my lil'Chomel

After that, we saw people with trolley loads of Jusco's plastic bags. Gosh! What have I gotten us into? Oh well, since we have parked the car and I STILL need to buy some vege and chicken for Jon, we just barged in like the others. Inside was packed with people and items for sale. Jon was so excited to see so many things happening at the same time, he refused to let us hold his hand. So, I have to resort to using the body leash. A lot of people were staring at us. I don't really care. Anybody dare to come up to me and give stupid comments, I'm just going to ask the person, "If I loose my son, can you replace him with your life?". But nobody asked or said anything. Good.

We quickly head to the supermarket area, not to say that things there were super duper cheap. Or maybe, the prices for groceries have gone up so much that the prices shown during that sale was actually very cheap? Am I making any sense? Generally, I didn't feel that the sale was that good. Can get better prices in other hypermarkets. As we were almost done, Jon found something he likes...

We started our day with breakfast and slowly make our way to the destination. And when we reached the place, we were shocked! Guess where we went?

(Crazy crazy queue... we can't even see the end of the queue)


(But we are just happy to be there... and be part of the crazy crowd)

We were at Bangsar Village for FJB Warehouse Sale... which was just a so-so sale.

Warehouse sale! Warehouse sale!

Jon's auntie and I just came back from one. It was a good one, and it was a mad house as well. Actually, that is the fun part ... hehehehehe. We just realised that we are not professional (professional warehouse sale buyers) yet. There is still room for improvement.

I'm thankful for those so called "warehouse sale" cos I get to buy stuffs at cheaper rates. I do confess that not all of the warehouse sales are as good as they claimed to be but overall I'm pretty happy with the things I bought. Of course Jon's auntie and I only select those that we are really interested in. Have to balance the effort invested in going to those sales.

Time spent + money spent + crowd madness = product satisfaction

People generally buy and stock up. Especially baby items. Here's some of the things I've observed during warehouse sale:
1. People go crazy about it. Queue for hours just to get in and queue for hours to pay.
2. They even have blogs and web sites to announce the warehouse sales.
3. It all happens together. Sometimes there can be a few warehouse sales in 1 weekend.
4. It always happen when you need to go out of town.
5. People buys things like its dirt cheap when in actual fact they can be spending hundreds of dollars in 1 sale!
6. Be there early or you won't find the stuffs you wanted.
7. No mercy shown eventhough you are pregnant.
8. Take first, think later.
9. Always have your handphone in your pocket and have it on vibration mode. Cos you won't realise its ringing it's antenna off when you are in the midst of madness.
10. Bring someone (husband, mother, maid, sister, brother, friend) to share your 'burden' ... hahahaha ... to carry and watch out for the stuffs la.

There are much more but can't think right now.
