First Blood! Bargains Galore~

first of all, i want to say thanks to everyone who has read my blog. also, thanks to everyone who has given their feedback. all suggestions given have been very constructive and i'll be sure to take them to make this blog better.

alright let's jump right into the juicy stuff! after holding onto my reins for like more than half of the month i finally let go and managed to get some pretty good deals!

i actually made a trip down to queensway shopping centre to try to get a deal for the nike gym bag i saw in the stores but it was a rather disappointing trip. even though the shops there sold it at like 15% cheaper than the retail price at the nike stores, not a single one of them had the brown colour one which i wanted and only had the black one. (bleah~~) so i made up my mind and decided to head down to the nike store at wheelock place to get the brown one (imo, to get the right colour, it was worth paying the full price) i went down and asked the shop assistant for a new piece. after checking she told me the last one they had was the display piece and i was a little hesistant but then the nice lady said that she could give me a 10% discount for that piece! (wow~ so unexpected!) so here's the bag!

it's big enough to put all my gym stuff inside! (even my shoe bag!) next time i can go to the gym after work! and the strap is removable so it's super versatile! look at all the different ways i can carry it!

you can sling it!:

carry it using the handles:

on the shoulder:

and for the slightly more adventurous, like a backpack (it's a very japanese-y way to carry it):

totally love it! it's casual enough to go out with yet sleek enough to bring to work! nice~ hmm...maybe if you guys have any more good ideas can tell me. haha.

anyway, on the same day, i went down to taka because they were having their brand sale at the basement forum. everything was going at crazy prices! but i managed to keep my cool and just got this celio* shirt:

it was on 60% discount so i ended up paying less than $30 for it. (too good to be true~) just in time for the wedding. heh heh.

it is also about time i got a new singlet for gym because i've been wearing my favourite blue mizuno singlet a little too often. saw this on sale at the adidas store:

couldn't believe my eyes! it was on 30% discount at the official adidas retail store! even those shops at quuensway only gave like a 20%? lucky~
i can wear this with my adidas split shorts with red stripes! yay!

alright alright, enough with the excitement. i've gotta go get some sleep, need to wake up early tommorow for my dental appointment. so, ciao~
stay tuned for more updates! ;)
