retail therapy : day 3

yes, my days these past few days had been nothing but retail therapy. it's been awhile since i last shopped like hell there's no tomorrow.

it's not that i have that much to begin with, sometimes the cravings are just too hard to resist.

the satisfaction of seeing hasil rampasan money well-spent, bought shoes worn and dresses tak muat fitted nicely dan orang puji cantik

but today, i shopped mostly for household including a set of screwdrivers in pink! i wish!. still need a few tools to screw my already screwed up life the stuffs. i think a guy dropped his jaw and looked at me in awe stared at me long enough when i took the set into my shopping basket. it's not everyday you see a girl buying toolsets oke? :P

i'm telling ye, if you want to go shopping of sorts, flea market @ amcorp mall is the place to go. why?

you'll find almost anything from cupcakes to gramaphones (please look this up at dictionary.com) and old vinyls.

if you're an avid toy collector, cute figurines, transformers, hot wheels are here too, almost all are still in mint condition.

thought you'd never put your hand on that particular issue of marvel comics or dewata raya or alam perwira (i read this when i was budak hingusan a teenager) you missed when you were a kid? fret not! there were JUNKS of it. i mean a whole load that'd make a recycling plant guy drool with anticipation.

what i liked most about flea market is that you go 2h's for haggle (again, dictionary.com is just a click away) hunt.

you go hunting for a particular item. this may include some poking, serious digging, a little bit of testing, a wee bit of squatting, eagle-sharp vision would be a great help and the likes. you will never know what priceless item you will find.

when you got the item, you haggle. the price is not fixed and you still have the chance to bargain with the seller. the art of haggle is learnt after a few unsuccessful attempts at it. the idea is to push a little and pull a little, give and take a few. voila! you might just get the item at a much lower price and a much thinner wallet and a happy heart. at least for me, hehe. though it is to be noted that not all items can be haggled for.

i just heart flea market. whee! (though i spent a bomb huwahuwahuwa)
