Sometimes you just have to pamper yourself ....

Hi there,

After a disappointing event that i have attended on Friday night, weekend rest would be a good remedy for all that. Well, not quite yet .... i was asked by my wife to accompany my sis-in-law buy a new mobile phone as she needed some advise. Anyway, not until late in the afternoon that we started our journey there. Destination .... Sungei Wang Plaza. Expected, the traffic was terrible and i dropped them off at the entrance while i search for a parking space. Finally, i managed to park near the old Cathay cinema and started to walk along the Bintang Walk pathway.

Suddenly a strong wave .... kindda like a magnetic wave pulling me aside and within minutes, i was inside Low Yat Plaza instead of Sungei Wang Plaza. I took my mobile phone and called my wife saying i won't be joining them as i was in Lowyat shopping mall. So, off i went to Sri Computer to look for a new earphone ( my previous one died on Friday ) and while looking for it, i grabbed the Wireless Headphone as well (I needed this for the sake of my wife) :P.

RM14 (earphone) + RM27 (Wireless Headphone) that how much i paid for it. Well, it looks similar like this one but it's black in colour. It's really worth it as i tried it at home later and the quality is good too.
I was about to leave Lowyat when suddenly i remember i had a chat with my collegues previously about how we can watch rmvb files on TV with a special gadget called the HDD Multimedia Player. We were discussing about the price which cost around to RM250 or above. That prompt me to search around for it since i was there and no harm getting know the current price.

I went to numerous shops and the price were around RM199 and the most they can give discount was RM190. So, when i stumble around a shop with this uncle asking how he can assist me, i told him about a gadget which can play rmvb file on TV and straight away he pulled out the hardware and showed it to me. He explained all the format that it can run and tell me that it's the "IN" thing nowadays. So i asked if the price can be reduced and he say " I can give you RM180 for that" . Wow ! i said to myself, RM 180 ..... deep inside me i said i want it but then i told him it's still expensive and all this gadget will out date eventually and the price will drop in 2 months time. He paused for awhile and then asked me what's my budget. I told him My budget is only RM150 and he said cannot lah ..... I told him i have only that much of money with me and i can wait for the price to drop eventually. I started to move on like i was not interested anymore and then he stopped me and said alright RM150 for it. So i paid for it and head back to Sungei Wang Plaza to look for my wife.
From RM199 to RM150 - I didn't know i was such a good negotiator. :P

Altogether Rm14 + RM27 + RM150 = RM191

Sometime you just have to pamper yourself by buying what you crave for (only if you can afford it) and the satisfaction is indeed unimaginable .......
