Milo - Price increase 5%-7%

My favourite Milo will increase price next month from 5%-7%. There might be increase for other products under Nestle too : (

Guess it is time for me to keep some stock for Milo since I'm "Miloholic"

Hope there is no price increase for baby milk products, otherwise I need to tighten my belt again as my children are "Milkaholic" ;p

Full Paying Patient (FPP) at Putrajaya Hospital

I had delivered my first child at private hospital and it costs me RM 6k+ (Caesarean + 4 bedded ward). When I get my 2nd pregnancy in year 2012 (delivered in year 2013), I plan to deliver at government hospital with "privatised" service. So, I opt for FPP at Putrajaya Hospital.

For the 1st seven month pregnancy, I still visit my gynaecology clinic at Puchong and request my Dr to write a letter to Putrajaya Hospital for FPP. From 8 month pregnancy onward, I do all my check up at Putrajaya. Check up costs is about RM 110, which I found slightly higher than my gynaecology clinic (RM 90).

I gave birth naturally for my 2nd child and it costs me RM 1.7k under FPP program. The stitch is done by Dr. (5 minutes) instead of nurse/trainee as I heard that nurse/trainee will take up 30-45 mins for stitching.

For FPP, normally they will give you single bed but subject to availability. Else they will provide 2 bedded ward but still charge you the same price as single bed. It's OK for me to take 2 bedded ward, as I will not stay long in the hospital, and motivate me to get down from bed and walk, so that I could discharge on next day.

Make your own lunch

Eating outside sometimes quite pricey especially when there is no hawker stall around the office area, force to dine in restaurant and easily costs each person RM 10-15. In order to save costs, I will make my own lunch.

Normally I will prepare my lunch box a day earlier. It's very easy, just cook macaroni and let it cold, store in container and put inside the fridge. Meantime, I will clean the lettuce (for salad) and store in container, and put inside the fridge as well.

The next morning, get these 2 containers (macaroni & salad), salad dressing and mayo. Bring these 4 together to office and mix yourself. (^-^)
