saw loads ethnic print items at Kun Ming
we are staying in the middle of the old street markets
the refurbished tourism-shopping area
labeled as old street
with streets and streets of small vendors
the only issue was
my bargaining skills are up to nowhere
therefore gave up street shopping
especially when no price tag can be found
asking-quoting-bargaining-negotiating-hesitating
I hate this part
therefore
most of our souvenirs came from Carrefour
or some other similar supermarkets
no hijack of prices, no counterfeit (I think)
these are mine
anyway who will produce counterfeit M&M’s candy
seriously, all the way thousands miles away
and these are what you bought
what to do,
I did not see these special edition back here
and it’s really affordable
costing the same price as the plain edition
seriously those so called duty free chocolate at
airport is making me sick
always the same designs
still the sport and famous series
not to mention, the price
local supermarket is the best place to
really find out what local life is all about
and my dad,
he is a fan of the preserved duck, fish,
mushroom, Chinese sausage….
well.. I am fine with it
as long as he is not buying ridiculously a lot
in major supermarkets, convenience shops
and even bookstores
they do not offer free plastic bags
therefore bring your own shopping bags
it’s a mandatory ban nationwide since 2008
isn’t that kinda good
back home
on the contrary
found my Kungfu canvas shoes with ethnic print
in TESCO hypermarket
somehow any slip on canvas
no girlie elements
I prefer calling them Kungfu shoes
well… the switch is quite obvious
shouldn’t I buy the M&M’s back home
and the ethnic print in Kun Ming
ha.. whatever it is
as long as I think it’s not bad a deal
the other version is available on
Clothing site of Tesco UK
saw it too, but of course
in between navy and ethic print
the latter is slightly more unique
but hey,
I got mine for 5 Pounds (RM 25)
thanks to this pair of
very canvas-like/light material
butterfly flats
I found the ethnic print
felt a bit sorry and totally ungrateful if
I did not bring them back home too
and surprisingly
times flies when I was really busy these days
these two pairs are actually
my first and second buy for 2013
and oh, 1st quarter of the year is
coming to an end soon
a good start
should be able to keep my shopping bills
within the budget this time round
keep it down,
the girl who bought funny stuffs at random places
