As a professional who lives in a small space condominium in the city, I normally pay a lot for services. Every week I pay someone to iron my clothes, I thought this was ok but as I go through my monthly-expense check-up, I noticed that it is taking too much of my expenses and that's when I decided to find a way how to eliminate that expense. I went to the nearest department store to look for an ironing board, as I go through different ironing boards, I realized that all of them are big and bulky which is not ideal for my small space. I also went online to look for an ironing board but to no avail.
One day, I went abroad and stayed in a fancy 5-star hotel, as I was unpacking my clothes to hang them in the closet, there I noticed a folded ironing board hanging in the closet. At first, I was hesitant to check the folded ironing board because I haven't seen anything like it before. As I open the folded ironing board, that's where I realized that this is the ironing board that I was looking for!!! It's compact and at the same time very sturdy. I used the foldable ironing board that night and placed it on my bed to iron all my clothes. I was so surprised because I thought to myself that this foldable ironing board can really do its job very well. While using the foldable ironing board, it didn't shake and there was no crease in the middle when unfolded and after using the foldable ironing board, I easily folded it and store it inside the closet. Nowhere to be seen in the room.
As a minimalist and aesthetic person, this really ticks my boxes. As my trip was about to end, I thought of taking home the foldable ironing board since I can store it in my regular sized back pack because itβs so compact but then my conscience and my moral ground was saying not to do it. I checked online to look for the same foldable ironing board but to no avail. I went down to the receptionist to ask if they know where do they get there foldable ironing board, but to my dismay, they also don't know. Fortunately, the branch manager was on the side and heard our conversation and asked me why do I need to know where they get their foldable ironing board, as I share my story about how I want to cut my monthly expenses, the branch manager smiled and agreed with me, he leaned on me and whispered who were their supplier and he gave me the contact details of their supplier.
I immediately called the supplier after coming back home and asked if I could order one for myself, they said that they have a minimum order quantity of 500pcs and I was shocked because why would I need 500 pcs when I only needed one. I pondered and think carefully for a week on what would I do with the 500 pcs of foldable ironing board and realized that there are other people like me who has the same problem who wants to save MONEY, SPACE or just become a MINIMALIST or AESTHETIC. That's when I decided to buy all the 500pcs. It would be my service to all the people who has the same problem like me, they don't have to go through all the hardships I have experienced, from online and hunting to look through department stores, and for buying 500pcs just to have 1 for themselves.
After a couple of months of using the foldable ironing board, I saved a lot of money and decided to put it in my savings account. Sometimes, I buy nice things for myself since I have saved quite a lot. I realized that there's so much I can save if I do things on my own. I'm glad I started ironing my clothes. Now I'm looking for other things in my list of expenses to cut down and do them on my own
