Why I Passed on a 30% Off Mug 30％オフのマグカップを買わなかった理由
I have several mugs at home, and I usually rotate between about four of them. Of course, I can only use one at a time, so some people might think owning four is excessive. However, I find it convenient to have a few, for a change of mood and to reduce washing.
A couple of years ago, I accidentally dropped one of my mugs, and it shattered. I was heartbroken because it had been a gift from my best friend. She had even given me a matching plate, which has sadly been left without its partner ever since. I was so shocked that I still haven’t told her what happened.
The other day, while browsing at the mall, I saw a cute mug that was 30% off. It was under 1,000 yen, so I considered buying it. But knowing how clumsy I am, I hesitated in the end. Maybe a stainless-steel mug would be a safer option for me, but coffee always tastes better in a porcelain one.
家でコーヒーを飲むためにいくつもマグカップを持っている。よく使うのは4つくらいだ。同時に使うのは1つなのだから4つは持ちすぎかもしれないが、気分を変えるため、洗う手間を軽減するために複数持つのはいい考えだと感じている。
友人にもらったマグカップを割ってしまったことがあり、その時はとても悲しかった。彼女はカップと合うプレートもくれたのだが、プレートは相棒を永遠に失ってしまった。マグカップを落として割ってしまったことを、私はいまだに友人に言えていない。
買い物に行ったとき、かわいいマグカップが30％オフになっていた。1,000円未満だったし、買ってもいいかなと思ったが、自分のことだからまた割ってしまうのではないかと思うと買えなかった。こういう自分には落としても割れないステンレスのマグカップがいいかもしれないが、磁器製のマグカップで飲むほうがコーヒーはずっとおいしい。

Another, more casual way to say this is:
"However, I find it convenient to have a few, [to switch things up once in a while], and to reduce washing."
"To switch things up once in a while" just means that you do something different sometimes to change the mood.

Maybe a stainless- steel mug would be a safer option for me, but coffee always tastes better in a porcelain one.
"Stainless steel" is usually not hyphenated.

Well done! Another option could be a ceramic-lined, stainless steel mug. It keeps the flavor of coffee like a porcelain mug, but is durable and insulated like a steel mug!

Thank you! 'To switch things up once in a while' sounds like a useful expression. I’ll try to keep it in mind.

Passed doesn't need capitalising here I believe.

This is great. In my opinion, this is already at a better level than some native English speakers will write. You can always improve in some capacity but this doesn't really need any corrections.
