Damn! Of course I will never resort to thievery! "Steal"as defined by Thesaurus, also refers to an advantageous purchase. After the earlier dim sum dinner at Swee Choon Tim-Sum Restaurant, we went over to Mustafa Centre. My friends always ask me about my frequent visits to Mustafa Centre, and I always replied that its cheap cheap cheap and I can just buy buy buy! Even when I don't have anything in mind, dropping by to do some browsing and sometimes testing (at perfumeries), can also be rather interesting. But for me, I also do some product reviews and price scouts at Mustafa Centre, then I benchmark it against other retail outlets. I have done a product review on Bagman Trekka, which I eventually bought. I will usually leave with a least a pack of muruku or snacks. However, I did not buy any food yesterday! So what have I got?
I was contemplating to buy one or more of these decent-looking sandals, sneakers at less than S$25. They do have some interesting names that are luckily discretely-hidden, such as "Paichi" (sounds like the chinese word for "outcast") or "Polo-CCino" (sounds like the local drink "kopi-cinno"). I even remembered once seeing one called "BiaoDouFu" (which obviously sounds like "beautiful"). Despite the infamous cool names, these footwear are definitely cheap and wears comfortably!
Good comfortable "Beetle-Bug" and "Ecco"-like designs at prices from S$16.95 to S$25.Durable? At that price, that factor is not a major consideration, but I believe they should last a few good months. if ladies can change shoes weekly, so can men!
We were testing out some perfumes and doing price benchmarking when I came across this interesting perfume/fragrance.
Looks like not only I need to shoot pictures like a photographer, I need to smell like one too! A photographer can sweat quite a deal during shoots, and definitely won't want to smell like a cow!
So what exactly have I scored during this trip? Some supplies for my reservist training next-week.
A classic "Bata-design" light-weight slippers for S$2. A roll-on anti-perspirant SPEED STICK deodorant for S$4.50. White-grape flavoured Shokobutsu shower gel for S$2.90.
