if you are looking for .net
Exabytes will be offering it at only RM3.99 on 31-Jan-2013 for first 100 signup on that day.

even if you are not looking for .net domain, you can consider to buy additional .net domain to park them together at your hosting so that you get more than 1 domain pointing to your website.

How much would the renewal cost be?

I have only got 1 domain so far, when u say park a domain on the same hosting, does it effectively mean that I do not need to pay for hosting for my domains other than the first one? It would be really cheap as you spread the cost of hosting to all the domains? (sorry I am a newbie).
Is there any downside to parking all your domains in one hosting apart from the risk of server down which cause all other domains to stop operate?

it depends whether your hosting package allow you to host only single domain name or multiple domain name within a single shared hosting package.

Some hosting package allow only 1 domain per hosting account
Some hosting package allow multiple domain but all of them park on a single website (park domain) per hosting account
Some hosting package allow multiple domain with different website (addon domain) per hosting account but all of them sharing the same hosting control panel login
Some hosting package allow multiple domain with different website per hosting account where each of the domain have their own control panel

you may wish to check with your hosting provider to make sure on what is allowed in the hosting package you subscribe to.

Which one should I be looking for if I need 1 for online store and a few for blogging (monetizing)?
And which one is better? I assume this --> hosting package with multiple domain with different website per hosting account where each of the domain have their own control panel?

This one normally we call it reseller plan

where you will have 1 reseller level of login for you to
- create different hosting package for each of your domain
- create each domain name as a hosting account so that they have their own control panel
- then each of the hosted domain will have their own control panel

Example reseller control panel: Web Host Manager
Example End user control panel: cPanel
