Househusband "Yuki"

 Here, in my house there are two homemakers, housewife "Mieko", and househusband "Yuki". 

One of characters of homemakers is, to stick to "small discount" --- probably. And often think about not only discount price, but also getting service points which can exchange money. 

The other day, we bought a new heater at an big electronic shop. Of course before going there Yuki researched the price on the net. And he decided to go the shop directly.  

But, when we went to a homecenter another day, we happened to know that the same heater was sold at cheaper price. He was so shocked than me. In his mind he had no choice to look for electrical goods which are a little bit expensive or reliable branded , at a homecenter.

Well, at homecenter he buys his alcohol.  We thought bigger bottles are more reasonable than small bottles considering the capacity. He happened to calculate. What made us surprised was 4 litter of plastic bottles were more expensive than 1.8 litter of paper packs. (I don't know how much they are)

Anyway he has started to show an interest such a small thing (he used the word before)

It is fun.

Additionally, there are some super markets and drug stores around my house.

I decide where to go by checking whether the things I want are sold or not. For example, though I make home made yogurt, the germ? is dealt with at a supermarket. So I try to go there on sales days. I tend to stick to a brand.

On the other hand, for Yuki, the most important thing is more inexpensive price. So he researched all prices of his alcohol,  vegetable juice, and so on at all stores. And he decides where to go by what he buys.

And except of a homecenter, we usually walk to these stores. When we walk, our pademoters also work.  We installed a city health app. So walking steps exchange into city health points, and we can exchange the points into book coupons or so on.
