much more sense. Tricycles, plastic toys, Lego sets are a few that we can be bought used.

4.Textbooks, if Syllabus has Not Changed

Textbooks cost a lot. With fees and other expenses at the beginning of the school year, it’s advisable to get second-hand textbooks and handout from our seniors. In case you know someone who is a year senior to you or your child, ask them. And don’t forget to keep yours in good shape and donate them. It saves money and protects the environment too.

5.Car for New Drivers
We all know the value of car reduces by 20% the moment we take it out of the dealership store. Then why pay the high price when you are a new driver? As a new driver, few scratches here and there are a given. Personally, I would make a mistake on the road if I’m more worried about my car than following traffic rules. For new drivers, it’s good to have a second-hand car. Buy a used car from an authorized dealer. This way you pay less money and have the best quality. Do the same for two wheelers for your growing children. You can also check out sites like ijamautos

6.One-time Use Items

I follow this principle – I never invest in a product that I would use once or I am not sure I would use again deal. There is a textbook I bought for my entrance examination which I never used again. something I can easily go and borrow for community library. Ask yourself – if you don’t intend to use a product in the next 6 months, don’t buy it from the store. Search for a second-hand online deal or renting instead.

Is there anything you would recommend buying used? Please share in comments below.

We don hear

There's a lot of sense in what you have written OP.

If you can comfortably afford the luxury of new items.. Okay.. Go ahead. But if you can relate to the benefit that the message above can provide.. Then by all means learn how best to save more on less important things to get more for the most important things.

7. Don't bother buying anything if the overall goal is just to get ratings/build street credibility/or make up for a low self-esteem!

Designers dey fade na

The Dangote's do not reason this way... I prefer to reason like adenuga, dangote, buffet etc

I will never buy a brand new iPhone again. Instead, I'll wait and buy it later when the price must have dropped drastically.

I still find new Android phones far more smarter than it's comparative iPhone model. From features down to specs.

I never wanted to believe it but now I can say that iPhones are simply over-hyped.

My opinion/view tho. No one should wail and mention me abeg.

One Dunce would always use his or her school fees, Salary , Loan or rent to buy a new Iphone, jewelry, car or electronics, and would dispose it after hunger wires his or her life, or he suffers buyers remorse.. and thats when you hit bellow the belt and buy very low, this is the way chinese and jews operate

Do not buy what you do not need, just to show off.

Hmmmh, this makes sense. Chioma is a first grade tear-rubber virgiin. Since I don't have millions to take her to Dubai, I'd rather settle for Adesuwa, a used evening paper. Her kpekus is still in good conditions though. Just a minor expansion.

My brother usually say most new TVs and sound system with LG logos or name on it are fake LG,that some people will just assemble the board and put LG logos on it... That real tokunbo LG TV and sound system are better and original. It produce good sounds and display pictures also saves money too.
