The Mr. DIY Trap: We Walked In for One Thing, And We Left With Everything πŸ˜†

in Hive PH β€’ 5 days ago

▫️ Mr. DIY is a SCAM πŸ˜† ▫️

Have you ever walked into a store to look for 1 thing and ended up buying a bag full of items? πŸ˜‚

Well, that always happens to me when I shop at Mr. DIY.

A few days ago, my husband accidentally broke our desk mirror. Since we are planning to go to the supermarket, we will also drop by Mr. DIY. For those who do not know, Mr. DIY is a home improvement and lifestyle store with its popular motto "Always low prices". Compared to other stores, Mr. DIY is well lit, well-organized, and fully air-conditioned; that's why it's convenient for me to shop there.

As we entered, we were greeted by a display of cute keychains and hair accessories. I don't really need one, but I grabbed a marble-designed hair clamp. πŸ˜†



We needed a mirror, so we scoured all the shelves in each aisle.

I don't know why, but we also checked the kitchen aisle. πŸ˜‚ There were nice pans and kitchen tools.

I grabbed a frother because I suddenly felt the need to have one. πŸ˜†

I noticed some cute mugs in different colors and designs, but nope, I don't need them. I have a lot of cups and mugs already.

I need a mirror, not a mug 🀣


I passed by the stationery and crafts aisle. There was some cute stuff.

Oh my!!! I've been looking for this big pencil. I saw this from one of my students, and I wanted to have one as well.

BUT 🀚 I NEED A MIRROR! Not a BIG PENCIL 😜

So, I just grabbed a few cute stickers for my nieces πŸ˜‚


I looked around and saw more nice and cute stuff like this mouse and night lamps. 😍

After a few minutes, tada!!!

Finally, a MIRROR 😍

Phew! I found what I need. I can finally pay and go. uuuhhhmm 😝

I saw my husband with a basket full of stuff. πŸ˜‚

There was a small fan, a pack of cute pens and markers for our daughter, and a ladle- yes, a ladle. πŸ˜‚

That's the reason why some people say Mr. DIY is a scam.

Look at us, we just need a mirror, but we ended up bringing home kitchen tools, hair accessories, a fan, markers, and more.

And I really wanna buy that BIG PENCIL. Should I go back and get it? πŸ€”πŸ˜‚

Hahaha, relatable talaga! πŸ˜„ Ganyan din ako sa Mr. DIYβ€”papasok para sa isang bagay, tapos paglabas may dala nang kung anu-ano. Ang hirap pigilan kapag ang daming useful at affordable na items. πŸ˜‚πŸ›’

hehe, true.. sa ibang lifestyle store di ko bet kasi mainit at masikip.. dito sa Mr. DIY ang comfortable lng maglibot2 and malinis mga items nila kaya ma iingganyo ka talaga bumili πŸ˜‚
!LOL

Hahaha totoo! πŸ˜‚ Ang dali talagang mapatagal sa Mr. DIY kasi komportable mag-ikot at maayos ang pagkaka-display ng mga items. Minsan napapabili na lang kahit wala sa original na listahan! πŸ˜€

!!!

Basta Mr.DIY hirap na tayu makalabas πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ganda ng mga stuffs nila..kaya minsan lang ako ng DIYπŸ˜‚..parang ang tingin ko sa lahat ng gamit bibilhin koπŸ˜‚

πŸ˜‚ oo noh, kahit yong ngayon m lng nakita, sasabihin mo, kailangan mo..
naging mayaman bigla sa loob ng Mr DIY πŸ˜†

Hahaha true paglabas mo magulat ka nlng naubos na 1k mo pambili ng minsan di gaano mahalaga ng bagayπŸ˜‚

this is so relatable πŸ˜‚ every time i go to mr diy i always leave with things i never planned to buy too and yes i think you should go back for that giant pencil πŸ˜† YOLO!!

just looking for a way to go back, πŸ˜†πŸ˜‚

Mapapabili ka talaga nang wala sa oras. Pero I admire your discipline and self-control kasi hindi mo nilagay sa basket mo yung mga nakita mo at kahit pa yung big pencil na gusto mo 😍

hehe,, I grabbed a few pero yong maliliit lng, wahaha
next time, magdadala nlng cguro ako ng amount na swak sa bibilhin ko para di na mapagastos, wahaha
!LOL

Hehe It's always someone else's fault, hehe You made me laugh, hehe

😁 always

I would never buy a $2 hair clip there, haha. I can easily find something so much cheaper online. πŸ˜† I always see Mr. DIY, as they've boomed in branches, but I never had the chance to actually go inside the store. So many cute stuff! ✨

ohh, I just noticed the $2 hair clip πŸ˜†
I grabbed a much cheaper one, less than a dollar. Compared to some local stores, Mr DIY products are more durable so far, and cute.
