Good morning, SK, STP, TM, lina, SP, Ah Hua, Wenn, Meow, Hayley and everyone. Happy Thursday. Muack Muack. Love you, SK.
ReplyDeleteGood morning, everyone!! Good morning, SK~
DeleteBeware of C4 and guni-wrapped, Yannie. Early early came here smooching SK. Those aren't like using 2 pathetic pieces of plastic tapes to seal your lips. Kena C4 in the mouth, your lips will buka bunga :p
Hahahahaha!!! Goodmorning, Yvinne. That sounds so mean, so violent kah you?
Deletehappy Thursday everyone...
DeleteI am BACK .. Home sweet home ...
Yan .. wah what with the kisses to SK le?
You don't give to Tan Sri TM? later he jealous..
Good morning everyone! Hairy crab is back! How nice!!
DeleteOh? You escaped from the claws of the China Dolls, SP? Hope you did not bring any souvenir" back from them...and spread it all over here.
DeleteMorning, TM. Better watch out...he may make you gatal all over, pass you the souvenir he brought back, complimentary from t=his China Dolls...
DeleteWoah, Hairy Crab partied so late last night, with half-ball bimbos and wine; and still managed to crawl out from his bed this morning? I bet he received a lot of acupuncture in China, to open up his nerve and can have lasting performance!
DeleteHi, SP, good morning!! :)
I am so tired this morning..
DeleteI had dinner at KLCC and coincidentally there is a luxury watch launch...
damn lots of rich woman there .. wear those at least 2 carat diamond rings.. I think tony fernandes is there as well..

Yoh SK you got C4...oppsie i mean carrefour please borong me more coffee leh....eyes cannot open to spam here jor....
Good morning, everyone!
DeleteI remember Makro did not allow handbags or big bags in there. They have closed shop.
And then there's one new branch of a hypermarket that did not allow bags too but has since rescinded that policy.
If they are checking for explosives in the bag, then it is understandable. Those clips are a laugh, really. But then again, they may not have a bigger bag to seal in your nice big bag.
DeleteWah!!! SP so tired...after overworked in China, still recovering...no energy left after the China Dolls were done with him. LOL!!!!
DeleteYalah STP.
DeleteItu SP kena sucked dry by the China Dolls already.
COme back no energy to go UP! LOL
That is so obvious, isn't it? Will have to take Tongkat Ali lor...or Fui Fui will be furious!!! LOL!!!
DeleteTongkat Ali effect not so fast lah...
DeleteMust take itu blue pill for tonight already.
Last time ah, near Wisma Yakin - got this guy selling Malay ubat. Got sell this ubat named "pill pacak". I tell you, the effect was marvelous!
But dunno what's inside the pill. All good products or not. Or got side-effect, later or not.
Nanti swell up like balloon, baru tau... LOL!!! These things better don't play-play one!
DeleteGoodnes this Lina so well versed with all the male libido stuffs! She should be a Honorary Sex Consultant.
DeleteLOL!!! She certainly looks like she's an expert in these things.
DeleteLOL, STP. ya lor...he in china busy eating Hairy Crabs some more leh :p
DeleteAhem...Lina...how u know ah? You tried before ah?
Later SK and the guys goes queue up at wisma Yakin to get some sample :p
Where is Wisma Yakin? What have they got there? How come you never told me about it? Never took me there also? Now, I'm curious... LOL!!!!
DeleteA very good morning to you, my dear [SK}. How are you today? Hope you are in the pink...and progressing well with your work.
ReplyDeleteWhy STP so Lemak to SK? Wanna cleanse your guilt?
Delete*my dear {SK}* geli~~ Am sure TM's pubic hair stand up already.
DeleteWhy STP is flirting with SK? Tak mau kalah Mak Yan? Suddenly SK has become the spotlight, everyone sayang and love him, regardless boy or girl, young or old.

Like the Kitchen God mah!!! You feed him sweet things, go back to Heaven to report...will say all good things one! Come, come...SK, send me more...and I may just progress to sweetheart or darling! Muahahahahaha!!!!!
DeleteIyer... so geli lah, Uncle STP and SK call each other sweetheart or darling.
DeleteMuch more geli if Uncle STP wear a pink, v-neck shirt while sweet-hearting SK. (& SK wearing a sling bag)
Gay fest! wakaka
Hahahahaha!!!! People will think me sugar daddy, SK my toy boy... Hmmmm!!!! Better stop dropping by in case people start having ideas.
DeleteLOL.... Lina you made me laugh. Kakakakakakaka
DeleteHmmmm...you like that, eh, TM? Tsk! Tsk!
Deletewhat kicthen God. I thought give Kitchen God Nian Gao so that the mouth will get stuck and cannot report anything bad. :p
DeleteEwweee....Lina that would be so gross....SK wearing Pink T Shit and bring Pink bag...then kaldip at C4 door do body check on him....muhahahaha
They say it is sweet also so anything that comes out of the Kitchen God's mouth will be sweet one...and sticky, so glue the mouth, cannot report all the bad things.
DeleteOh? Somebody's here already... Ohhhhh!!!! It's you, Yan. Good morning to you.... Got SK's prize yet? Taiping postal service so poor one kah? Hehehehehehe!!!!
ReplyDeleteSTP, I am about to tell SK. I have got my prize. Why the prize reached Sibu earlier than Taiping? How come? This poslaju makes me angry la!
DeleteI checked with my husband, he didn't see my prize also.
He used pos lambat lah, registered mail...did not use poslaju. Sibu people more cekap dan amanah than Taiping people mah... Muahahahahaha!!!! Or maybe all mails to Taiping will go (BY LAND) to Ipoh first - so slow a bit. To Sibu, they send BY AIR direct to Sibu...so faster lor. Hehehehehehe!!!!!
Deletehappy le you all..
Deletegot SK prize? so STP got the virgin prize from SK huh.. so what you going to do with it?
Mak Yannie, so you got your present or not?? suddenly say you got, suddenly say jin jin didn't see~~
Deleteeih, i think the normal registered mail is good enough, so far serving good with all the presents i sent out.. still next day delivery also for meow's case (we same region mah).. i had bad experience with poslaju or pos ekspress lah, they are even slower took one week to deliver!! might as well just use the normal registered lah..
I still haven't got the prize. Sorry la! Typo error. Registered mail good, may be I will get it today. I must ask jin jin to stand by at home.
DeleteRegister mail is good enough la STP. Poslaju manyak mahal leh.
DeleteLaju laju but tak tepat also no use.
Yan, so long jor wor...i received it earlier leh. I think SK said can track right? Hopefully Kaldip did not curi your prize la
If curi...SK have to go shopping and buy some more lo
Not virgin lah...already once before...this one, second time....and hopefully, there will be more! Wink! Wink! Muahahahahaha!!!!
DeleteYalor...registered ok also but Sibu, must be at home to receive or else have to go to the other side of town to collect, far far away...I also don't know where. Cannot go to the GPO like before.
Yan's prize...already lost in space lah... Muahahahaha!!!!
Yan prize received already la today.
DeleteNot get. Received notice only, hubby will have to go and collect today. Lucky thing I was home to receive - our new office for registered mail other side of town...dunno where also. I would not know how to go and collect.
DeleteThey've been doing that at Carrefour MV for a long time already... Last time, worse... They simply twisted every thing and sealed with those long plastic strips...and when you checked out of the place, you would have to get the cashier to cut them off...and you bags would all be badly wrinkled. Just get people to deposit the bags at the counter lor like that... No need to spoil people's bags.
ReplyDeleteoh yeah i noticed they have "improved" perhaps too many customers complained.. last time they even personal bags they want to tie the plastic strips at the zip also!! and then ask you to put your shopping bags into their plastic bags and seal everything.. now they are more "relax" lah, just use the plastic tapes only..
Deletenope, i dont agree "Just get people to deposit the bags at the counter lor like that... No need to spoil people's bags" coz dangerous also . They put sign say they will not be resposible if anything lost. Macam mana like that. What if things got lost? My bag got camera , purse and what not wor. Hilang who ganti?
DeleteThe one i dont like the most is Giant at K.Trengganu. That one the security guard really like " holding chicken feather, think it as sacre arrow"(ling zhi kai moe thong ling jin) .
J baby that time i carry his milk and diaper everywhere. Like that also dont let me bring in. Ask to deposit in counter. WOi...u know babyl lah. halfway vomit how? want me to run all the way to the customer service counter get the bag and take wet tissue and what not to clean him up ah?
The one in Endah parade seri petaling , the guards are better.
Deleteat least if bring all that, they use the plastic tie and tie the zipper of the hand bag or the computer bag. Not use plastic then bungkus then tie which makes it impossible to carry. forced to put into the trolley which also dangerous coz people may take that from your trolley when your head is turned for a moment.
all this ah...really sometimes never take into consideration of the customer punya problem. If they so scared things get stolen the tag everything la. Make the security beeper goes off every time people passby la
sometimes makes me think whether is it the rules and regulation or is it the guards pandai pandai impose
Giant hypermarket in Kemaman lagi best.
DeleteEverywherehyper market is encouraging people to bring their own plastic bag and shopping bags . Not only on saturday.
But that particular hypermarket, only allow people bring own bag ON SATURDAY.
My friend brought shopping bags to fill her groceries mah. Then the En Guard don't let her in. Say it is only for Saturday. She was so angry. Told me. I write in to their main office. No reply from them. Commented in their facebook also no reply.
At least if Tesco, they will reply to customer feedback.
This happen last year la. Now i dont know whether they still does that or not.
So far never encountered any experience like SK's in Tesco or Giant here. I bring along my recycle bags and sling bag, the guard doesn't bother to stop me.
DeleteI remember during the initial opening of Tesco, the guards were quite strict. They scouted patrons with hand-carry plastic/paper bag from other outlets and they would seal them with their own plastic bag.
But you know le, Taiping town is so small, people here usually don't carry much thing around. Perhaps Taiping folks are lazy, hahaha! Buy, dump in the car, and go shopping again.
Here, I think only at Supersave - cheap made-in-China stuff...who wants to steal? Me lagi worse - got camera, got all my bank passbooks...everything, just throw in the bag. If lost, how? Tsk! Tsk!
DeleteMeow,
DeleteGiant ke Cold Storage ke TMC ke (all same management mah) same saja. You complain macam mana pun, they won't bother to reply let alone take not lah. Malaysian mari mah....
Giant, I thought is connected to Parkson? Cold Storage kah? Here got Giant only - two one hypermart, one supermart...
DeleteGood la, Yvonne. Over there more relax. But kemaman also small town what
DeleteThat is my point la STP. Ask to put in the customer service. But if hilang how? They say they are not responsible. But if put into car also not safe.
Lina, entah la...But if Tesco i complaint they got respond la
Sometimes these company makes me geram i go spam their FB. I use fake id to spam them and kns them kau kau
Facebook how to have fake id? You open new account use fake name, is it? Wah!!! You memang so free, can do all these things. LOL!!!
DeleteThey seal like that, what for4? Can still steal the small stuff and slip in through the open sides leh? Really no brainer...or they make so much money they do not mind if you steal the cheaper small items.
ReplyDeleteyalor, that's why!!! i really cannot understand!! purposely hire two guards to do that at the entrance.. haiz!!
DeleteYa lor...really boh kang jor.
DeleteThey have too much money gua.
Some stuffs in C4, i noticed is more expensive than others hypermarket. That is why i seldom go to C4 if I can help it.
Usually i go to tesco. Tesco not really very cheap la but ok lo their product and price. Then the place also nice to walk. spacious.
Giant over here makes me feel very clutter. Floor around the meat area always wet.
Too much security will really put off some customers.
DeleteI agree with Wenn. Like what SK said...like they are showing they dont trust the customer. I know la memang they dont trust customers and they have the right to do so but dont show it till like written on their face la.
DeleteAnd the security guards think they are Adolph Hitler or who...so fierce, so unfriendly one... A little learning is a dangerous thing - these people not enough schooling...like that lah!
DeleteNo la STP. They like gila kuasa or what la. Some security guard are okay. When i tell them my bag got camera they will kasi masuk. some S-hole will insist me put in the customer service pigeon hole. Betul betul kns
DeleteSame lah...never mind what job, what profession. There are good ones and there are lousy ones. Sometimes, talk nice, nice to them, they will be nice nice in return. PR very important.
DeleteMydin is doing the same by using plastic strip to tie the opening of the bag. I dont like that
ReplyDeleteWah.....so early u r shopping in C? Buy breakfast before work?
DeleteThe long plastic strips? I hated that too... Would go elsewhere - not that they are the only people selling those things. Tsk! Tsk!
Deleteoh, i have not been to Mydin before, but i think there are more foreign workers going there.. hehehehe, sorry i didn't mean you lah, hahaha!! i think this is very bad lah, perceiving all customers are going to shoplift like that..
DeleteMydin got use plastic strips meh? I thought all barang have to deposit at the counter?
DeleteKena one time before all barang have to deposit at counter so i did not bother to go there at all anymore.
I just feel uncomfortable to put barang at counter. If missing or something they say they are not responsible. Manyak ssah lor if like that. make police report and all that.
In fact, Mydin uses up too many plastic bags. Every stuff that we bought have to be weighed and put in plastics. I'm referring to the vegetables, fruits and even fish.
Deletenot only Mydin. Other hypermarket also.
DeleteI dont really like shopping at mydin for some reason
Somehow I get the feeling it is like those cheap shops selling made-in-China stuff one..buy today, spoil tomorrow one.
DeleteI hate going to Mydin. Feels like I'm treated like a potential thief before I step into their kedai.
DeleteSOme more staff all not very friendly.
Go Kamdar better. Kamdar got efficient staff. Some fierce but can do their job properly.
Go Mydin, Bangla ramai. huhuhu
Been to Kamdar, ok. I loved Globe Silk Store...used to be their regular customer - their shirts, got MY size....and could browse as long as I liked, helped myself to what I liked, tried and tried and tried...no problem and in the end, bought some, returned some...no problem! The only reason why I would go to Jalan TAR everytime I went to KL - now no more, never go there anymore.
DeleteSTP,
DeleteCome to Balakong/Ser Kembangan. Shop at Mines. Got shop for big size here. Dunno berapa kali XXXXXXXXXXX punya L size oso got. :)
Mines...so far!!! How to get there? Nobody will want to give me a lift... Me, so kesian...go KL, nobody layan. People come to Sibu, I bring everywhere like tourist guide, belanja makan some more. Sobssssss!!!!!
DeleteSYP, cannot expect much la. The plastic product or what there very brittle one.
DeleteBetul betul, Lina. Staffs muka masam. Then sometimes chit chat there not doing work.
Have not been to Kamdar. I thought Kamdar is for kain only.
That one is Big Boss shop is it, Lina.? they have a few outlets
Woi...cakap biar betul ni, STP " Nobody will want to give me a lift... Me, so kesian...go KL, nobody layan"
You come KL also very hard to book you leh. You so busy with appointment till berak also no time. Let alone bring you buy XXXXXXXL baju la
...plus not environment-friendly some more. Waste of plastic!
ReplyDeleteYES!! this statement adds to the third point!!!
Deleteno point in doing that. They are actually wasting their time and resources too.
Deleterefer to my comments above ...the hypermarket only let peope bring their own bags on Saturdays. Makes sense or not?? Maybe the top management never give proper instruction to Pak Guard or what.
DeleteThe same la goes for those warehouse sale. If go there, the guard will wrap your whole bag with plastic then when go out they rip the plastic.
really very wasteful la
...and then they have no plastic day, don't give plastic bags. So ironic!
DeleteOn no plastic day, they let customer bring own bags but then on normal day, they wont let people bring own bag.
DeleteReally duno what type of instruction is that.
The purpose of no plastic day on Saturday is to encourage people bring own plastic and hopefull people will do that on normal day too but then this one terbalik.
Carrefour MV did that, because they want to scare the small thief(毛賊)away, but this won't work for big thief (大盜).
ReplyDeleteSmall thieves won't be afraid of this tactic. It won't prevent them from shoplifting.
DeleteAnd....
Big thieves go steal from unoccupied house.
Bigger thieves go steal from ATM machine.
Biggest thieves go rob the bank. That's called robbers :D
well, first of all, all shopping bags shouldn't be allowed in the emporium except handbags. They can be kept outside in a safe counter being supervised by the security guard. This way, we don't feel so awkward. Furthermore, shoplifting can be duly reduced too.
Deleteyalah.. they thought we are all the 長毛賊 want to curi the mee maggie, curi the twisties and oh-ya, curi the vitagen, curi the chicken drumstick lah.. so must seal all our bags!!!
Deletethat's the point wenn.. what for allowing us to bring in bags with tapes and with "holes".. might as well disallow all shopping bags.. but then if that is the case, i won't even want to go in, rather go elsewhere..
I used to let my customers put their shopping bags at my counter. When they are done with their shopping, I can easily put all their stuff into their shopping bags.
DeleteReally la it wont deter petty thieves la.
Deleteas for supervised by the security guard, am not comfortable too. WHat if the guard sleepy that day and ter give my bag to other customer? Later my bag hilang how? They got post sign there say they are not responsible for any loss incurred
Ummm...SK, why you bring such a big bag when you go shopping? What do you have inside? Can show or not? I'm so curious... Hehehehehehe!!!!
DeleteHe like gay boy mah... ada perfume. ada shaving foam. ada sikat besar. ada change of clothes. all inside that big bag of his. You dunno ah, STP.
DeleteOK lah, don't say gay boy lah.. later he merajuk, then insist I apologise, susah pulak! kekeke
I should say, he's the modern, metrosexual man. Macam David Bekham. Shorter and chubbier David Beckham! Bwahaha!!!!!!
David Beckham!!! Muahahahahahahaha!!! Joke of the year!!! Oops! Sorry, SK... She started it! * points at Lina*
DeleteHe baru come back from shopping at the warehouse sale kot. Of course cannot put all those perfume and what not into the car la. later people break the car wiindow leh. That is why have to bring along to C4 gua.
DeleteMaybe the gua also curious what SK bring
There was one time we wanted to bring in a fan blade into a hypermarket coz the one in our hse rosak. wanna get replacement. The customer service just tape the plastic only. same thing happen la
Laugh by all means hahahaha..cannot understand the 'security' with the two strips after all they have those beeping machines at all exits plus most items are mainly 'locked' with those hi tech protective gadgets dunno what you called them and they have CCTVs.
ReplyDeleteThe tapes sort of can be checked upon when the customers come out from shopping. Those being tampered are surely suspected. Maybe it's a small move but it could be really effective to discourage shoplifting.
Deleteeih, the two pieces of tapes very "secured" one you know?? the customers won't be able to open their bags and slot in things they have shoplifted, wakakakaka!!
Deletehahaha, wenn, see how my bag is sealed?? i can still slot in some items into my bag without tampering the tapes.. :D
yes, unless one is efficient enough to put the stolen items without being seen. Don't forget they have cctv.
Deletebut the two piece of tape really pointless lor. waste of tape only.
DeleteNot all small items are cheap leh. If go electronic item there then there are many expensive gadget that is smalll and able to fit into the bag leh.
so no point put tape
If handbags or backpacks, how they seal? Some ladies have very big handbags also what?
DeleteThen, what else want to seal? People got big pockets also seal lah! Right or not?
DeleteI never bother go Carrefour already nowadays. Some more, so darn inconvenient lah, the layout of Carrefour MV. I just want to buy a bottle of drinks, have to walk whole kedai until the end for the darn thing. Might as well pay extra 10sen at Jusco. Hmph!
Next time, shoppers have to strip and enter naked...then cannot steal - no place to hide the things.
Deletebig hand bags or bag packet, last time they use super big plastic bag to wrap and tied with the plastic white tie.
Deletethen after sometime they changed . They put the plastic white tie to the zipper so you cannot open the zipper la.
But between the wrap in plastic bag and tie the zipper i prefer tie the zipper coz that way i can still carry it behind my back but if use plastic bag to wrap i have to put into trolley which makes me uncomfortable
Zippers, plastic ones you push a pen in between...the zipper will open liao. So easy!!!! Same thing with suitcases.
DeleteGood morning good morning good morning..the one and only one blog with the most greetings of good mornings from bloggers. Why ah? haha
ReplyDeleteoh Bananaz is back into action!! welcome back and now you are able to see more clearly and sharply and colorfully already??
DeleteGood morning Bananaz. Sounds like you are well again. Good good :)
DeleteEverybody bodek SK, want to win prize mah... Muahahahahahaha!!!!
DeleteStill got "holes" to put in if really want to shoplift, kan? Small items... so make no difference.. last time during my younger days, all big bags were put inside pigeon hole before entering to the supermarket... nowadays, they clip clip ah?
ReplyDeleteLOL! Ya, I can see 3 holes in between the 2 cello tapes.
DeleteHey, Claire, you made me recall I frequently used the pigeon hole in the supermarket to put my bag and in return the person in charge on the counter would give me a tag to identify my pigeon hole :)
well, with those three holes, you need to struggle so as not to disturb the tapes. Yes, Taiping used to let us put our bags into the pigeon hole. Well, in one of KL shopping complexes, my whole handbag was put inside a plastic bag and sealed. I had to take out my purse first. Otherwise, how to pay?
Deleteyalah, i also no idea what they have in mind lah.. just put two strips of tapes leaving three holes for me to put in my mentos?? kekekeke..
Deleteoh, i somehow miss the pigeon hole lah but then normally when i see that, i will back off and go elsewhere.. this is not trusting the customers..
hahahahaha, you should have taken out your purse before they seal your expensive bag into a cheap plastic bag~~ :D
yes, but in Europe, we are carefree. We can bring our shopping bags/handbags in without being supervised. Well, European people trust their people and foreigners like us too.
DeleteBut pigeon holes i takut the guard give wrong bag to wrong people leh. Like if give u number 6 and another person hand in number 9....how?
DeleteYou gila mentos ka? Not go and slip in your shaves ah? shaves more expensive and can fit the three holes wor.
Oh? SK likes men toes? Muahahahahaha!!!!!
DeleteWe here definitely not ready to have self-checkout counters.
DeleteYou know, sendiri scan our stuff and then after scan get receipt and pay at one central cashier?
Business operators don't trust customers. Customers also cannot be trusted. But then, I doubt that those overseas countries don't have petty thieves also. But the shops don't operate like ours.
Why?
Malaysia boleh!!!
DeleteSelf check out counters? die lo....the queue will be like 1 km long lor.
DeleteMakes me wonder too how oversea they can implement this.
But i know they have store detective la spying on people. Maybe the oversea people not like asian...so kiasu..curi tiny thing that may not even usable for ownself
Overseas people very discipline, very efficient...not like here, dilly dally, lenggang lenggan, chit-chat chit-chat, gossip, gossip, talk on mobile, send msgs, play games whatever.... Everywhere in the UK, long queues...but so fast - you actually keep moving and soon it will be your turn already. Tak rasa pun. I brought things to read when I had to queue - no chance to read even as you have to keep moving in the mile-long queue.
DeleteThey are doing that here too.. actually there are two security guard welcoming you at the entrance of every malls, supermarket and department store... they are holding a not so long stick to use to check the stuff inside your bag... it's a hassle specially if you are in a hurry but I understand that they are doing that for the shoppers' protection. YOu know a lot of bombing been happening all over the globe. :)
ReplyDeleteat least we know in your case they are scanning for weapons and hazardous items which i think is acceptable.. but then sealing all bags of customers thinking that we will steal things?? i cannot accept that, they are not trusting the customers, then what are their CCTV and advanced anti-shoplifting facilities are for??
DeleteBombing is one thing la. I know in Indonesia they does that. shopper are greeted by securities guards with to detector sticks. same goes for cars that goes into shopping mall. they will check underneath the car with a mirror
DeleteBut then the one SK talking about is they put to tiny tapes on the shopping bags to deter petty thieves. It's really wasteful and pointless
Well, at least we do not have bombings in our malls here...such snatch thefts in the parking lots....and the security there, they never bother - never think of the welfare of their customers - the ones who bring money to them! Best to boycott all these places...I would just go to the kedai runcit round the corner from my house - no hassle at all and the towkay so friendly, will give discount some more.
DeleteLol they are just wasting tapes i think... if i were a thief i could still put my hand inside those shopping bags...
DeleteSome thieves do pretend that they are shopping but their main agenda is to fool the shoppers and get their loot...
Choy! Choy! Choy! dont say that la. Later suddenly whe have that here then our economy will kaput lor.
DeleteThe tourists wont dare to come like after Bali time.
But the if wanna buy perfume how to go kedai runcit la, STP. There are somethibgs thayt we cant get at kedai runcit . Like those imported products .
Go departmental store usually they do not ask you to deposit your bags leh? Only at supermarts and hypermarts... Go places like Parkson, Metrojaya...can bring bags in, no problem.
DeleteMorning everyone!
ReplyDeleteI once told the guard and the manager not to seal and ruin my paper bag that's from a luxury brand shop and wad prepared to storm off in a huff. Later, they put my nice paper bag in a plastic bag O.O
But come on la..
That hypermart konon2 save planet by not giving plastic bag but happily plastic tagging n plastic wrapping people's bag. :-(
yalah, imagine your nice LV bag kena masuk into their ugly carrefour bag somemore seal up like the minuman bungkus!! this is so not vogue at all lah.. yalor, saturday no plastic bag day, yet they force you to your reusable shopping bags into plastic bags before entering.. how sarcastic!!
DeleteI kena also . They "seal" y paper bag with a BIG plastic bag but then the paper bag end up crumpled coz when they seal the plastic bag it like crumple the paper bag too. waste of effort.
DeleteMemang wasteful pun using plastic bag to seal the bags.
Yup...they did that before at C$ Mid Valley...put in big plastic bag and seal with the long plastic strip. Really wasteful...
DeleteMeow,
DeleteYou know sometimes you see the supervisor standing at the end of cashiers counter at Carrefour MV?
Bad mood time, I go to them and ask them to open up the plasctic wrapping or tagging for me! Why should I susah2 do it myself?
I always ask them to cut open...cannot do it myself lah, not easy...must have scissors.
DeleteHahahah bagus tu, Lina. Ya lor...but usually i manyak jahat one. I will go ask them to open. Sometimes they tied really dumb dumb one leh. tie the plastic strips at my bag straps.
Deletesome more not eay to ppen the plastick strap. I usually ask the cashier to open or what. They have scisor under the counter
Ya...they have scissors. Hmmm...lucky thing, they cut the plastic, they did not cut your handbag strap...or is it unlucky? If they cut, you can ask them to replace with a brand new handbag - even better!!!
Deletehave you been to village grocer at bangsar village, sk? They have bangla ke Pakistani ke plainclothes spy stationed like every aisle there and in front of cashier counter.
ReplyDeleteThe stationery shop in front of pelota nasi kandar has spy to follow you around while you browse for stuff. U_U
oh, i didn't noticed they have "CID" inside the shop, hahahaha!! that is interesting, at least they are doing it more subtly lah, and they just spying those suspicious people i supposed?? like that they are just setting up human CCTV, unlike we are already being perceived as shoplifters before even entering carrefour.. betul??
Deleteyes, I saw that before. "shoppers" pretending to be shoppers.
DeleteBut paling best is see some bangla shoppers busy "testing" grapes and mandarin oranges. Hahaha...syok syok makan....go there makan so many rounds.
Here, the thieves do not bother about cheap stuff lah - they target baby's infant formula...so expensive nowadays...or cigarettes or liquor. This kind of precaution may deter those small-time shoplifters only - curi2 also cannot curi very much. I think the guard's pay...and those plastic clips will cost even more...
DeleteNo need to seal the recycle/plastic bag to prevent shoplifting. If they want to steal, there is 101 ways to do it.
DeleteI read in the papers months ago, some women hid the infant formula under their dress. They purposely wore like pregnant ladies, to avoid detection. They knew the guards won't dare to touch them.
Yalor... Here, they get somebody to steal something, anything and run...and everybody will give chase, then others will rush in and steal the expensive stuff...and run off in th eother direction. If people want to steal, there is no stopping them. You think you are smart, they are smarted than you...
DeleteThose infant milk and ciggy all tagged one mah. How to open the tag without the "machine".
DeleteThis plastic tape duno for what prpose.
Ya wor..i read the same article too.But i wonder how they dismantle the tag.
like yvonne said la...if people wanna steall they can use 101 ways la. Just install more cctv la
Sibu supermarket, where got tag one... Got CCTV, already consider very good. Most of them, no security also... If have to deposit bags, have to get the sales assistants to do it for you.
Deletehaha thats kinda funny well they must build some sort of baggage counter instead of that hahaha i dont know why and who came up with that idea
ReplyDeletewell, baggage counter then they have to be accounted for any loss of belongings of the customers.. and that one need space too..
Deletewho says they have to be accountable for the losses . They put BIG BIG sign there say they are not responsible for any losses. That is why i geram la. as me put there but not accountable. How la like that???
DeleteYalor...those signs are everywhere!!!
DeleteHahaha I remember one time masuk Toys R Us (that one kena leave bag one). I didn;t have my handbag with me but put my stuff in a carry-all.
DeleteThey asked me to deposit my bag but then of course cannot leave expensive/important stuff in bag. So I took out my wallet, my expensive camera and stuuf, and gave them an empty bag. LOL
The staff saw and let me take my bag inside. xD
I thought the whole idea is not to let people bring the bag inside so they cannot shoplift and put the thing sin the bag? Why they allow empty bag? Not logical like that...
DeleteWakakakaka Lina...bagus!!!! Memang pandai. Ya la...got camera, wallet ipad and all that in the bag how to leave it at the counter.
DeleteI think that staff the eyes also big already saw so many valuebles. hahaha
no la STP...they where got aloow empty bag? They allow Lina to bring the bag with her stuffs inside
Rules are rules, either she walks around holding on to everything or she can go elsewhere. Cannot have kelonggaran one - you say ok to one, everybody wants already. So headache like that. I took out everything and stuffed them all in my big pockets - luckily guys' pants have lots of pockets, can put in lots of things. Just sometimes, too heavy the waistband not so reliable...so pants tend to drop down, have to pull up all the time. LOL!!!
Deletebut about the checking of customers before getting in i find it necessary because nowadays we can be sure of our security
ReplyDeleteif they were to scan for weapons and bombs like what you have in Philippines i think that's acceptable.. but sealing all our bags because they want to anti-shoplift is not trusting the customers, i am pissed off with that..
DeleteI know they have the right not to trust the customer la but then have to do it in a way that have a "point" mah. Like what they did to SK's bag...what point is that??? Those who wanna steal will still managed to slip something in.
Deleteif i bad, i put empty boxes in the bags and when they seal the bags with two trips...i take expensive barang and at one corner, put it into the empty box which is not empty now and walk out of the store. Lagi best like that. This is to show how pointless it was
*** Disclaimer to the above statement: Do not do this in any shops. Just an illustration what could have happen!
DeleteWahhhh!!!! With experts like mamma pussy, really have to be very very careful. LOL!!!
Deleteof course la...later people sue me say i teach people to steal barang pulak. Manyak jialat lor if like that
DeleteYalor...you're the one teaching everybody what to do. Hehehehehehe!!!!
Deletebut i experience a lot of annoying security check some would check me touching my body too much i mean their hands is getting in the places they are not allowed haha
ReplyDeletehahahaha!! at least you are pissed off and not getting excited with that and embarrassed yourself~~ :D
Deleteewww......why they touching like that??
DeleteAiyor...molest lah like that!!! But you buy trousers or belts in Thailand, the shop sttendants will help you to try, touch top, bottom, here, there and everywhere....cheap thrill!!! Muahahahahaha!!!!!
Deletealso some of their attendants will follow you whereever you'll go as if you were to steal any from their item shocks
ReplyDeleteoh, and i hate that too.. if there are people following me, i will just walk away and rather go to another shop.. i need privacy also when i shop!!
Deletemy staff followed a suspected customer and this customer quickly reported to me. Well, I told her that it's our normal practice to serve our customers. So she just left but I knew she was worried that she might be caught.
DeleteMe too dont like shopping attendant following me. Wanna see if am stealing then see CCTV la.
DeleteWhen got shop assistant follow me then i would usually walk out. Not comfortable la.
Scared if i touch a thing like baju, they will swamp me with their promotion this and that.
I simply hate those attendants. When you take to see and put back...they will shift thething or take and put it back again, like your hand so dirty or what...or if baju, they will rearrange the hangers in an angry sort of way to show their displeasure - so insulting!!! I will walk out of the shop right away...never to return.
DeleteIt's depend, when I'm in good mood, I don't mind the attendants - make me feel like a rich tai-tai, attended by so many people. Yes, good mood means my pocket is loaded ;)
DeleteOn a bad day, the attendants are pest to me... which is unlikely to happen, because when I'm broke, I don't go shopping :)
Good mood, bad mood...I don't like! I like to take my time and browse in peace. No such thing overseas...only here.
DeleteIf people follow me around and I'm not in a particularly good mood, I will look at them and ask whether they want to help me or just checking whether I am going to steal anything. Straight on. Then, I will go out from the store.
DeleteI also hate those shop assistants that immediately adjust what we touched as if I senget the display so badly. Again, if mood no good, sure kena sound one. Before I come never so rajin to adjust display but after I touch immediately want to kemas ah? This shop is already closing kah, want to keams-kemas already?
Exactly what I said!!! Why do they do that? Are they trained to do that or what?
DeleteIn the UK, I went to e.g. once to a shoe shop. I touched every one, took down to see....tried a few and in the end, I decided not to buy.
The lady (English) was so friendly, so helpful. I said I was sorry but she said it was all right and asked me to drop by her shop again should I ever feel like buying shoes. I MOST certainly would...when that is the treatment I can get, not like here in Malaysia - try one pair, ask for another - the salesgirl face already turned BLACK like charcoal! Blardy hell!!!
Betul tu, STP. Like we take out the baju is like already mess up their planning or something. Sien if shop like that
DeleteThe senget thing i kena many times already one, Lina. If am shopping with friends and then we bad mood, will sound it liud loud when we exit the shop. Sound them like so eksyen . touch aalso cannot. I go other place and give them the money la
But some can be real pesky la Yvonne. I have not even see the dress properly she will start with her sale pitch. I dont mind la if they will "attend" when i ask them a question instead of them straight bla bla bla like that. Makes me feel like kena forced to buy or else berambus like that
No need UK la. Some in Msia also got good shop assistance punya. They will sit one side eye you and then if you appear to need help they will appear. But this art of discret eyeing is hard to find la. Now all shop assistent is those part time girls geh. where got mood to layan so much . Then more you touch the more they have to straughten up later. They will be more keen eyeing their phone
Wahhhhh!!!! Curi curi spamming here hor! And apuuuuu!!!! What a long comment some more. Thi sone, like writing essay for SPM exam, Muahahahahahahaha!!!!
DeleteI don't want anybody to come and offer to help. If I want any help, I know how to ask. Just leave me in peace to enjoy browsing around.
have a great day and happy bloggin my friend may the good spirit will always be there to protect you
ReplyDelete其實我都好鬼憎入呢間連鎖店,煩到死。有時綁個膠帶喺個背囊度,核突囖!
ReplyDeleteGood Tea Time! XD
ReplyDeleteoh well, if I go shopping or what, I don bring those kind of bag lo . . .
if they wanna clip, let them clip only lol . . . if there is no plastic bag provide on that day, make sure your bag is empty XD
I mean, to use the bag TO replace the plastic bag is cool la.
Deleteseriously, I don carry bag with other stuffs and carry inside to the mart again.
anyways . . . u carry bag around eh? XD the particular "recycle bag" XD
DeleteI use to carry that too . . . but at the end I dun wan carry because looks ugleh on me lol
and I don't think this kind of "security method" implant in other places/mart yet . . . . mid-valley special case I think XD
DeleteI am actually quite upset with carrefour for this...not trusting their customers. I once used a super large handcarry and they insisted to tape or bag my bag. I refused and never returned to Carrefour MV as a shopper.
ReplyDeleteThat's right! Just boycott them for such shabby treatment - means they think all their customers are thieves and shoplifters. How insulting!
DeleteHi SK...now back to comment again. Morning comment half way, boss ask me to go out. That's how I got to buy my chicken rice balls. hahah
ReplyDeleteThe Mydin I went is S'ban branch. Not many foreigner.... but also not in very good business. I went there 2 -3 times ever since they started their business 2 years back. haah
DeleteWhen Carefour first open in S'ban, they check every customer's bag before we can enter. After a while, they stop checking. The business in Carefour in S'ban is also not good la.....very few customers.
Deletebut carefour in S'ban provide carton boxes to replace plastic bag. They have a recycle counter. Normally, I will bring my own shopping bag. But so far, never experience being seal with tape before.
DeleteJust like STP, I'm also curious what's inside your big bag. Haha...not heavy to lug around ? Or was it your gym baju ?
Delete...or things he needs to use in the gym shower and changing room? Wink! Wink! LOL!!!
DeleteHmm, I understand why you were angry SK!
ReplyDeleteI encoutered the similar incident before.. Actually they already have the scanning machine at the cashier, if we really steal things the machine sure will tell right?
ReplyDeleteI dunno... I was at Popular, Pearl Point (Jalan Klang Lama) and I picked a few books and was hugging them as I went around the place...and absent-mindedly, I strolled out of the shop. Nothing happened!!! Then I remembered I had not paid for the books...so I turned and went back in to pay at the counter. Luckily, it did not trigger off any loud alarm - would be so embarrassing!!!
DeleteSometimes, I just feel that certain actions are 多此一举...
ReplyDeleteperhaps the store has bad experiences with shop lifting...lesson learned perhaps...:)
ReplyDeletexx!
Oh! Long time I did not visit Carrefour! Usually go Tesco or Giant. Since when they started this laughable security measure?
ReplyDeleteStill can steal tiny items right? So its OK with them? LOL!
ReplyDeleteI don't like to be thought as a potential thief! So definitely will boycott Carrefour!!
ReplyDeleteForeigners have embarked about our local TESCO and Carrefour outlets being so strict. They never saw such zipped plastics in their countries. How true I am not sure but the TESCO in Bangkok is mo relaxed. How come Malaysia has so many shoplifters????
ReplyDeleteYa...no such thing overseas. I guess they have CCTV all over so no hanky panky when there! This is so troublesome and offensive.
DeleteI prefer to shop at Village Grocers or Francis at BSC...they allow you to carry any sized bags in but they hired soooooo many guards until you can see all the guards trailing you like sniff dogs!!!
ReplyDeleteEeee...that sounds so scarily uncomfortable! I'd stick to my neighbourhood grocer. Can chat and gossip some more while picking out stuff.
DeleteRecently I watched a few shop lifting incidents in the You Tube and was shocked to see a group of ladies stuffing shoes into their Baju Kurungs!!! What an ample space to hide their lots! LOL.........
ReplyDeleteSo you're going shopping in baju kurong too? LOL!!!
DeleteI know right... we can easily remove those seal. They are just contributing to waste, not environment friendly at all -.-
ReplyDelete
