If you haven't read my first thrift post to Family Bundle Ampang, check it out here! Few days ago, I went and had a look at Subangs' thrift outlet, Jalan Jalan Japan. MY EXPERIENCE Environment : Once you enter the outlet, you get the feel of a higher class thrift shop. All the clothes are clean and not dusty. The smell of thrifted...
Streetwear brand Supreme had recently collaborated with high fashion brand Louis Vuitton on a new collection. Just a gist into the collection, they released a wallet that is literally reselling now for $1400 and a hoodie for $10,000. Pretty expensive to cough up RM50,000 for a jacket and a bloody wallet. For Louis Vuitton, these prices can be considered lower than standard but...
I had gone to Family Bundle located in Ampang and had a decent time there. WHAT IS A BUNDLE? Most people know what it is, but this is for those who don't know. A bundle shop is an outlet where they sell pre-loved / used items for very low price. For instance you can get this Gianna Valentino button collared long sleeve t-shirt...
On Reddit r/streetwear, a user named cokeslurpees posted a picture of what appears to be Supreme tagged blank t-shirts in Kmart which is equivalent to Jusco, Aeon and Tesco in Malaysia. Here is the gist of it : American Apparel closed down all it's outlets, so they have a lot of extra t-shirts to letgo. Kmart quickly saw the potential and bought the...

Coins, dimes, pennies, syiling, sekupang, sen, useless, however you call it. A good amount of people hate them and show no interest. I encourage people to take back the change from their Starbucks orders and save up, here's why...

in layman's terms, the useless pieces of metal we all know and don't love. I understand why, it's heavy takes space, unorganized and so on, but it still posesses value.
Speaking from a student's perspective, being broke isn't fun, but once you go home and check your stash of coins ready to be used, it brings a sense of relief that you have more than RM5 to your net worth.
HOW ?
My way of keeping coins is pretty straightforward. First of all, at the store, do not refuse them and just jam them into your pockets or wallets. Some people bring extra pouches just for coins. Once you come home, have a cup or container just for your stash of coins.
In my experience, I advice you to use tin cans. Depending on your money management skills, you will take coins out of the stash and that can effect the mound of cash you want to have in the hopefully near future.
Upside :
When you use a tin can, preferably Arizona Lemon Tea can in my case, you are not able to take out any coins unless you cut it open. Yet, it is a stage to where you tell yourself, NO, fill it up until it overflows.
Also, the reason I use Arizona tin cans is because it holds a larger volume than a normal can. Which in the long run would give me more satisfaction. It also gives your room that tumblr asthetic, why not.
Downside :
The only downside is in Malaysia at least, you can fit all coins except 50 cent ones where I myself keep in a McDonalds Mcflurry Cup.
THE BEST PART!
Once you fill your stash up, struggling to even lift it, then it is time to go to the bank.
Unknown to a lot of people, there is a coin machine. In my case, I was at Maybank. I was so new to it, it took a while to figure it out. I kept observing other people use it and pouring coins worth up to RM1000 a.k.a RM1k, which made me just go, "wau!".
Basically, what you do is just pour in the coins onto the belt that brings them in and the numbers start rising slowly. I poured in all the coins from their homes, Arizona can, McD cup, plastic bags.
I forgot how much I made at the time but if I remember correctly and logically, I had about RM200 cashed into my account.
I was so happy, after months of saving, I had cut open the can, and saw the results :)
YOU CAN MAKE HUNDREDS
I really urge people to keep their coins and stack up. I can't wait till my next deposit.
It's going to take a while, but the coin machine is waiting for me!
Tell me about your experience with coins, I'm sure there are many out there :)
Tyler The Creator's new album of 2017 is by far miles away from CHERRY BOMB. Scum Fuck Flower Boy is so intriguing that when I read through all the lyrics and delved deeper into what they meant on genius.com, I literally clapped. People see Tyler as this out there, rebellious young guy but dig a bit deeper and it'll change your mind. Can't...
We all love ukulele covers, bought a ukulele now what ahaha. Here are simple ukulele chords to start off. Off course you have to practice strumming but your other hand won't be as natural finessing into different awkward positions, especially if you're new into playing music so here are a few chords. These three chords are the basics as I started....
