on Thursday night
i saw the post that
they are having a flash sale
30% off for all Nike and adidas
on Friday
*
was wondering if
i should stay up until 12 AM
to see if there is anything good
but i felt asleep anyway
*
and i didn’t really check out
as i was kept busy
at another shopping site
on Friday
*
they deleted the post
by the way
simply because…
*
on Saturday
they add another 10%
*
and i took interest in these
*
yeah the promo code works
*
the first pair in the list
is a pair of Peanuts X Vans
launched way back
but i decided not to proceed
as i am not going to wear anyway
and size 6 is kinda small
my Vans are US 7
*
i went to check out my sneakers
to confirm the size for my
Air Max and Stan Smith
and yeah they are quite dirty
and i think i deserve new pairs
*
and my sis has been borrowing
Stan Smith from me
so i am sure she will benefit
if i were to get a new pair
*
ssshh…
don’t tell anyone i dirty them
on purpose
*
i thought i am good
by proceeding with
Air Max and Stan Smith only
so i wanted to check out
with the two
*
to discover that
the payment system is kinda funny
they directed me to PayPal
i logged in to PayPal
but was not allowed to
use my PayPal balance
was directed to card details
*
this is somehow un-user-friendly
most shopping sites already allow
direct internet banking
and local payment company
why taking the trouble to
go through PayPal
and yet using PayPal credit
is not even an option
*
so i put it on hold
thank goodness i did
when i re-opened on a laptop
to see if they offer other
payment method
*
i realized that
it was all wrong to
order Air Max at 6.5
as that’s US Women’s
which is way different
from UK 6.5
*
so i re-checked Air Max
and guess i have to give up
as they are left with
US Women 6.5 only
*
so i went on to check out the rest
and ended u finding Air Presto
i have always been impressed
by the design of Air Presto
and it seems to make a good pair
for travelling without being afraid
of the dirt, mud and so on
as compared to my usual whites
*
i can’t get the calculation right
40% off Stan Smith
and it doesn’t include Air Presto
as it’s already discounted
why are they taking 271.60 off
anyway just shut up and take my money
because 427.40 is my birthday
so….
*
i checked out anyway
in spite of the un-user-friendly
payment method via PayPal
*
oh gosh
i checked out Stan Smith
in the fist place because
one of our member in
Carly at the Unicorns
are without a pair
*
so i was telling her
to grab hers there
*
i ended up getting a pair
and no i mean two
*
then i told another friend
of my about the sale
she is my usual shopping mate
so she was asking
what if the offer 50% the next day
*
i said it depends on your luck then
if the sizes are still available
true to her word
oh my
i wouldn’t wanna check
i hope mine are out of size
by now
*
i am thankful enough for
getting two pairs at
less than 500 MYR
cheers
*
delivery was a bit problematic
my friend who ordered on the same day
received her on Tuesday
and her city was way further
yet mine was still pending
*
i even consulted a friend
who used to work at FedEx
and he was asking me if
this parcel is really from
a local address?
Because FedEx doesn’t actually
provide local courier service
*
i was like
yeah the address is
from the mall we frequently went
i.e. their physical store
*
i should have picked in-store collection
and get someone to pick up
on behalf
and that would save me 20 MYR
this is not of satisfactory
given that it’s FedEx
*
but why the delay, though
nevertheless received it
on Wednesday afternoon
in good condition
*
the fun(ny) part about
online shopping is
somehow something will take place
during the delivery process
until i receive my parcel
*
it feels like
unboxing my lunch delivery
which consists of two dishes
*
the colour is sharper than I thought
but it’s not going to be
my everyday sneakers, anyway
so it’s okay as long as
it’s comfie for my hiking, walking etc
and more dust-resistant as compared to
my all white and canvas sneakers
*
this is for my sister
*
to thank her for the
adidas watch and Coach pouch
she bought me at Tokyo
oh my i haven’t blogged
a single thing about Tokyo and
my next trip is in 10 days
*
don’t you think this is an unfair trade
*
and we did buy another blue one
which will supposedly
go well with my
navy blue Stan Smith
but the watch is nowhere
to be found, though
*
