One after Another X Both Online and In-Store: Damn, Shopping Issues

i don’t know what’s with

my luck these days that

i have been facing

a lot of issues with

online as well as in-store

shopping one after another

*

Refund Issue

Brand: adidas

Platform: official online store

Date of Order: 4 Aug

Link: Wasn’t Shopping X Just Kinda Short of Shorts : 5 at One Shot

ordered 5 items and 3 arrived

they promised to refund for the undelivered

yet it took them forever

21 working days excluding holidays and weekends

well… i guess it has well passed that

*

sent emails and finally got

the official refund note

after one month later

*

Exchange Issue

Brand: Skechers

Platform: official store on 11 street

Date of Order: 9 September

Link:

Jingle Bells2 X Parcels on The Way 06: Skechers Washington Walla-walla Slip-On

ordered a pair of slip on for my mom

it was kinda huge for her feet

so i requested for exchange

email and request went unattended

so we sent the shoes back

but still didn’t hear from them

*

sent whatsapp text to the number

found under seller’s column

the fellow asked me to call his office

but in fact he is the one in charge

and he wasn’t even in

*

so i made 7 calls in a day

like he is away, he is in a meeting

he is away at the warehouse

and he promised to send like 3 days ago

i suppose i have to

call another 7 times to find out

*

Missing Item

Brand: Kundalini Spirit

Platform: official store

Date of Order: 5 September

Link:

Jingle Bells2 X Parcels on The Way 03: Tibetan Bracelets

finally receiving the parcel

22 days later and wth

one bracelet is missing

it costs 20+ USD 

have dropped them an email

and let’s see what they replied

*

Check-out Error

Brand: Nike

Platform: in-store, Parkson

Date of Purchase: 26 Sep

Link: TBC

bought a pair of Nike shorts

and an adidas shirt for my mom

as we happened to have 40 MYR

worth of cash voucher

paid 129 MYR in cash

upon voucher redemption

*

felt kinda weird and checked

they overcharged me

for the shorts that is

50% off simply because

the promoter forgot to

marked a cross at the

original price tag

*

similar issue happened

last month when i

bought Little Pony pajamas

for the kid at home

discounted price tag was

missing from the one i got

so i paid 59.90 MYR

instead of 25.00 MYR

*

Rebate Issue

Brand: Guardian / CIMB

Platform: in-store

they were having some

30% cash rebate for card users

but the rebate would only be

reflected in the account like

during the end of next month

upon purchase

*

but it turned out that

there wasn’t any rebate

and it was way too long

i don’t think

i even kept the receipt

well that gives me more reasons

to jump over to Watsons and

enjoy instant cash rebate

from their online store

*

i have no idea if

they just happened to

happen at the same time or

it’s a sign that

i should so totally stop shopping

Cotton On X Billabong: More from Zalora

have been wanting to

buy this Cotton On

Snoopy Tokyo tee

from Zalora

*

it makes a perfect shirt

for my next Tokyo trip

to the Snoopy Tokyo Museum

i mean yeah it’s going to happen

*

but have been

trying to find something

to combine into a shipping

*

then i found this

however i found it too late

to be delivered for my island vacation

*

so i shall wait

until i am back

from the trip then

forget it if it’s gone

and shall buy it if it’s still around

*

there came another new issue

can’t qualify for free shipping

what?

another 0.70 MYR

*

then something happened

haha the Cotton On tee

had a further mark down as

it was the final piece

*

should i buy this

but soon it was out of stock

*

or this

*

or maybe this one

*

wait

you should get over

this bikini craze

you just bought like 3 sets

within the past one month

*

then i realized

i have a 20% off promo code

however it will have increased

the minimum purchase to 95 MYR

*

i have browsed through

a couple of brands

Dorothy Perkins, MNG, Cotton On

oh man nothing interesting for me

*

and finally

decided to get

shirt from Esprit for my mom

*

and i realized that

a dress i have KIV-ed

like months ago

is still around

*

maybe i should just get it

as it was the very last piece

*

and the reason why

i was reminded of it

was simply because

Rainie Yang, my idol’s gf

wore something similar yesterday

for her concert press con

*

so all so finally

i checked out four items

alright alright

*

*

happy?

perfectly

*

---

I ordered on a Friday morning

but well received by

early afternoon on Saturday

*

super efficient

unfortunately i wasn’t around

so my mom received on behalf

*

the loots are pretty fine

and the Zalora dress

happened to fit very well

it was my first piece

under their private brand

*

and the quality is

pretty not bad

*

hi Snoopy

are you ready for Tokyo?

*

bribing my mom

*

the perfect beach top

which looks good with bralette too

*

Lovely Krabi 11: Post Vacation Blue Treatment

I realize that

the best way to beat the blues

is to order something before leaving

so that you have something to

look forward to when you

return to reality

*

yeah i have three parcels

one was even ordered

very last minute

in the airport train

*

so i have not even

have time to blog about it yet

*

there you are

Lovely Krabi 10: Being a Bag Person

okay i must say that

it’s quite a temptation

that they are selling

some kinda love bags

*

and there are sling bags

coming in a massive selection of

sizes, colour and designs

*

i got one

for my niece

which looks like

*

hoping that

she doesn’t like it and

i can actually keep it for myself

*as cunning as a fox*

*

as usually

i travel with 2 bags

this time round

*

plain and simple isn’t it

wait till you see

what i have in there

*

yeah i have a tote bag for shopping

mini backpack for day trip

mini sling bag for essentials only

mini mini handbag for phone only

packable backpack in case i buy a lot

and the rest are self-explanatory

functional case/bag/pouch etc

*

goodness

so i don’t think i need

another foxy bag

and i hope my niece likes it

*

another 3+ hours to go

not sure if my battery will

last me that long

*

just now there were two guys

conversing in a language i know

about me writing diary

*

hey isn’t it common courtesy that

you shouldn’t peep into other’s diary

but who is asking you to

write it in public

*

Lovely Krabi 09: Pre-Departure Note

we reached here by 10:30 AM

it only took us 30 minute

as the traffic was good

and we was taking a van

instead of bus

and there was only one pick-up after us

*

our flight is scheduled at 2:25, though

a few more hours to kill

*

but i don’t mind

it’s better to reach earlier than

rushing really last minute

*

my travel mate is surveying souvenir

although we have decided to

take different paths

as we have totally different paces

*

even in the room

i always hang out at the balcony

as she has to turn off all light

in order for her to sleep

*

i am cool about hanging out outside

but the glass door must be

completely shut in order for the

air-con to be turned on

*

so we were basically

secluded from each other

basically most of the time

*

and we take turns to go out too

because it’s easier that way

she takes her time to shop

i have zero budget for shopping

and i really can’t get used to

how she is being so picky

*

and she was applying something

either the green ointment for

her fall in McDonald’s

aloe vera gel for her sensitive skin or

cocoa butter for her equally dry skin

*

even during outing

she was always with her umbrella

or under the shades

while i was always trying to

get more sun

*

at one point

it was so awkward that

she was trying to talk to

other fellow travelers

yeah basically we are almost like

two strangers who just met

simply because we rode the same van

*

but i have tried to talk things out

neither are good nor bad

it’s just that we are simply different

so there’s no way

we can travel together

not to mention staying

under the same roof

*

and i got frustrated

when i was trying hard to

entertain her but nothing seemed to work

so i got turned off and

choose to go on silence mode

*

but to wrap up

it was overall a good trip

the people are nice

the hotel is good

everything goes on smoothly

so i absolutely have no complaint

*

except being drifted apart

instead of closer with her

well…

kinda expect this to happen

*

it feels kinda childish

unfriending someone at this age

but i am nevertheless alright

*

people come and leave

for a reason

she is never really present

except being a hostel neighbor

for a year way back during pre-U

*

so instead of coming and leaving

this is more of like a crash course on

how you shouldn’t travel

with person you are not completely

acquainted with

*

thank goodness

the hotel was pretty good

or i can’t imagine what

would have happened

*

cheers to the balcony

which provides good view

on top of saving me from

all the awkwardness being

stuck in the room

*

and the weather was pretty good as in

the two day outings were sunny

it rained on the mornings

we were about to start exploring

*

also, before we left

no harm done

*

i might come back again

not sure when though

and i receive some information

about Moomin invasion in Bangkok that

it almost tempted me to go

like seriously

*

oh crap

flight has been delayed to 3:25 PM

and guess what

Google was telling me

way earlier before

i received confirmed info

via email and SMS
*

☁藍天白雲 X 小愛情❤：我看著你的時候ツ

明明長這樣

*

可大家腦海裡

都是這樣

這樣是黃偉文Po的

這個粉紅色造型來自他

女主人自己也有Po

不信你去看看

*

趕上了11點

DJ丹尼斯時段的首播

看錯時間了

聽了一小時的

曾之喬 X 炎亞綸的代班

*

其實也沒聽得很清楚

明明帶著耳機呢

*

其實過了12點

就可以下載

但我手上沒有蘋果手機

不能從iTunes下

*

然後第二天

趕上了9點的

還是代班DJ曾之喬

*

感覺有點get到了

那種藍天白雲小清新

而且歌詞也蠻清晰的

*

就只是“頭髮挽著耳朵

嘟嘴回憶很久”

這段我一直弄不清

*

李榮浩的歌都這樣

第一次不怎樣

第二次好像不錯

然後接下來就

單曲循環個上百次

*

我也不知道

是這首有點早

上一首《歌謠》有點遲

所以我還沒走出

《歌謠》的調調

*

本來就不應該走出來

畢竟最終這是一張專輯

嗯嗯嗯 就這樣

*

感覺這張

寫盡了人生各階段

*

出發 開始單曲循環模式

*

2019年9月25日

6：03 下班了

趕上了MV首播

劇情很符合想像的

討厭但都沒有李榮浩

*

那字體好美

怎麼知道是什麼字體

*

我起初以為是

《海邊卡夫卡》

原來不是 去找找

Lovely Krabi 08: Aonang Street Shopping

i wasn’t planning to buy anything

but for the kids and their mom

i.e. my boss

*

and my travel mate

was looking at clothes

and bags

so i just followed along

*

but she didn’t manage to

buy much during day 1

and got hers when

she went out alone

*

well i guess that’s better

since we have different pace

when it comes to shopping

and everything else

so we end up going separate ways

*

but first

during day 1

while i was supposedly

so called companying her

*

i ended up buying

quite some petty stuff

while she hasn’t got any yet

well..

shopaholic pled guilty

i should have learnt from her

*

like how she careful

examined every item and

later said no as

there were some flaws

*

and she was so concentrated

on examining the items that

she forgot to say thank you

to the seller before leaving

*

and a few sellers actually

expressed frustration

because she wasn’t responding

to their questions and offers

*

for me my motto is

just do it

as long as the item is right

and the price is within

your affordable range

*

and i would say that

i guess this pretty much applies to

other parts of Thailand also

*

the items on sale

are pretty nice looking

like it’s not something

you buy for the sake of souvenir

*

some are something

i actually like and

don’t mind using / wearing

*

and despite the stores

are offering similar items

they are different on their own

*

that’s one of the reasons

i adopt the Just Do It motto

you wouldn’t know if

you’ll find the same item

further down the road

*

and some pretty

hipster or pop culture stuff

and there was this particular store

i am almost falling in love with

everything in there

*

my boss specifically asked for magnet

and please she definitely wouldn’t want

some 3 for 100 baht magnets

and yay

i ended up matching a pair

that i really like

it was pretty challenging

as there were less left elis

*

*

moreover for me

street shopping

has a lot more to offer

e.g. cool bikes along the road

i wonder if they actually get to

customize their Fino and Scoopy

because every bike is pretty unique

*

and something to

drink and eat

along the way

from Family Mart and 7 Eleven

as well as street stores

*

not forgetting

some cute things

got this from Family Mart

*

okay done for first half of Day 1

with magnets, pouch, keychains

my niece has a fetish for keychain

but she is not as hard to please

so i got her some 100 baht

elephants keychains and owl pouches

*

photo in the next post

as i lump my loots for the day

together with those from Night Market

*

Lovely Krabi 07: The Night Wave

as i arrived pretty late

as in early evening

all i got to do is to

have dinner and walk around Aonang

*

there is beach

right across the road

and i don't know

somehow it is beyond description

*

like how captivating this is

it's rough it's loud yet

it's kinda soothing

*

like something magical

is about to take place here

let it be a tale of pirate, treasure island

and sea guardian??

sorry i am being so damn lame

*

and of course

i am so totally in love with my

Huawei P10 Plus

this is not a sponsored ad

*

when i returned again

on the final night

i somehow figured out

what's so magical about it

*

but sorry

it's just between me and Woodstock

haven't you heard that

magic disappears once it's known

*
