07.12.2012 | 購物隨談

[Volume 7 Issue 12, #1621]
年尾流流四週圍都大減價, 好多人都趁機會大肆血拼一番.. 不過最近嘅我就似乎對血拼已經興趣不再, 我對超級市場嘅興趣會多過百貨公司囉, 哈哈!! 可能現時一年到頭都有大大細細嘅大減價, 所以已經唔覺得稀罕?? 我其實發現一個現象, 就係同朋友一齊去血拼, 通常朋友都會滿載而歸, 而我就空手而歸.. 每次同人結伴去血拼, 我都會買唔到嘢, 反而係朋友在我魔鬼般嘅慫恿之下, 連唔想買嘅都全部買埋!! 如果自己一個人去濕平, 反而好多時候係非常滿載而歸喎.. 都話咗我係怪人一個啦, 呵呵~~ :p
it's year end and everywhere is having sales, many people take the opportunity to grab as much as they can afford.. however i recently found myself to be rarely interested in shopping anymore, i'm more happy in supermarkets than in departmental stores, haha!! perhaps the sales are too frequent all year round nowadays, so i don't find them attractive anymore?? i actually realized that if i go shopping with friends, most probably they would be buying a lot and i end up empty handed.. i don't know why but everytime when there's a companion, i can't normally get anything for myself, instead under my evil persuasions, friends grab more things they never intended to buy!! on the other hand, if i go shopping alone, chances is that i'm able to make the trip very fruitful for myself.. hmmm, like i said before i am rather a weird person, haha~~ :p

    1. I hardly do shopping nowadays. I'm happier to be in the supermarket.

      SK, does this has anything to do with age? I used to enjoy shopping very much in my 20's. I walked from 12pm to 10pm and did the same for the next and next week. Crazy huh? No wonder I was always broke!

      But Yannie still enjoy shopping, despite elder than me. She's still young at heart :D

    2. I get sleepy walking around malls nowadays.

      But if hubby wants to buy his things, then habislah! Follow him to dunno how many shops just so he can compare. o.O

      Delete
    3. Why husband still need to compare prices like makcik? I just buy and go off unless it costs thousands.

  4. I buy most of my shirts from Key Ng or William Liew boutiques. They have big sales whole year except year ends when their new collections roll out.

    Last night's shirt was purchased from Key Ng at 60% off. So cheap and anay looked like Dragon-i waiter!! Muahahahaha

    1. I don't have any specific boutiques when I shop for clothes. Anything with 50 - 70% off, you'll see me there.

      Annay doesn't look like Dragon-i waiter; annay looks so tall, smart and handsome in it! If Letchumi wasn't there yesterday, Hot Mama surely would flirt with this ex-Bollywood star!

      Delete
    2. I actually only like to shop when I go for my vacation - to that place I used to go once a year one. Buy season clearance item cheap. Go in early Winter and buy Fall collection at cheaper price. Or summer collection when I go during Fall season. ;p

      I love ther fashion.

      Buying them here are too darned expensive. NOt really nice some more. :(

      Delete
  5. I think I have passed the crazy shopping years. Now young people like Hot Mama Yannie is always shopping non stop! She is officially Cotton On VVIP client! She got good tastes lah!

    1. Thanks Anay for flattering me like this. I went to Cotton On to have a look last week. I didn't get anything for myself there. Instead, I bought Cotton On Kids for the girls. They wore it right away during our stay there. I love cotton material, very comfy and English style. Cotton On fashion is very simple and nice.

  6. Same here SK.

    If I follow people, I may end up not buying anything.

    If I go alone, OMG! Beware lah! Can "accidentally" spent a few Ks! o.O

    1. I seldom follow friends for shopping. Usually I go alone.... My self-control is quite well maintained, ahem.

      But I cannot go online shopping with Yannie, she's the devil like SK! She influences people to buy and she buys the most! Hahahaha!

      Delete
    2. for me either way also can but if shoping with friend i would preferred one friend or two friend only. If too many friends go shopping together will end up not buying anything. One will say this other will say that. so cant decide.

      okay la...gotta cari makan first...hungry jor..whole morning belum eat.

      Ciao!

      Delete
    3. Ini kucing ah, always run here run there. I pulak feel tired! LOL

      I don't shop with friends. Usually I need hubby and most importantly son's opinion. They are my fashion advisor! ;p

      Delete
    4. I prefer to shop with only one BFF. She can give me her valuable comment and I can give mine. I don't like shopping with more than 2 BFF. I don't have problem to shop alone too.

      Now, my companions are my girls. I just give them the tablet. They will play inside the shop, sit on the bench that is meant for trying shoes. Then, I can shop peacefully.

      Delete
  7. I don't go crazy over sales la...

    Maybe because I'm too kedekut. LOL

    The baju I wore last night, that one I bought in 2010!

    Replies
    1. We have less choice in our small town here and the sales isn't very happening. Maybe that's why I don't get crazy over the sales here.

      Put me into any shopping mall and see what happen next XD
      With cash in my pocket, I can easily finish it within an hour, nyek nyek!

      Delete
    2. Baju i don't care much punya. 10 years ago punya baju as long as not dirty and got hles, i will still wear..tarak follow "trend".

      But if stuffs like household barang like guardian sale then i will buy a lot la if it is really cheap coz those barang memang need to use one mah

      Sometimes when sales..i see things then if suit a friend or friend mentioned wanna buy that, i would buy for them first.

      Delete
    3. I still wear old red CNY shirts on CNY day again & again.

      Delete
  8. Most of my male friends hate shopping. When we used to hang out together back then, they prefer to sit in the restaurant, cafe or even game centers, rather to follow the girls to shops.

    Now that we are all married with kids, there is no more shopping session for us. Just grocery-ing in the hypermarket.

  11. OOhh that means I should never go shopping with you! Or I'll end up spending more than I should! hahhaa.. But I know what you mean, sometimes when I shop with friends, they tend to buy more things than me in the end. Maybe it's sort of a subconscious feeling of wanting them to have a good time when they shop with us? So we 'encourage' them to buy more? :P

    ReplyDelete
  12. well i think since you found shopping uninteresting anymore you can now save a lot huh?
    well in my case if ever i get a chance to shop ill go for it haha i only shop once in a blue moon

    ReplyDelete
  13. yeah at this point of time sales were quite all around
    perhaps new year's stocks would come so they were desperate to eliminate old stuffs haha

    ReplyDelete
  14. Ive been in a mall sales once and i hated it
    people were over crowded some were even stepping on your foot if bumps you to the corner or something
    ans since then I promise myslef never to go on a sale again

    ReplyDelete
  15. well I'd rather shop all by myself because if that is i can focus on choosing items,
    no one will tell you not to buy this of to but that or what ever
    haha i can even go around freely when im alone

    ReplyDelete
  16. well actually i dont even know whats happening outside nowadays
    i dont now if there were christnas bazzaar or sale going on on some where else haha
    I was always at home
    i can't even feel christmas yet haha

    ReplyDelete
  17. speaking of christmas bazzaar I prefered going on there rather on mall sales i mean they offer unique items unlike those malls has haha
    you can even see three person wearing the same shirt

    ReplyDelete
  18. I dont know why was it my friends always have me as some sort of a chaperon on their shopping haha

    ReplyDelete

    1. Luckily I didn't ask SK to shop with me, otherwise, he sure makes me go bankrupt swiping my credit card on things that I don't want.

    1. This year end sales is superb good for me and I just come at the right timing. All outlets are having grand sales up to 70%. I bought clothes from brands that I seldom bought previously.

      Such as Forever 21 and Dorothy Perkins. I also bought a few from my favorite brand Nichii. Nothing from Cotton On and Kitschen this time.

      Forget to mention I bought myself a New Balance sport shoes this trip.

    2. I just heard from a friend whom I met yesterday in the gym. She told me Uniqlo is having sales right now. Her son got her top at only RM9.90 to Rm19.90. I was so jealous, I wish I am there again in KL now.
